Okay peeps, it's time for the Vermontville Syrup Festival Parade!!

Who: Avalanche owner and riders
What: Vermontville Syrup Festival Parade
Where: Vermontville, MI
When: April 30, 2011
Why: You know why!!!! It's an Avalanche Thing!!!!

Because Vermontville closes a lot of the streets during the festival I would like everyone to meet at 9am in the Charlotte Plaza then we can carAVan to Vermontville together.

I have made arraingments with my cousin again to park in her yard in town. Parking will be $5 an Avy. We can get pancakes and walk around town for a little while and look at everything there is to see then at noon we will head over to the parade line up area. The parade will start at 2pm.
We will be able to shine up the Avys in my cousins yard before heading over to the parade line up.
There is a car wash in Vermontville but it is closed during festival so if you need to wash up we can do that right in Charlotte. There is a big car wash with like 12 hand washing bays and 2 automatic bays.

WE WILL BE USING FRS RADIOS (walkie talkies way back when) TO STAY IN COMMUNICATION WHILE TRAVELING BETWEEN PLACES. CHANNEL 3obb

Charlotte Plaza
515 Lansing Rd
Charlotte, MI 48813

BigC Mich

MS03
Intimidatoruag 3
OBB and Twiggy

Take the camper. Michigan is always a great time. We're hoping to make it but work is crazy at the moment.

Right now it's depending on work. New schedule has me working Tues-Sat from 7am-3:30pm. I'm the only tech in our dept that works on Sat so the boss is a little leary of letting me take a vacation day. However, We will start a new 6 week schedule beginning that week so I could end up on another shift. Also, I'm still waiting to get placed in another department from our last surplus so the schedule could all be a moot point at the moment. I won't have a solid answer for at least another month.
It's about 4 1/2 hours for us to their place. Most of the time we stay at Hotel Bro when we go up but he's 1 1/2 hours from Kimmers and BigC's place. Makes it a little rough if we decide to stay later and party at their place. Small town area and the hotels are pretty cheap compared to the bigger cities we've stayed in. I've also had a generous offer from Kimmers about staying there but Twiggy snores really loud and I wouldn't want her keeping everyone awake all night.

BigC · « **Reply #5 on:** March 13, 2011, 11:32:39 AM »

We have plenty of Yard to park many campers. We invite everyone who wants to camp to please do so.
We have some power hookup and water hookup.

Twiggy snoring??!! If I remember correctly, you were the one sucking up all the oxygen in the camper in Indiana!! Those were some big-ass marshmallows!!

I was just trying to keep up with you!

For anyone interested in going, I've been to several Michigan GTG's and it's always a great time. This is the weekend after Easter so if you have school age children they may still be on Easter break. School may not be an issue if you're traveling any distance and would like to stay overnight.

Debbie and I are talking about maybe making the trip down that way. She just had surgery on her feet and should be anxious to get out of the house a bit more. It's a 20 hr drive for us but it looks like we have a few days off and may be looking for something to do. What kind of accomodations are around there. Would we be looking at booking something in Charlotte?? Not sure if this will work out or not, but we'll see.

you could stay in Charlotte. .....

what ususally happens .... we meet at 9 at the local listed above ..... then head to the parking spot .... chit chat some more .... before walking into town for breakfest ..... pancakes and sauage ..... then you can shop or head back to the vehicles and chit chat some more or clean up your vehicle before we head to the staging area for the parade .... then we wait some more ... 2 pm the parade starts ...we drive about 2 mph into town ... stop and go .... they mention who we are to all the people in the stands .... then we head back to the parking spot ..... chit chat some more .... some stay ... some leave ..... after that it is all up in the air ....

many of us have done this for a few year now and it really is a lot of fun .... we hope for sun and warm weather .....

you are more than welcome to join in on the fun! .....

We would love to have you guys come down for this event.

As Intimidatoruag has said, there are 3 major hotel chains in Charlotte. Hotels.com has prices of:

Super 8 ~ $59 a night
Comfort Inn ~ $80 a night
Holiday Inn Express ~ $89 a night

I have stayed at all three hotels and they are nice. (power outage nights)

After the Parade we wil head back to my place for a cookout and Bon Fire.

Well it looks like we have things all worked out here. Debbie and I are getting the golf clubs out and heading to Vermontville. Still have to book some rooms for the trip and see if I can get the dogs in the kennel. Other than that, it's all systems go. Look forward to meeting up with everybody. OBB, I'll pm you on Monday about my order. I have your address. BigC - I see your keeping the list up to date. It's Dueck on the other site.

We could make it a day trip, there and home the same day

......Only problem, do we or don't we bring the kids (Teens)? Could be home for supper or could be a late night.
So we're on the fence for this one....

Well the teens,,,,,depends on how into cars and trucks they are as to whether they would enjoy it. The parade itself is only a few blocks long and Vermontville is not a very big town but it's really a cool experience. If they have cell phones and live on them as most teens do, it could get expensive unless you have a plan that lets you use in across the border. The MI crew is one of the best to GTG with and a cookout/bonfire afterwards (weather permitting on the fire) is always a great time and a good way to spend some casual time with some members as well. I think BigC's house is about 15- 20 minutes further south from where the festival is.

oHIobellboy · « **Reply #30 on:** April 13, 2011, 06:47:22 PM »

I just added a line in the first post. If you have an FRS (walkie talkie/ sport radio or whatever you want to call it) bring it with you and put it on channel 3. This makes it easier to keep the group together when traveling from the meeting place to our parking spot and for anyone that is going back to BigC and Kimmer's place afterwards.

Well it's official I have to pass on this weekend....Saw some large orders coming into our shop at the beginning of the week and was hoping not to work on Saturday, but the news came down the line today.

Was looking forward to this one.....Looking forward to more GTG's to meet everyone.

Good news though, economy is picking up......Overtime $$$ = Mod Money

(Hmmm. where to start, where to start?).

I'm afraid that I have withdraw my "yes" rsvp. I got a call from the ex at 2 am yesterday morning and had to pick up my sick little girl. She's got all the signs of the flu without the stomach problems. I was hoping the fever would break by now, but it hasn't and I don't want to force her to make the trip feeling like dirt. Apologies. I was really looking forward to pancakes, but I'll have to settle for pictures instead. Have a great time, everyone.

Made it in last night about 9:30, got cleaned up and went with BigC, Kimmers, Al and his better half (Debbi) out for a few. Up at 6 for a quick bagel and off to the car wash. I think I need to go down the hall and beat on Didit's and recruit some help this morning.

Almost home, made it to Minneapolis in 11 hours. She was pretty windy ride but at least it didn't snow, yet! I'll go through our pics when we get home see what I have to add. Believe it or not, we were to early for the outlet mall near Chicago! Deb noticed there was a bit of free space in the truck.

We've been home for a little over an hour now and I'm trying to play catch-up with everything. I'm having trouble with my resizing program at the moment so it'll be a while before I can get any pix up.
