We are looking forward to this!  Am curious as to how many of you are taking vacation time off work to attend this or are most retired, OR am I just asking a dumb question? :)

Okay podders all our reserved sites are now full. If you're still interested there may be sites open elsewhere in the park, so don't be afraid to call. The newest map is posted below. Another possible fun activity has come to my attention: 
Paddle for Pints, a microbrewery tour via kayak. There are 3 tours during our ERU, kayaks are available for rent if needed. Details below.



Thursday June 16

Hot dog roast/meet and greet, site #224, 5:00 PM. Dogs, buns, condiments and campfire courtesy of the Tollefsons and Mowerys. Bring chips, salsa, guacamole, etc., or other simple go withs for yourself if desired. Also bring place setting, favorite beverages, s’mores stuff and a chair. Stories may be shared, true or not. If we’ve heard your jokes before we’ll pretend we haven’t. After-dog drawings for free Michigan made goodies. Not sure exactly what yet, we have some stuff already but it will be a work in progress until the last minute. Trust us, you’ll like it.

Friday June 17

Guided vineyard and brewery tour & tasting. See details in previous post.

Saturday June 18

Free time. Go, see, do. Informal evening campfire gathering at site #224. Bring campfire food if desired. Paddle for Pints brewery tour via kayak 11:00, 12:15, and 1:30. Tickets and info at paddleforpints.com or see their Facebook page.

Sunday June 19

Last official day, no scheduled activities as it's goodbye for some.

Thank you Doug, at least I was able to run a copy off before you removed the list.

Call me paranoid but publishing names, hometowns, and dates on an open forum seems ill advised. That's info I would love if planning a home burglary.

If your info is incomplete and you want it filled in let me know and I'll update the roster.

Edit: I agree with Charlie, I removed the roster to be safe.  techntrek

I just got off the phone with Dawn at the campground. She will continue to hold site 206 for us, but sites 167-170 are THE LAST 4 spots open in the campground during our ERU. She's had several calls from non pod campers who want these pull thru sites during our rally, and she's turned them away. She asked me if I thought our group was tapped out. I told her I know of at least one party who's still on the fence but we agreed that they couldn't continue to turn away campers for open spots. 

She has agreed to hold sites 167-170 for our exclusive use through this coming weekend. On Monday Feb 15th she will begin booking those sites to non-podders. If you're considering attending you might want to go ahead and book your spot now.We'd sure like to see you there.
