This guy is definitely hitting close to home. Don't you realize that I'm enough to guard the Danish? (we are talking about sweets and not the country, right?)

For the rest of you, PM me your address and I'll ship you an information package out.

Crash - Sadly, I can't talk my wife into going. I'm down to just receiving "that" look if I saying anything about it.

I plan on bringing a few things as give aways or prizes. I told Rick I'll give them to him to deal with as he sees fit.

I hope to see as many of you there as possible...

I'm finishing up a couple of knives that'll be given away. Probably a few other things that I put together too.

This was my idea and now it's looking like I won't make it. The business deal I was hoping to pull off this past weekend didn't payoff liked I'd hoped. That is what I was going to use to fund this excursion. I looking into alternative financing means. So there is still a good possibilty I'll make it.

We will keep our fingers crossed. Looks like just a few of us are going to be exchanging all these knives and eating all those Danish (sweets, not the country).

Rick... I heard a rumor that you are a sweetaholic thats the reason for the added security, A "small snack" for you is a dozen doughnuts. Any truth to the roumor?? LOL

I hope that you can make it. And to anybody else within driving distance - even if you can't spend the weekend, come on out for the day.

So that's why Dunkin Doughnuts locks the door and turns out the lights every time I drive by.

Bump..... Was bored thought I'd keep the thread going I am making some cache tubes to bring 6"x2' and 6"x3' maybe some 4"x? if I can.

I'm glad you bumped this. I was thinking about it this morning and forget to bump it myself.

We are T-minus four (4) weeks and counting (plus a few days). The dates again are August 14, 15, and 16.

The average highs for those dates are 83F. The average low 62F. The record high is 95F and the record low is 45F. It looks like we'll be on a waning moon so bring your lanterns.:) (or torches if Wychwood is coming. LOL)

Rick - how many requested brochures?
07-21-2009, 08:21 PM
Rick

A total of 9 but only three have sent me their postal address to send them out. If you want a brochure package on Greene-Sullivan then PM me your address and I'll send it to you. No charge (Hey! I'm a great guy).

Wish I could go,ya'll are close enough to me. I'd just like to meet ya'll,do some primitive camping, exchange ideas,jokes,stories... Some of the"door prizes" are pretty awesome too. but the camaraderie would be the best I think.

You're more than welcome to go. Even if you can't make it for the whole time, make it a day trip and stop on by.
07-22-2009, 02:31 PM
Rick

You bet. Spend a few hours if you can't spend more time. It will be fun. I mean it. It WILL be fun or I'll have your head on a platter......oh, sorry, I sort of got carried away there. Come on by! (I heard a rumor there will be Danish...the desert, not the girls).

Sorry guys,I will not be able to make the jamboree,as I am scheduled to do inventory at another store :(
07-22-2009, 04:43 PM
oldsoldier

Nell...... Sorry to hear you can't make it. Somebody better show up or Rick will get all the Danish himself and I do not want to be responsible for his gaining 50 pounds. I've heard his wife can get pretty angry about that kind of thing.

Have I missed some posts? I know the dates are august 14-16 at Greene-sullivan S.P.
Bu has a time and place to meet been decided? Or exactly what area we'll camp? As I said before unless something changes i can arrive late morning to help get stuff together if anyone needs me to do so just let me know.
07-22-2009, 04:51 PM
Rick

I posted some aerial pics of the place starting on post 222. I'm going to try and setup as far in from the main road as possible. It was pretty quiet there and close to a couple of water faucets. I'm going down Friday morning and set up. I'll post a pic of my truck and canoes later so everyone knows what to look for.

Rick if you'll pm me or call me when the time gets closer I'll be happy to meet you there and help get stuff together.
07-22-2009, 05:57 PM

I'm leaving FL Thursday morning with TDW. We'll drive until we don't feel like driving anymore and then stop for the night. Probably arrive fairly early on Friday.

Rick looked at info you sent and on line I have a dumb question?? Are there showers/bathhouse in/near camp ground?? Had a friend ask and i said I'd check
07-22-2009, 07:33 PM
Rick

No there isn't. It's a primitive campground. It has pit toilets and there are fresh water faucets around the campground. In total, there are three campgrounds in Greene-Sullivan State Forest and all of them are primitive.

Now,now, I wish I could Rick. Sadly funds are lacking so I'll wish you all a very happy jamboree and hope a good time is had by all and everyone stays safe.
(Oh you could have a few beers and bacon sandwiches for me tho) and I expect a full and detailed report when you all get back!
Have fun! and make sure your torches have spare batteries!!

Bacon sammich and beer? Yummmmmmmm. Rest assured, there will be plenty of pictures - if we can keep from drowning our cameras (it's a long story). Detailed lies ---- I mean reports will be forthcoming.
