Are those the square tent/pavilion things? I've decided that those are a must-have for any future camping trip- 100sq ft of dry ground in case it rains! Who tends to have the best deals on those? |

Yep, those are the very ones... A must have for sure !!! They are available for $50 bucks on up... I think there are several types, grades... I think we all should bring one and make sure we have enough cover... Spring/Fall always seems like there's a chance, if not a more than good chance you're going to get wet...

OK gang...IT'S ON! After talking with Alan, we think it is best that we stick to the usual area of A40-A50. We know the area and think it is going to be the best for a social activity. If people get online early and book their sites, we usually have the whole cul-de-sac to ourselves. Great time for the CCF family! I got my site (A48) reserved and I think Alan got his too (A44).
I honestly don't think that it would be necessary to book another site just for a few pop up tents. I would suggest having a few with us just in case of rain or too much sun. I will have my camper awning out and will probably have a pop up too. Alan has a large awning on the Bounder too. There should be plenty of protection if we have a few pop-ups on hand. Lets save the sites for guests. I know our site is huge so if we need to make large protected area with total tree/tent coverage, we can do it. Those are just my thoughts. Do what you wish. Thanks for getting the ball rollin' Dave! Now I just have to get my damn boat ready! |

Todd,
Sounds good on the awnings !!! Makes sense.... Anyone who doesn't camp, there is a hotel we've stayed at about 20 minutes away. Holiday inn express I believe... Camper rentals are available for for an arm, leg and left nut This is a great time, great lake, with some awesome people.. See you there !!! Moj' |

No you don't need a reservation, that campground hasn't filed up for over 2 years but we typically book the entire A40-50 loop that way we can all hang around together when we're not on the water. I would book a site to be sure you're included, I believe you can cancel a reservation up to 7 days before the date so if your not sure book it and see what happens. It is surely worth being near the group in the evenings as have some pretty good times around the fire. |

The Bellevue crowd won't be able to attend. My fiance is running the Green Bay Marathon that weekend and apparently I'm going to watch...

Marathon? We'll drop her off 26 miles away from clinton. Sound good?
Its a roll of the dice for us. We've got 2 boat motors apart as we speak. If the Ski Tique is done I may try and make the Muscatine Boat Show that weekend as I've been trying to go for 3 years. If not and the SNOB is done we'll be taking that to Clinton for the weekend. Either way, looks like a win/win as long as I can get everything together the week before as we have a show the 9th-12th. |

Chris, lets get real... Sit at a boat show with all the blue hairs, or come on down to ski and drink beers with your buds in a "lake hot tub" ????? Doesn't sound like a choice.. Hook up the 96', drag a tent with ya and come on out. Gauranteed way better time than option 1... Moj' |

Chris;
Moj is dead nuts on. As much as I know Steve W. (62 Wood) would love to see a bunch of CC's at Muscatine, you will definitely have more fun in Clinton! |

Hey Fellas. We are looking at May 13-15, Im not sure if we can or cant make it that weekend yet, but if we cant were also looking at a June date. Possibly the 18-19 (good way to spend father's day) getting there the 17th leaving after the kids get out of school. Just tossing it out there, hopefully alan and todd will be around.

Im in Memphis on May 13-15. So we'll be headed to Clinton June 18-19th. Not trying to hyjack the event I'd be there if we could. I just hate to miss a spring run to Clinton, just giving a heads up if anyone is looking for another dip in the hot tub.

Ok guy, you're all probably right. I guess I can always swing by there on the way home, right?
96 should be ready to rock and roll. Got some new skins coming in this week and a few other bells and whistles this winter! |

We will be heading Clinton for sure, probably on Saturday and Sunday. We dont have a camp site res. yet. Do I need to make one or does everyone congregate at one location and party. We would probably only camp on Saturday night. Never have camped there, just skied. Looking forward to meeting you guys and having a great weekend.

Man, with the 80 degrees that is supposed to hit the area this weekend, the bug to hit the water will certainly be out of hybernation.....
It would be a good idea to book some space in the A loop. There are plenty of spots, but as it gets warmer, you never know. Just do the anit-rain dance and we'll have an awesome time... Kevin, are you coming down??? Let me know, we've got plenty of room on the boats if you just want to take a cruise down... Mo' |

Mark, you don't need to make reservations if you decide to camp, as there will be plenty of sites available, especially in mid-May. However, "A" loop is one of the more popular areas and if you want a site close to other CCFans, reservations are advisable.

I'm 90% sure the wife and I are in, along with my brother and his better half. I hate to miss a Clinton get together, so we're trying to make it happen.

Browsing back up through the thread, I noticed the 90s boats will definitely be well represented....
