We stayed at the Travis FamCamp 3/16 & 3/17. We were told that after we got checked in they were closing the office. Part of the check in package was a note from the ODR Director.
In a nut shell it said;
Per base leadership guidance, many activities including Travis Outdoor Recreation (which encompasses FAM camp) will be closing effective March 16-27 with the goal to re-open on March 30.
With that said, all customers who are currently in the FAM Camp are good to stay. Please just note the ODR staff will be at a minimal to non-existent over this time period.

Doesn't this action seem counter-productive during a Shelter-in-Place order? Most of the people affected by this are not holiday travelers, they are full-time RVers, this is their home. Being told to pack their home and move during a time that everyone is told to remain at home just doesn't pass the common sense test.
US military bases forcing our nations veterans out during this time is a disgrace. I fully understand closing the Fam Camps for future reservations and stopping all travel, but not kicking out the veterans currently residing at the park. Allow vets to stay where they are and "Shelter-in-Place" until this situation has resolved itself.
Where exactly do they expect everyone to go? State and national parks are closing, military bases are closing, private parks if not full already will be filling quickly, leaving no where for the full-time RVers to park and hook-up.
Ok, that is my rant. Yes, I have also sent a letter to the white house and my congressmen and women addressing this concern as well.

Kirtland AFB FamCamp is closed to new campers- they don't take reservations so none too cancel.
Davis-Monthan AFB delivered a letter stating they wanted everyone to depart within 24 - 78 hours. They will refund any remaining days already paid.
