ALF 2010- Who's coming????

Post by Dooleyoc-1 »

Hey,

ALF 2010 should be the best yet. This has been the wettest season of boating in East TN in the 14 years I've paddled so the water table is up and everything will be primed for ALF. I talked to Mark Scriver and he is coming down from Canada. I'm wondering who else on this board is coming down? I know Colin is working on a spreadsheed with cell phone#'s for everyone coming down.

I'm looking forward to boating with everyone. Also, in the spirit of ALF it will still be "un-organized" but I am looking at getting a room at Calhoun's one night for dinner where we can set up a projector and hook up a laptop and watch footage and slideshows of pics from the week. If Esquif is giving a boat away again we can do the raffle then too. I thought it would be cool to get everyone together one place at the same time.

Richard said he was goin to give away a Mohawk Canoe, I will try and get a hold of Buff Grubb at Mad River and see if he has an Outrage no one want, maybe Lenghty or LOngboat would win it and they could try out a short boat( for them). I might miss the first Saturday dependin on the Korean Airline, but I have vacation from work lined up for the last eight days. Panda Buffet in Lenoir City also has a large meeting room I think we could get for one night if anyone likes Chinesse

Also... what are the official dates? My boss @ work will be gone from March 26th through April 7th so I can't travel south during that time.
