Every weekend there is something new to see and experience at
Four Paws Kingdom.
If you haven't stayed with us yet, here's a short description of event terms:
Please note: All events involving food are "humans only" events. In compliance with health code regulations
and safety issues we cannot accommodate any fur-kids. Please make
provisions (e.g. crates) to leave your dog(s) in your
camping units or cars for the duration of these events.
Partys and Fests
.. are our specialty, great food, terrific
entertainment, games, fun and a wonderful opportunity to
socialize
with your fellow campers. All that and more is the essence of our
big event weekends.
Potlucks
Many evenings are dedicated to our special "potluck
dinners".
If you would like to participate, please bring a dish to share as
well as your own place settings and drinks.
Homemade is great, but
WalMart, Food Lion, Chilis, Pizza Hut, KFC, deli salads, bakery
desserts, etc., work also. The important thing is to enjoy the
company of
your fellow camper friends.
Catered
Themed Dinners
You've asked for it, we'll provide it, themed
catered events and mouthwatering food,
gallons of ice-tea and scrumptious desserts. All masterfully
prepared by our own resident chef for a reasonable fee. Art
and Craft Projects
We have added "fun-to-do" arts and craft
events to our schedule.
Please let us know on your reservation if you are interested so we
can prepare accordingly.

Is
there a better way to learn the secrets, tips and tricks
of
German (Old World Style) Cooking than from a real German
Chef?
For the last 8 years our resident
chef has prepared delicious, mouthwatering dishes for our
Oktoberfest and Harbor Fest Parties. For the first time, he
will share some of his favorite recipes, techniques, tips
and even some of his Grandma's secret recipes.
If you would like to know about
Rouladen, Black Forest Schnitzel, Herbed Spaetzle,
Stuffed Cabbage, Kaiser Schmarrn, Goulash, Knoedel and
Dumplings and so much more, this is the only place to learn
from a seasoned German Chef (no pun intended).
This is your
chance to learn about the roots of German home style cooking
from
start to finish. If you want to get down and dirty with a Hands-on
class this is your chance to do so. We will have prep and/or cooking stations with all the utensils,
spices, proteins and ingredients to practice. We
select, peel, chop, stew, roll, spice and cook together. At the
end of the day, we sit down and enjoy the meal
together with our fellow classmates. This cooking class
"Food" Camp Style includes all the spices and
ingredients, a recipe booklet to use at home plus all the fun
you can have cooking with your fellow students. Class length is about
6 hours on Saturday and about 2.5 hours on Sunday morning. This culinary Boot
Camp is limited to only 10 students. Make sure to reserve early.

Asian Cooking "Food"Camp
(this is a two night minimum event) |
Saturday
November 3 - Sunday November 4 |
Over
the last few years many of our campers have asked our
resident chef if he could teach them to cook some of his
savory, delicious and fragrant creations. This is your
chance to learn about the basics of Asian cuisine from
start to finish. If you want to get down and dirty with a Hands-on
class this is your chance to do so. You will have your own
prep and/or cooking station with all the utensils and ingredients to practice. We
select, peel, grind, chop, stir, spice and we cook together. At the
end of the day, we sit down and enjoy the meal
together with your fellow classmates. This cooking class
"Food" Camp Style includes all the spices and
ingredients, a recipe booklet to use at home plus all the fun
you can have cooking with your fellow students. Class length is about
6 hours on Saturday (including a visit to an authentic Asian
grocery) and about 2.5 hours on Sunday morning.
(This Food Camp will feature all new recipes! If you
attended our first Asian Food Camp you'll receive a $25.00
discount)
This culinary Boot
Camp is limited to only 10 students. Make sure to reserve early.
$125.00 p.p.
