Title: Play BINGO Under the Stars in the New Mexico Desert – June 21 at Ka-Hoon Campground!
Looking for a unique and fun-filled way to kick off your summer? Join us on June 21 at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center for a one-of-a-kind BINGO night in the New Mexico desert! Whether you’re a seasoned camper, a BINGO enthusiast, or just looking for a lighthearted night with good people and laughter, this is the event for you.
🎉 What Makes This BINGO Night Special?
This isn’t your typical BINGO game. At our off-grid desert campground, we do things a little differently. The only thing you need to play BINGO is to bring five wrapped white elephant gifts!
❓What’s a White Elephant Gift?
A white elephant gift is a quirky, humorous, or secondhand item you no longer need, but that might spark fun and laughter for someone else. These can be silly trinkets, gently used items, or something unexpectedly useful. The idea is to keep it light-hearted and fun — you never know what you’ll unwrap! The randomness is half the fun.
🎁 Examples of great white elephant gifts:
- A book you’ve read and loved
- A funky coffee mug
- A puzzle or board game
- An odd kitchen gadget
- A gag gift from last Christmas
- Something homemade or offbeat
Everyone goes home a winner, and part of the fun is seeing what treasures others bring!
⛺ Camping Details
Camping is just $12 per site for up to 5 people. Come early, set up camp, enjoy the peaceful desert landscape, and get ready for a night full of laughs, connection, and good times.
Our campground is off-grid, powered by solar and generators, with a focus on community and self-expression. Nestled in the beautiful New Mexico desert just 45 miles south of Albuquerque, Ka-Hoon Campground is a peaceful escape from the ordinary.

Rainy Days, Movie Nights & Shower Builds – What’s New at Ka-Hoon Campground This Week!
Spring Storms, Movie Night & Shower Build Progress at Ka-Hoon Plateau Hame De Colquhoun
It’s been a cloudy, chilly, and rainy week out here in the desert, but that doesn’t stop us from planning some fun! **This Saturday**, weather permitting, we’re hosting another cozy **Movie Night** under the stars—bring a blanket and a chair! Then on **Sunday, May 25th**, we’re holding an **Open Mic Night**. Whether you sing, read poetry, or just want to hang out, we welcome everyone to take the mic and share.
**Shower House Update**
Building the new shower has proven to be more of a challenge than expected. If Brent were fully capable, he’d probably have it knocked out in a day. But this time, Anne and I are doing the building ourselves with Brent’s guidance. While we’ve helped with builds before, this is our first time truly taking the lead. Let’s just say—we’ve learned we’re much better assistants than lead builders!
We’ve been working around weather delays, high winds, and rainy weekends—not to mention juggling schedules. Progress is slower than we hoped, but it’s still moving forward and will be worth it when it’s done!
**Don’t Miss Our Membership Program!**
If you haven’t already, make sure to check out our **Membership Program**. Members enjoy:
* Free and discounted camping
* Discounts at our general store
* Free entry to special events like Movie Nights, Talent Shows, and more
* Priority access to campsites
* Member-only activities and gatherings
Our community is about freedom, creativity, and respect. Whether you’re a regular visitor or just passing through, our membership helps support continued improvements like the new shower, as well as all the events we love to host.
**Stay connected, stay cozy, and stay kind.**

Healing, Hustling, and Holding Down the Campground
Life has a way of shifting priorities, and lately, we’ve been in full-on healing and doctor appointment mode. While there’s not a ton of new progress to report here at the campground, we’re still here—showing up day by day.
Between medical visits and recovery, our hands have been full, but that doesn’t mean the campground is closed. In fact, we’re still open and welcoming campers! Projects may be moving a bit slower than usual, but we’re continuing to chip away as energy and time allow.
Sometimes, life steps in and reminds you to pause, focus on what truly matters, and give yourself grace. Thank you to everyone who’s supported us during this time—we’re still building, still dreaming, and always grateful.

