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.

Since last chatting we have grown in every way including over double the number of RV’s that are parked here! They say “Build it and they will come” and it’s becoming a reality! We recently posted on our Facebook Page @astonesthrowrv and we’ve had a tour every day since, even sold a few more sites!

Hello and Welcome to our A Stones Throw RV Campground Blog where we chat about what we’ve been up to and how things have been progressing with our campground development.
