2009 CCF Midwest Reunion - Green Lake, WI

Tony,
You may want to call the campground as I think that they are reporting that they are Full. But some are doubling-up on sites. You Tent camp or pull a camper ?

Hattie Sherwood Campground

A very official statement regarding the Thursday Night Early Arrival party has been posted in its own thread. All 2009 CCF Midwest Reunion participants are strongly encouraged to read said statement and act accordingly.*

2009 Thursday Night Party Official Announcement

*Proper action to include alteration of plans, acknowledgment of attendance and SIGNING UP FOR THE REUNION!

Mrs Wakeslayer will be there with her boat!

Glad to hear Mr & Mrs Buffalo are coming now.

Lewy, you will get the farthest distance traveled award for sure, unless Donovan shows up.

I cannot wait. St John was a blast.    Tim, the Doc has way of compelling attendance.

Dang, Guess Kim and I might have to fly up for the weekend as well.

Lewy, Mrs. Foot had the same doubts about hanging out with a slew of boat fanatics at the river run but after meeting Mrs. Buffalo and some of the other Mrs. she was glad she came. Already have plans to return next year to the St. Johns. I've run the idea by her as we do not have our girls this weekend and she is savy to it as long as we aren't dragging the boat with us.

Boat Doc has been... "Given me the Business" every time we chat about going so may just have to break down and head up there. GEE.... anybody know if we might be able to bum a ride off somebody? ( Boat that is)

Greg you and Amy dragging the pumpkin patch up there?

Lewy, thats a ditto from the Deep South.There are a few that will rack up 2500 miles to come and enjoy this outing, you have raised the bar to a higher level.
Are you allowed to bring any pets,sure would love to have a pet "Roo" Stick one in your carry on bag, Karen and I will give it a good home........Boat dr

Lewy, I'm looking forward to meeting you. You're going to have a great time. I don't like to leave the State of Maine, especially during our very short summer, but I've had such a good time at the 2 reunions I've been to and the CCF people I've met are such decent people, that I'm driving what seems to me like half way across the Earth to a place I would otherwise never go to. It's going to be a blast and your wife will enjoy herself.

I think a T-shirt would be fantastic. That way, you wouldn't have to represent all the time.

Pam would need a matching "Wild Woman" shirt as well.

WHOO-HOO!

Outstanding... Gald to hear that you guys are working to make it.
Greg, you and Amy interested in running up with the Reidp group ? We try to get up there Thursday just after lunch. Could possibly go a bit earlier but not later.
You really do not want to miss the Cookout at Steves. Great gathering.

Billy from LA, Brian from CA, and now Lewy from down under...yall go ahead and raise the bar for Amy and I when you get a chance.

Lewy - I am looking forward to meeting you. I have had good luck with Hertz car rental but they are a higher price than the others. You might want to check on a Brewers game while you are in Milwaukee. That is a great time, esp. if they are playing the Cubs.

See you in July!

Besides, when you have a custom swim platform like this...one should show if off, right?

Hell, Quinner isn't even signed up. Must be afraid of Ken??? Doh' hahaha.

Mark, and to all the other newly registered owners we've not really heard from,, it's great to see so many new people sign up for GL09'. Take a moment and get your boats in the diaries so we have a picture of your craft. Not only is it cool to see everyones boats (because we do love pics)but because they are actually made part of the boat show ballot that we use when voting for our favorites.

Mark, we'll be pulling for you to make it over from "down under". And for anyone else that needs any help with some unanswered questions about the area, lodging, gas, food, etc, please don't be shy in asking.

It's going to be a great time for you and your families...

Wow Mark, you are planning a great trip and one you will remember for many years to come.
You could spend 3 days or 3 weeks traveling between NY and GL. There is plenty to see and enjoy in the Northeast and Midwest.
I think it would be best to define the days you want to spend and then pick the important places for the available days.
As for the Camper,
Cruise America is a great place to start. You will be looking at about $100 per day for the unit and then $20-$25 per night at the campgrounds. You can use KOA for reference for campgrounds. But there are many other local campgrounds that are as good or better. When you decide what city to spend the night, then search for campgrounds in the area.
As for Hotels instead of campgrounds, you can get specials in may chains with stays. Ex.. stay 2 days and get 3rd day free. You would want to check out places like Days Inn and Red Roof Inn or Holiday Inn just a examples. you are looking at $50+ per night for 2.

I have been fortunate enough to get to go to Australia twice for work. 1st time was for 3 months in Chatswood, just north of Sydney. Cathie and I loved it. We rented a car and went different places each weekend.

My AIM mail is listed in my Profile. Please contact me with any questions and I, and many others, will help anyway that I can with your possible trip.
Hope to see you in GL...

Paul,
If so, just think of all the disappointed wives we'll have without your charming personality around to entertain them!
