Campers, We knew with the strong winters end sun that the closing of the winter season here at the park was inevitable. The 2009/2010 Winter camping season is officially closed. We hope that you all had a great time and that we can do it again next season. Think Snow for the 2010/2011 winter season!
See you all soon, Mark

The park has received some calls regarding the wild storm that affected just about all of New England. I am happy to report that the park fared well. At this time there seems to be no damage.
Soon the park will be closed for the winter season. Please remember to be prepared to NOT be able to access the park till the May opening. As soon as we decide on the last day of winter camping we will post the information right here.
If you have any questions regarding your bills you may call the accounting office at Plow Shares Trust (1-603-323-8700) and ask for Nancy or Meg.

Winter Plowing will begin AFTER we get a frozen base down on the park roads. Please be aware that the park may not be plowed for awhile after any storm.
Expect
very difficult driving conditions in the park at all times and be prepared
for them.
Sites that are not being used for winter camping are used to dump snow into.
Expect that if you are not a winter camper that your site may be full of plowed snow.
Winter
camper sites, we will do our best to not plow snow into your site.
*****************************************
Please make sure everyone in
your party understands the dangers of the lake in winter.
Also local Streams and Rivers are never safe. Moving water does not freeze
solidly!
Please remember the
park rules and regulations this winter season. Be safe and enjoy.
If you have any
questions please call the park phone and leave a message.

If you are a snowmobiler please visit the local snowmobile club websites for up to date information regarding riding conditions.
The OVSC Ossipee Valley Snowmobile Club maintains the trail thru the WWS Park, south and north to Conway on the rail bed and to the west thru White Lake State Park to Sandwich Notch.
The SOSSC Scrub Oak Scramblers maintains the trail system east of Lake Ossipee to Maine points that is accessed at Camp Calumet. These clubs are both all volunteer organizations promoting the family sport of snowmobiling.
Snowmobile registrations and club memberships are available at Canoe King / Allsport Autoracks on Rte 16 just north of McDonald's. Visit them for your snowmobiling outfitting needs also. They stock helmets, clothing and lubricants to just name a few.
Skiers have a wide choice of mountains to chose from that are easily accessed from WWS. Closest located on Rte 153 is King Pine Ski Area. To the North, Cranmore, Attitash and Wildcat are all local big mountains with terrain for all ability levels. If you want more information for any of these ski areas you can visit their websites. Also you may email me for even more details of each ski area and what they have to offer.
Lastly we want to remind our winter campers that the pool and hot tub facilities at Samantha's Inn are available to you thru out the winter. Also visit Sammy's Paw Print Pub for great food and a warm atmosphere for those après ski and snowmobile get togethers.
Take Care, Mark at the Lake
We also have a new way for folks to get directions to the park if they need them. Go to GOGGLE MAPS. In the SEARCH MAPS field just type (Westward Shores on Ossipee Lake). The map of the USA will pop up. Click on the Teardrop "A" that is hovering over New Hampshire and you'll have all the info you need to find us.
FYI FOR OUR CAMPERS.
WWS is now able to provide Propane at an
excellent
group rate price. Some of our campers have already taken advantage of this
opportunity. We know you will be pleasantly surprised with the price and
service.
