  • New for 2010 – Selling your entry to a Third Party is not acceptable and the entry will be rejected upon arival. You will be asked for ID when registering at Pridefloat. If your entry form does not match your ID, we reserve the right to refuse your entry form. All transfers must be handled by Camp Daddy Jeff. Contact him for how to proceed with a transfer.
  • EACH person participating in Pridefloat must sign a WAIVER (on the bottom of the entry form) that releases the organizers of Pridefloat and the contracted outfitters from all liability of losses due to theft, accidental injuries, or drownings in the river.

            OVER 80 DECIBELS:  (Really loud units)   NOON to 7pm. 

           MOTOR HOMES & CAMPER UNITS:       9am to 9 pm.     

           

  •  New for 2010 - VISITORS - No visitors at any time will be allowed at Pridefloat. – no exceptions! There will be a Master List of Pridefloat Participants given to the campground owners. If your name is not on the list, you will not be allowed onto their property – again, no exceptions.  
  •                     
  • RAFTS – Can hold a maximum of 6 people, but must have a minimum of 4 people in them or there will be an extra fee of $25 charged for each vacant seat (i.e. a 3-man raft will have an additional $25 fee added to the regular fee).
  • CAMPING is on a first come – first serve basis. Save space for your friends by bringing their tent and setting it up early.
  • ALL PARTICIPANTS pay the basic entry fee of  $35 REGARDLESS of arrival time. The basic entry fee will also apply to persons bringing their own canoe / raft / kayak . Pridefloat will pay for all hauling charges of your craft.
  • New for 2010 - DRUGS do NOT belong at Pridefloat! Leave your cocaine, mushrooms, meth, and all of that other shit at home! Drug dazed individuals run the risk of having their application rejected for the following year or being asked to leave.
  • DISRUPTIVE individuals who are asked to leave Pridefloat may be removed by law enforcement if necessary, and will NOT receive a refund of any kind, and will not be allowed to return for a period of 1 year following the incident.
  • New for 2010 - SQUABBLES & MINOR SCUFFLES – Pridefloat Camp Daddies can not be expected to take sides in these incidents. Of course, major incidents will be dealt with appropriately, but minor incidents and scuffles must be resolved between the 2 parties. If one party requests that the other party not be allowed to return, then BOTH parties must be suspended for 1 year. Most of these are a result of drinking too much alcohol in the first place! Control your alcohol / control your actions.
  • If Pridefloat Camp Daddies get excessive negative feedback about certain individuals or a group of individuals, then that particular individual or group may be refused acceptance into next year’s Pridefloat. This event must remain an event with positive energy and co-operative attitudes.
  • EARLY ARRIVALS will be charged a camping fee of $4.50 per person per night payable to the campground owners – not Pridefloat. Your basic entry covers camping costs for dates listed on entry form only.
  • YOUR PHOTOGRAPH will probably be taken during Pridefloat. Many pictures are posted on our Website each year. If you discover that your picture is on our Website and you want it removed, a simple request is all that is needed to get it removed.
  • PETS: Pets are welcome. However, if your dog constantly barks at other dogs, do not bring it. There are other dogs around and no one wants to listen to a dog constantly barking at other dogs!!! You will also be expected to clean up any doggie poop from your animal.
  • FUNDRAISING events such as 50/50 raffles or auctions for legitimate organizations are more than welcome. Please get prior approval before proceeding.

  • Pridefloat is a NON-FOR-PROFIT organization. All staff members are volunteers. Remaining money is used to buy the kegs of beer, ice, cups, souveniers, pay security at the gate, web-server and website updates, pay expenses, and buy free gifts for next year’s participants. ALL money is returned to the event in one form or another. Your Camp Daddies are not paid - so thank them if you get an opportunity!
