Due to the fact that more and more campers are attending the festival, the city of Kemmerer has decided to open up overflow areas to those who are unable to get space in one of the commercial campgrounds or the several Forest Service or BLM Campgrounds in the area. For these free spots there are no reservations available. Registration must be in person during the festival and are given out on a first come, first served basis.
These free camping areas are another reason that ORMF is the most popular festival in Wyoming. Please remember to be a good guest.

The Kemmerer City Outdoor Pool will not be available this year for showering. They did not have enough staff to open it this summer. The Kemmerer Recreation Center will be available for showering in the mornings on 7/22/23 and 7/23/23 until 11 AM for $5 per person. The Recreation Center is located at 1776 Dell Rio Drive, Kemmerer.
PANCAKE BREAKFAST - Available at the festival on Saturday morning. Provided for a small fee by the Kemmerer Rotary Club.
PICKERS - Ask about a Picker Pass. We'll try to group all those who pick and play in the same general area.
GUIDELINES FOR A GOOD GUEST
1. Keep vehicles off the grassy areas. If tent camping, park vehicle in parking area and carry gear to selected tent site.
2. Absolutely no fires.
3. Please keep your area clean and clean up all trash when vacating site.
4. If you have pets please walk them in appropriate areas and clean up after them. Doggie bags can be found at the entrance to the walking trail or at the festival booth.
5. Please depart by 11 am on Sunday.
6. Please use the port-a-johns, that are provided.
7. No open container.
8. No weed, please.
9. Be respectful of your neighbors, they probably don’t want to hear about
your epic night at 4 AM. Due to some shenanigans last year at Archie
Neil Park, there will be closer monitoring of this camp area.
Thank You For Your Help!
Tent campers will be allowed at Archie Neil Park (includes port-a-johns and a drinking fountain), and around the baseball field areas. Campers are not allowed on the baseball fields.
Note: The City of Kemmerer is asking for Donations for the use of these free camping sites… Please throw a little their way for their support!
ATTENTION: There has been a change to one of the free camping locations used for ORMF. The lot to the north of the event center was sold and is now private. DO NOT SET YOUR CAMPERS UP THERE. Colonial Street was part of this sale and is now private as well. Colonial Street and the lot to the north are not fenced off yet. DO NOT use Colonial Street to access or exit the free camping area which is now only located on the SOUTH side of the South Lincoln Training & Event Center. Enter and exit the camping area only from Edna Avenue on the south side of the lot.
