Welcome & Congratulations. Going to Red Stone Arsenal by any chance? Great RV Park, some of the biggest sites we've had. If you don't already know about it, be sure to check out www.militarycampgrounds.us.
Where to begin on the tips???/
1. Don't leave the black tank valve open until you are ready to dump.
2. Since you are new at this, Dump a LITTLE bit of the grey water first to see if everything is hooked up and working ok, THEN dump the black water, followed by dumping the rest of the grey water.
3. When plugging and unplugging the electric cord, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, flip the breaker on the campground pedestal OFF.
As others have mentioned, ask for help from fellow campers and if they tell you something that doesn't seem right, check it out further. Just because they have been camping "for years" doesn't mean they are doing it right.
