2020 Midwest Meet & Greet - Oct. 2 - 4, 2020

[JohnB]

Hi Rob and Kathy,

It will be great to have you back again. I have updated the attendee list.

Thanks

John

Reviewing the list of attendees in the OP for this year's Midwest M&G, it looks like we're the lone SOB.

We may have to ask JohnB if we can borrow one of his Sunlines so we don't embarrass anyone by not having a Sunline

Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones.

No worries Hutch, your not alone, your a Sunline Club member! You are always welcome!

You are very welcome to borrow one of the project campers. But, out of the 4 of them, only one is ready to camp in short of spring startup. The other 3 are sort of in "lots of pieces"... If you want to use one of those 3, your gonna need to come out here real quick and have an "extended stay". And then maybe, just maybe we might have one of the 3 all apart ready to go camping by October...

OR I have a few very large original Sunline 5th wheel front decals Jay gave me. They are like 3 ft x 4 ft I think. We can put one on the front of your Jayco for ya and you would blend right in. How does that sound?

Yes, we have a nice group of camper folks coming. Looking forward to it.

That might work - I also have one of the Sunline banners - could wrap that around the FW too

Though we have been segregated to a different loop - was that intentional
Just kidding.

Anxiously waiting for October.

Just talked to Kim and made my reservation for F&S on site 41, next to Tom and Mary!

FYI John, Kim told me they just finished renumbering all the sites. New site 41 is old site 22. There's a new map on their website, although it's hand drawn.

Tom;
I have 2 10x10's and a 10x20 I am a lot closer than you are, no use hauling all of that weight for several hundred miles when I am only 18 miles away.

Jack,

Thanks - sounds good.

If we could use ours also, it's not a problem for me to bring them along.
But I'll leave them home unless told to bring them.

I too have 2 - 10 x 10's and a 10 x 20 with a wrap-a-round I'm bringing.

Thanks Jim. I'll update the list.

Fellow Meet & Greeters!

We are 1 month away from our weekend get together. Yeh!!! It seems like it would never get here, and now time is going by fast.

We have had 2 members cancel and we have shifted some campsites to fill in the area. The campground also had to re-number the campsites since we started signing up.

Post 1 and 2 of this signup has been updated with campsite changes and the required COVID19 changes. Please see those 2 posts for details.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again. This year has been "different" for sure.

See you all soon.

John & Cindy

[JohnB]

I have updated the signup list. We have gained a friend and two campers had to cancel.

(Sunline Fan) Justin will be accompanying Jon again this year. Welcome back Justin! We also want to hear about the good things happening with your family.

(PTHutch) Tom & Mary had to cancel due to COVID travel restrictions.

(Hiller64) Rich & Barbra had to cancel due to COVID travel restrictions.

We will miss seeing Tom & Mary and Rich & Barbra. Hopefully next year both couples can make it.

Looking forward to seeing everyone who is able to come in a little over 2 1/2 weeks from now. Time is nearing!

Thanks

John

Sorry John for forgettting to post our cancellation.
We'll miss seeing everyone and making new friends.
We did transfer our reservation to next year, so we'll see everyone in 2021, hopefully under much better conditions.

Enjoy your time together and safe travels for everyone.

H'mm.... one has to watch out about those wandering camera's. Never know when they might just strike!

Jack and John were having a good ole yak about camper frames. This was after we had another good yak about Jack's nice new roof he put on.

There are extra rugs in the truck, you can come join in the fun!
