      We will be arriving saturday morning and staying saturday night. If at all possible, we would like to be in the same cabin with Dan Cottingham (Boone) and Allen Cates (Brisket) as our daughters are the same age and know each other.

      Thanks for organizing, this is going to be an awesome time.

    This is great. Both my kids are at the Hawkeye age with Y Guides. I think this will be an awesome event. I am in me and 2 kids. One boy and one girl rising 5th and 6th grader

    This sounds awesome. I’m bummed that my kiddos and I can’t make it, due to a pending house move that weekend. Consider hiding a bunch of “gold” (spray-painted rocks) for the kids – they do it at Y-Guides Longhouses, and our tribe went bananas for it.

  26. Halfpipe

    Looking for Dads or 2.0s who have TALENT (or just willing to perform). If you can play a guitar, bongos, spoons or sing post below as we are looking build out some entertainment for Saturday night. Reply below…

    We would love to stay with Jim (Skywalker) Fagen and his 2.0.

    Halfpipe – Is there a list of items we should plan to bring, or do you plan to send something out? I’m guessing that each “camper” will need bed linens and towels, plus are their other items that might not be obvious or easily forgetten.
