We could all go out 360 and meet Tim in Central Garage or Aylett. Take good backroads to the north side of the peninsula.

Caravan from the North would be good, Shaun.

We can always use more help on the build day. I have been house captain for my group the last 3 years running. this year I will be captain again but will also have an assistant. I am going to check out my house next week and see what we have gotten ourselves into this year.

If you are going to do that you might as well meet in Tappahanock and head up from there.

I have been to so many places and have had to drive that if it is within 6.5 hrs it is a local event to me. ( speaking of which canada is only 6.5 hrs away which makes that a day trip)

Unless it's the meet or the last weekend in April, consider me in if you're interested.

Build day is April 28th which I believe is the last weekend in April. The GTG is the 21st the weekend before.

Yeah the build day is only one day a year and it is done nation wide. So groups all around the country will be doing projects in their cities on the 28th. Its pretty cool and a lot of fun. Its hard work but at the end of the day its worth it. I am just glad this year I will be able to work as last year I was stuck only as supervisor since I still wasn't cleared to lift.
