Event Coverage Where To Shower If Camping Offsite At Hershey Or Other Swap Meets ?

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by trulyvintage, Sep 27, 2023.

  1. A shower at most major truck stops is $18

    A Planet Fitness Black Card membership
    allows you full access to all locations
    nationwide - chair and bed massage
    equipment in the Black Card Spa
    is included - that helps after a long
    day walking …

    Don’t know about Hershey, but Iola has a shower building in the campground, a shower trailer in the swap grounds, and the local high school has showers available in the locker room for a small fee.

    That won’t help you, but it’s an example of the organizers catering to the needs of the customers.

    You can shower for $7 or $8 at the Hershey Park Maintenance locker room on the grounds.

    There are several full service truck stops within a few miles that have showers for a price.
    Same as when you use the shower at the Truckstop at Bonneville when you stay at the end of the road. A few bucks but worth it.

    Camping offsite? Like at Hersheypark Campgrounds? There's 3 shower bldgs there, even the old one is nice and clean. If you're just sleeping in your truck somewhere I dunno what to suggest. For the record I've stayed at the Featherlite Hilton many times. Yes, that means sleeping in my trailer parked in the overflow at the campground.:rolleyes: For the last 5yrs or so we've been sharing a cabin with our group of miscreants.
     
  8. Camping offsite like in a parking lot.
    I am on the road over 300 days
    a year hauling vehicles and most nights
    are spent in a Lowe’s or Home Depot
    parking lot.

    I started out fueling at Flying J and getting
    free showers and safe parking in 2006
    but things went to hell as truck stop
    chains started decreasing services
    and raising fuel and shower prices.

    So I got a Planet Fitness Black Card
    monthly membership for around
    $20 a month …

    Shower? Is it Sunday already?
    But seriously, I grew up with many week+ hunts.
    Even the yellow jackets won’t build a nest in my old hunting truck;)

    Sorry, but I haven't showered since April.
    I don't think another 5 days will make any difference.

    VR&C.
