Event Ideas

Okay guys, I think we should at least try and get together 2 times this year.

The best suggestion (thanks tim1) is a camp out for the dunes in silver lake. Tim says he wont take time off of pastor duty though. I scolded him for his lack of commitment, but later appologized, cause .. well It's what he enjoys as well.

Anyways. I'm looking for some other idea's.

I know were all poor. but if we save a few bucks here and there, i'm sure we can afford it.
Just cut a few nickles in half sorta thing ya know. =)

Maybe we should take a trip to henry ford museum, or something like that?

Most things I am into lately is Family friendly.. Camping is something that I would truelly try to get into, Henry Ford would be cool as well. Canoe trips with the camping as well.
But I am guesing with the spread of people, most events would take place in between ******* and Clare?

haha. That place is a ripoff man. =(
Lots of speedballers there. We always played back in the woods where it was free!!!

Canoeing is something i'd really like to do.
However, most events will be far south of clare. I'm one of the most northern members.
if anything will be done with UP'ers it will pretty much be me and the few there are, when i make a trip to my property. They are always welcome to attend events, but its so expensive, i cannot demand anything out of them, just ask they stay participating in here. =) cause they are members just like the rest of us! and we like to hear from everyone!

William, I like the Henry Ford Museum idea.

Question: Anyone going to the Bronco Graveyard swap meet this Saturday in Hudsonville?

I'm in for the museum. I have never been there.

Sgt, I was going to try and meet you there but I'm starting a new job and need to get some work done on my truck. If for some reason I get the truck done Friday I will email you. I have to go to Kingsley on Sunday to see a buddy.

Not sure if I should mention where it is, but if anybody is in the need for a utility trailer PM me.

I'm working with Tim1 to set this up. He says he has a place where we can camp, just needs to ask.

Maybe we can all raid his dads shop while we are there as well.

Probably be a friday/saturday/sunday deal.
That way tim can get some play in as well before he has to get his jesus on sunday. I figure any of you churchgoers can join him as well.
I'm a retired christan, so i dont' do that stuff anymore.
