Hi everyone! We’re kicking off our very first TSP-IA meetup at a central location–Big Creek State Park near Polk City (just north of Des Moines). We have reserved the Atlantic Shelter on the north end of the park. It’s half a mile from the beach where there’s a giant wooden playground, and boat rental. There are onsite bathrooms as well. We want this to be a family-friendly event, and there will be kids present. Please be sure to read the shelter general rules, and act like responsible grownups.
While we are welcome to use the shelter from 10:00 AM to 10:30 PM, we’ll plan on doing the “official” meetup on June 5th, 2021 from 3:00 to 7:00 PM (or whenever people leave). We’ll do an “eat whenever you want” potluck, so bring some items to share. Plates, napkins, and flatware will be provided. Also, would it be a TSP event without a barter blanket?
Suggested List of Items to Bring:
- Potluck food items (Let everyone know what you’re bringing in the comments!)
- Beverages (Alcohol is allowed, but not on the roads or in the parking lots. See rules link above.)
- Yard games (bags, balls, etc.)
- Lawn chairs
- Barter blanket items to trade
If you would like to donate ARRR to help with expenses, please send it to:

We look forward to seeing you there!
Matt and Owen
Please RSVP, so we have an approximate headcount. We will try to update everyone with estimated totals closer to the event date, so people can plan food accordingly.
