yogi boat Oklahoma and California Welcome New Jellystone Parks

Yogi Bear™ is coming to Eufaula, OK, and Pine Grove, CA, this spring!

 

The Eufaula campground is the first of its kind in the great state of Oklahoma.  This newly-constructed facility is located on the shore lines of Lake Eufala, one of the largest lakes in the region.  But when it comes to water, lake views are just the beginning.  The campground is located on a penisula, allowing for all waterfront sites, including 100 campsites and 20 deluxe cabins.  And after drinking in the breathtaking scenery, campers will love the many water-related activities, like boat, canoe and waverunner rentals, pedal boats, fishing, a water play area and a swimming pool.  Families can also visit the game room, catch a wagon or kiddie train ride, play mini-golf or see what's playing at the outdoor theater. 

 

booboo minerOn the West Coast, we've struck gold with Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park at Pine Grove - literally.  In addition to the great amenities you expect - a pool, mini-golf, arcade, planned activities and much more - this campground offers plenty of excitement right outside the gate, including gold mining.  Pine Grove will offer everything from tent and full hook-up sites to cabin and lodge rentals.  The park is undergoing complete renovations and also has plans in the works for a water playground.

 

Both locations are set to open early this summer. Check www.campjellystone.com for updates and specific grand opening plans.

Long winter days just beg for homemade, super-satisfying comfort food.  But busy schedules can make it tough to prepare Grandma's famous chicken pot pie.  Here's an easy two-fer recipe - eat one tonight, and freeze the other for a day when time is tight.

 

Chicken Pot Pie

  • 4 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 4 cups frozen Southern-style hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • 1 (16 oz) package frozen mixed veggies, thawed and drained
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1 can condensed cream of onion soup, undiluted
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 package (15 oz) refrigerated pie pastry

In a large bowl, combine the first 11 ingredients.  Divide between two 9-inch deep-dish pie plates.  Roll out the pastry to fit the top of each pie.  Cut slits in the pastry.  Place over filling; trim, seal and flute the edges.

Cover and freeze one potpie for up to three months.  Cover and bake the other at 400 for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.

 

When you're ready to bake the frozen pie, cover the edges loosely with foil and place on a baking sheet.  Bake at 425 for 30 minutes.  Reduce heat to 350, remove foil and bake 50-55 minute longer or until golden brown.
