Hi! We are back! It has been six years since our little family last went on an airplane trip to a warm place and this year we decided we needed to get away and recharge. It has been a long six years, development of the campground and operating it for the last three years feels like it has been more than just six years. We don’t take weekends off, we are very focused and determined

I think about my grandparents everyday. Maybe it’s being on a farm, being in the same place as them remembering them work. Sometimes I think it’s due to watching the kids grow and I wonder what they would think. I wish we still had time to talk. On both sides of my family, and both the in in-laws and outlaws have a proud military history. As we get closer to November I tend to think

A little over a month ago A Stones Throw RV Campground had the opportunity to host the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (RASC) 38th Annual Star Party. The Milky Way was visible from horizon to horizon thanks to neighbours, The Milo Fire Hall, and Canadian Natural all shutting off their outdoor lights for the event. Guests and Star Party visitors could not believe how dark our campground became and how bright the stars were as

Do you like birds? Do you know someone who likes birding? If so we have an opportunity for you to check off some Birthday / Mother’s Day / Christmas present shopping off the list. One of our vendors at A Stones Throw RV Campground Farmer’s Markets is an incredibly talented artist who makes life-like custom portraits of pets, she has branched (pun intended) into feather friends! Painted onto medallions of local wood, custom bird portraits

I was born and raised in a dark sky environment. Stars were always bright and vivid growing up on a farm. I remember hearing stories of people living in cities who have never seen the stars, I still think it’s hard to believe. To the west of us you could see on the horizon a yellow glow from the City of Calgary just one hours drive away. On a clear night you might even be

Hello Camper, A big event is coming to A Stones Throw RV Campground on September 5th to 8th, we will be hosting our first “Star Party” along with the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (RASC)!

Hi! Welcome to another A Stones Throw RV Campground Blog updates! We recently updated our website with new content and photos. When we write a website blog update we like to include some unique photos that you might not find on our social media platforms, and with these photos we like to add some “behind the scenes” captions to our photo memories, our personal pats on the back for getting another job done.

Hi! Welcome to another Blog update from A Stones Throw RV Campground. We are getting ready for our third season with several new guests joining us this year! It’s very exciting seeing things come together, we are well on our way in creating a quiet little camping community! We have attracted such wonderful people!   Last year we were lucky enough to attract a lovely couple who were very helpful keeping an eye on our

What do you plan on eating tonight? Are there veggies that need to be cooked before they go bad? Has the meat been thawed? What can we cook that the kids will eat, or at least some of it? We have these questions ourselves almost every day and it isn’t easy when you add in “and make it healthy”… Meal planning has become essential in not allowing our grocery dollars go into the garbage but

Hi! We hope you faired well during that cold snap! Then a warm thaw and now it’s cold again with snow! Gotta love Southern Alberta weather, sure keeps you on your toes! It gave us a little bit of a break not having to work outside in the extreme cold, it gave us a chance to catch up on some computer work. It sure made us think about those ranchers feeding their cattle, giving them
