Northeast Reunion – Need Feedback

For those who are planning to attend the Northeast Reunion in Lake George, NY, can you please register? I'm trying to sign-up new sponsors and it really helps to see the registration number growing.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Keith

I need to start putting some hours on my boat. I just bought a new barefoot boom, so I can teach you how to foot. Let's stay in touch and figure out a weekend(s) that will work for us. Ice, ice, go away!!! Ken

I'd be interested. Name the place. If anyone is interested in Sebago, I can point you to inexpensive places for the weekend, or no cost places for the day.

You have a John Deere NOT A LAWN MOWER!

    Mike swains lake is getting there maybe another two weeks and my sport will be in the water with me at work six days a week your welcome to use it. It"s close to your work to!Just stay away from my wife I already have the four kids.LOL

Hey all,

Keith great choice on the Reunion plans. This will be our first year to be able to hang out with the crew from CCF. I have been going to Lake George the last 25 yrs for a weeks vacation at a resort that the family really started skiing hard and of course behind a nautique. We bought our boat last summer from Adirondack Marine. Septemer 12-14th looks good dates for me and my father and I might be able to get the 3rd owner my brother to come too. We know the secret spots of the lake and when to go out. Just let us know where your planning on centrally locating the event will it be closer to the village or further north to Bolton Landing? contact me via skizzer@optonline.net for any questions.

The 69 Barracuda is still listed under Ronnie Caldwell and the 77 I am picking up in FL next week is listed by Justin Sayer... Looking forward to the 24 hour drive to the warm sunshine of FLA and a short boat ride before heading back NH... Can not wait for the ice to go away.

CRYSTAL LAKE in little Gilmanton Iron Works NH...

Sept 12-14 should work for my wife and I. We will be bringing a classic restored 69 Barracuda, and a beautiful restored 77 SN. This will be our first CCF reunion... We can not wait.

Both boats purchase through CCF! Thanks Keith.

Believe me, I would have been the first one to register for our reunion. I have a work obligation I can't get out of. I'm absolutely bummed about it. If by any chance it does change to the weekend before or weekend after the 11, 12, count me, Patricia and my boat in. We were looking forward a journey to NY. I look forward to the cool photos and video clips.

I will make a donation to CCF around that time to help offset some of the food or entertainment costs. Have a drink and burger on me. Looking forward to '09!

Mike / Kyle, I hope we can still get together over the summer to do some boating. Maybe we can do a BBQ weekend or something.

Well I am excited, forgive me I am jumping the gun... Do we know event locations or at least a central location we should try to book near? FYI were just under a dozen boat-in campsites left for that weeked on long island last I checked, nothing looked available at the battlefield campground but I didnt look too hard at the other campground in town. It might be easier this year to book boat friendly motels or day use docks this year to keep the group in the same general area and then scout out locations for future years while we are there.

Keith, eather of the dates work for me but I think September would be better all around. Less boat traffic would be nice. I live about 45 miles away from lake George and have spent manny hours on the lake. It can get really rough when its busy. I'm looking forward to going this year. Its ironic, I was just at Adarondack marine Friday buying some parts and was saying how they should have an event like this. This will be my first but certianly not my last! Can't wait.

Ken, there's plenty of time to reschedule whatever else is conflicting with that weekend.

Seriously, I understand that we can't pick a date that works for everyone - it's just not possible. Hopefully letting everyone know early allows for the best chance of scheduling around the event. Another benefit of the post-Labor Day weekend is that there should be less competition for everyone's time - summer weekends fill up fast.

So far, the support for the Sept. 12-14 dates is very strong. I'll give it a few more days but unless there is overwhelming objection, we'll be in Lake George on these dates.

Ken, I hope there's a way you can make it work. I truly believe it’s going to be an extraordinary event.

If seriously means stupidly, then the answer is yes. I've got the vacation time, wife said yes, and the daughter is still young so we don't have kid stuff on the weekends. I said why not. BKH

Bruce,
Both reunions are CCF events. Adirondack's role is as a sponsor of the event, just like MWCC. It's our schedule, our events, our show -- just better with their support. As Tim mentioned, they will also be our local connection to the area, coordinating group discounts for room rates, camping, Friday and Saturday night dinners, coordinating local sponsors, provide detailed maps of the lake, clue us in to where the calm water is, etc.

Taking place in a community like Lake George, this year's event will resemble much more of what Green Lake has been for the past two years.

I really think it's going to be great!

Lake George has some size to it but with running north-south and with the mountains along the sides skiing should be decent at least mornings and afternoons. Once we get a date banged out it will come together. I have always wanted to do some camping on one of the smaller islands on lake george, might put me too far off of the beaten path for this event but at least it will be a good opportunity to scout out the good islands for another time.
