Jon,
Any time other than holiday weekends or the 3rd weekend in July would be okay for us.
June doesn't seem to be very good because of the Buttonwood M&G in the middle of the month.
July or August would be warmer and the pool would be open, but it would also be the busiest time of the year for camping and we may have trouble getting enough sites unless we book early.
September doesn't look too good either, with school in session.
Memorial Day will actually be celebrated on the 31st in 2010, so maybe May 21-23 would be best.
Charlie and Dona

I just thought of something. The 2nd weekend in June and the 3rd weekend in August, Nascar is at Michigan International Speedway. All campgrounds in the area will most likely be full, so those 2 weeks won't work for the M&G.

I agree with Charlie and Dona, the May 21-23 week-end probably would work for us.
Though I better check with the boss before saying that

OK, the date has officially been cleared and chosen. Best of all it works best with Gateway too.
MAY 21-23, 2010

Fellow Spring Time Sunline Meet and Greeters….
We are into the “book it” time of year and will be glad to come, but we need one more Sunline to make it an official M & G….
Anyone coming? Anyone make reservations yet?
Want to get the reservations in soon. May is not far off. And like this weekend, bummer weather, can’t go camping,  can’t come fast enough…
So any interest?
John

I haven't done anything because I'm still waiting to see if I'd be living there full time for a few weeks. I'm thinking I might not though because it would be a long commute every day. There is a closer campground, but I haven't checked it out yet. Websites and the actual thing can look very different...
If my plan goes the way I'm thinking now, I'll have to pull the trailer about 35 miles to Gateway.

Hey all Midwest M&G interested parties,
Anyone made reservations yet? I'm going to be doing so soon but was asked why it seems no one has signed up.

Hi Jon
Due to other conflicts we will not be able to make the Mid West M & G this year.  Maybe next year though.

Hi Jon,
My car club, the H.H. Franklin Club, is dedicating a museum building at the Gilmore to the Franklin Automobile the Saturday previous to the Midwest M&G. For that reason, I may actually be in the neighborhood if I attend the museum dedication. I'll probably look for a RV park in Battle Creek with WES for the week prior to the M&G.
I'll let you know for sure as we get closer but right now it looks pretty good that I'll attend the M&G. I'll take the opportunity, while in Michigan, to see some of the excellent museums in the area before the M&G.
Rick

Jon,
Are we booking the pullthroughs again? Had a great time last year and looking forward to this year.

I think so, unless you would rather move to the back in's. Right now Michelle is holding all the Pull Thru's through March.
Oh, BTW, Michelle said they're out until the 22nd at Campground Operator's school, so if anyone tries to call/e-mail for reservations, you may not get a response right away.
Jon

Great, pullthroughs are fine. I will wait awhile to book. Right now it's hard to plan anything too far in advance with the jobs situation.  Charlie's been working through a service at the same place for about six weeks. The beginning of last week, they said the temps had a good chance of getting hired in. Then, at the end of the week, they said things were slow so they were laying off. They did transfer Charlie and one other guy to one of their other plants though, so he is still working.  We probably won't be able to stay for 4 nights this year since he won't be able to take the time off if he's working, but should be able to do Friday and Saturday.

Hi Dona,
That's great to hear Charlie missed the cuts! I heard either this morning or yesterday that the unemployment rate has dropped to nine something percent, so hopefully this is a sign that it's getting better!
Don't worry about missing the other two nights, I can only do Friday and Saturday nights this year too.

We got an email confirmation from Gateway today on our reservation.
However, they didn't indicate a specific site, just that they put us down for a site with the Sunlien Group.

Have some good news
We can now attend the Hillsdale M & G. YEH!!!  So it appears we now have 2 signed up and we have the quorum for an official M & G. It only takes 2.
Called Michelle and requested site 21 next to Hutch but I think Sunline Fan has that one requested so we are in site 22. She was going to put us in 19 but I remember the high bushes there and that my big awing might hit them.
So we in.
BTW, she moved back into the camp office today as many others are calling, just not Sunline Club. Any one esle coming?
John

John, great to see you'll be able to make it to Hillsdale again this year!
Hutch, looking forward to meeting you. Last year I was busy inside preparing fruit for the potluck and missed your "visit".
There are now 4 of us booked. I just talked to Michelle. We will be on #23 Friday and Saturday nights.
Looking forward to getting together again.