Join Us for a Unique Off-Grid Open Mic Night & Summer Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground!
Kicking Off the Season at Ka-Hoon Campground: Open Mic Night & Upcoming Summer Hootenanny!**
Spring is slowly settling in here at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, and we’re gearing up for our **first small event of the season on April 19th**! This year, we’re trying something new with a **hybrid Open Mic Night** — both **in-person** and **online**. Can’t make it out to the desert? No problem! Join us on TikTok (details coming soon) and be a part of the fun from wherever you are.
We’ll likely start earlier for our in-person performers, then move online after dark. TikTok has a few limitations on songs, so we’re planning around that — stay tuned for finalized times and links!
Even though we haven’t made much progress on projects around the campground (thanks to the wind and a steady flow of campers), it’s been busy in all the best ways. Brent’s still struggling with his arm, but he’s seeing an orthopedic specialist this week — fingers crossed for good news and a simple fix. He’s ready to get back to using his hand and helping out more again.
**Looking ahead to July**, we’re excited to announce our **Halloween in the Summer Hootenanny** — an epic weekend of camping, music, and spooky fun under the desert stars. Decorate your campsite, join the campsite trick-or-treating, show off your costume, and even vend your handmade or unique goods if you’d like.
**Event Highlights:**
– **Live performance by Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band**
– **Campsite-to-campsite trick-or-treating**
– **Costume contest**
– **Free entry for attendees**
– **Free vending for campers**
– **$12 for non-camping vendors (covers the whole weekend)**
– **$12 per campsite/night (up to 5 people per site)**
Got a bigger group? Reach out — we’re happy to work with you.
**Ready to experience off-grid fun, good vibes, and a safe space to be yourself?** Come join us in the beautiful New Mexico desert. Visit our website for details, directions, and more:

Live Music & Camping Under the Stars – Advocatus Diaboli & The Grim Leafer Band at Mini Red Velvet!
**Spring at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun & Upcoming Events**
The days are getting warmer and longer here at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun LLC**, and we’re gearing up for an exciting season!
**Advocatus Diaboli & The Grim Leafer Band – Live This Sunday!**
This Sunday, **Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band** will be performing live at **Mini Red Velvet Underground**! With three new songs in the works, rehearsals are in full swing—even while battling colds. We’re pushing through to bring you an unforgettable show!
**A Community That Cares at Ka-Hoon Campground**
At **Ka-Hoon Campground**, we’ve been fortunate to host some incredible campers who appreciate the **privacy, security, and sense of community** we offer.
One camper recently shared their experience, suggesting we tell their story:
– They had trouble unhooking their camper, and we were able to provide a jack and assistance.
– Later, their vehicle’s battery died, and thanks to our jumper box (which also tests battery health), we discovered it needed replacing. After a quick jump, they made it to town to purchase a new one.
– They felt **safe and supported**, something we provide naturally but don’t always highlight.
These moments remind us why we created a **membership-based campground**—a place where you can be yourself, have your own space, and rely on a community when needed.
**Booking Reminder – Don’t Just Show Up!**
While we love meeting new people, we ask that all visitors **book in advance** through our website or contact us first. We welcome campers, members, and venue users, but as a **private property** in the middle of the desert, security is a priority—for us, our guests, and our neighbors.
**Members and campers are welcome to have guests**, but please give us a heads-up so we aren’t caught off guard. **We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to hosting you!**

Life at Ka-Hoon: Off-Grid Living, Music, and Community Updates
**Life at Ka-Hoon: Off-Grid Living, Music, and Community Updates**
**Daily Life and Projects**
We try to post daily videos, but there’s only so much we can show without becoming repetitive. As the weather warms up, we’re able to tackle more outdoor projects—but deciding which one to start with is always a challenge.
One big project we keep putting off is the **new solar setup**. The delays come down to a few things:
– We need several consecutive good weather days to build it.
– We’re unsure if we have all the necessary materials.
– We still haven’t settled on the perfect location.
Right now, our existing solar setup works fine, but expanding it would provide **more power for the studio**—something we definitely want. It’s not an urgent need, but it’s a project we’re excited to complete when the time is right.
**Advocatus Diaboli & Shamshini: Music & Rehearsals**
On the music side, **Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini** continue live rehearsals, hanging out, and singing on **TikTok and Clapper**. Sound quality for live streams has been a challenge, but after lots of testing, we think we’ve finally found the right setup!
If you haven’t yet, follow us on **TikTok and Clapper** to catch our live sessions, interact, and be part of the experience!
**Camping & Membership at Ka-Hoon**
