Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

I wasn't really sure before what kind of salad I was going to bring. I decided I will bring pasta salad this year.

I will bring some Donuts for the AM....

rkillick

I will bring some brats and a desert. Question is how many packages of brats?

huston

I can bring soda, ice and some type of smoked sausage or whatever some one needs. I pray the weather is good or we may need a tent. I guess everyone should bring a fold up chair of their own.

I have a pretty nice 10X10 EZ up that I can bring....

Dan, I can set it up early if you want and you can hang sponsor flags from it and use it for registration...Let me know...
Did you have to coordinate with the DNR or the sherrif's office to use that spot from last year???

djkimmel

No coordination. As long as no other group is already there. No permits required that time of year, but odds are good there won't be any other large groups there on May 14.

If there is no one to be there to watch things (I'm planning on fishing :) ) probably won't want to set it up and leave it there all day. Maybe just in the afternoon if needed. I'll come in a little early.

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.
Unless clearly stated as such, opinions expressed by Dan Kimmel on this forum are not the opinions or policies of The Bass Federation of Michigan.

markgoetsch

I'll take care of the cheese and pickles.

Firefighter Jeff

  Hey Mike, and other coordinators,.  I plan on contributing, but thought I'd wait til it got a little closer to see what was still needed.  :)

Of the things that are still needed, I would say that the "Grill" ranks right up there, in importance. ;)

mikesmiph

I'll have the grill, its covered.

Cy

I will volunteer thedude, khefner and I to bring hot dogs and hot dog buns, bottled water and beer.
