The water at the shower station near the camp store in Camp Scholler

In discussing the showers at OSH, what are those accommodations like
for the campers? What are the busy times and what would a typical
wait for a shower be?


The "Old" or "permanant" showers are block buildings with kitchen
sprayers. I find them a bit lacking. The portable showers (trailers)
have larger sprayers and I like them much more. The women's showers
rarely have a line :-). The airshow is a good time to shower. about
10 am seems to be a good time also.

The trailer shower in the far end of the north 40 (next to the Hilton)
was flooded with over an inch of water. Not sure if it was the shower
doors leaking or a real live water leak, but that was no fun sloshing
through the "lake". I doubt that particular trailer will last to next
year...

The ones in Vintage have full time attendents with buckets and wet-vacs.
The doors leak and they are used constantly for hours on end. The
person cleaning the women's shower this year was particularly good at
keeping it fairly dry.
