Bill, I don't stay at camp, but I have done the Weekend to End Breast Cancer in the past & stayed at camp there.  I wrapped  the roll inside my sleeping bag & then I used bungy cords to secure the sleeping bag to my dufflebag.  

The luggage is placed in collection areas at camp - usually in the same area as your tent.  If you mark your sleeping bag & roll with a luggage tag of some kind, it should make it's way with your dufflebag.

Thanks Herbie for the tip. I ended up using a ratcheting strap like you would use to hold thins on a trailer. I had a smaller one that I hooked to the handles of the duffle and wrapped it around the roll and sleeping bag. It seems to have worked well. Just hard to get in to if I need anything from the bag. I mad tags that had the same info as my ride id tag they sent me. I should be good. all in one carry.

Once you hand it over to the truck, you won't have access until you get it back at the end of the day anyway.  It all works out.

Good idea to waterproof your sleeping bag and anything else you want to keep dry. Stuffing them into 2 big garbage bags works well.
