Campground Fee Increase On Wildlife Management Areas
3/25/2008
Effectively immediately, campground fees on Pleasant Creek, Teter Creek, Lewis Wetzel, Sleepy Creek, Nathaniel Mountain, Short Mountain, Handley, Chief Cornstalk, McClintic and Conway Run Wildlife Management Areas will be $10 for a group of six or fewer and $2 for each additional person, according to Curtis I. Taylor, Chief of the Wildlife Resources Section of the Division of Natural Resources.
“The increase is necessary due to the increased costs in fuel, labor and maintenance. The expenditures required to keep the campgrounds open have far exceeded the income received at these facilities,” said Taylor. The new fees are commensurate with those campgrounds operated by the State Park system and the U.S. Forest Service with similar accommodations.
