Oxley Campout

About Me

The Oxley Campout is a week long family reunion held in Pierpont Ohio over the week of the Fourth of July. It has been held yearly since 1963, and has grown in size, scale and importance ever since it's beginning. This week-long campout is filled to the gills with music, great food, great company and, of course, beer. In recent years we have implemented a few new features to the campout. The most notable of which is Wine Tasting night. This night showcases some of the best wine to be had. All wines entered are home-made by members of the family, and many bottles have been award-winning wines in competitions outside family events. As the family grows, with an average of 85-100 names in the registry, so does the Campout. This is definitely a fine example of how a loving family demonstrates how family peace improves the livelyhood of all it's members.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Any member of the Oxley family. Any "Official" member of the family. Or, if you're not part of the family, and you are just interested in finding out a little bit about what keeps a great family ticking.
