Title: First event of the season
Post by: Revtro on April 11, 2007, 10:08:38 AM
I hope our whole club can make it to Cass on the 28th with DK.  I have a request.  Since almost everyone in our club has a Fish Hedz, can you all bring them so I can get a picture of us all wearing them?  It'll make a great pic and who knows, maybe Fish Hedz will choose to use it for a promo pic.

I'm planning of coming.  I'm also planning on bringing my boat if we need it.
If we don't need my boat, that's fine, I'll just leave her home.

What I don't know is times. 
What time do we start in the AM?
About what time will we be done?

I'm supposed to be in Milan for a shin dig for my wife's work around dinner time.

The park opens at 8am.  However, if we can get permission, we can get in early.  Can someone give Dodge Park #4 a call and see if we can get in early that day?  When is sunrise??

Update:  I had mentioned to Dan that perhaps we shouldn't do it earlier than 8 for 2 reasons.  1. Dan has to drive from Lansing to join us.  So it'll be easier if he doesn't have to leave so early.

2. It's a gonna be cold.. brrr... at least for the first couple of hours.  So as long as the park is still opening at 8, I suggest we make the meet time 8am.  Dodge Park #4, Cass Lake. 

We could still use someone to call to verify they will be open on time.  Normally they don't have docks in this time of year, but there is a good area to beach up right next to the ramp.  So you might want to bring some boots, just in case.  It can get a little sloppy on the grass.

If you can't make the meeting Saturday, you need to contact Jack or myself to let us know if you are coming so we can figure out the boat count.  We may ask some of the smaller boat owners to be non-boaters if we have too many boats.

I called the park office and the lady there confirmed the 8am opening time. If anyone has any other questions for them, the number to Dodge #4 is (248) 682-7323.

I"ve never been to Cass nor Dodge park.  I have a DNR, State Park, and a metro park sticker for my truck and boat.  Does this park require something else? 

Tom,
I am planning on coming to the meeting Saturday.  I can make photo copies of the Cass lake map if you think that might be beneficial. 

Also, I really don't care whether we use my boat or not.  I'm not hung up either way. 

I just wanna size=14pt]FISH!

Maps are a good idea for people who are new to Cass.  Dan may also bring some stuff to Cass that day.

They take the State Park sticker.  So you're all set.  Reminds me... I need to bring enough cash to get an annual sticker. 

Don't forget everyone to bring some $ for our special guest that day.  Let's hook him up.  More on this at the meeting.
