White Lake MINI ?

OK Guys it has been almost a week since the St. John's River Run. What are we going to do next? Memorial Day weekend is bad for me.

Donald

Memorial Day is out because of The Masters.
I'll touch base with ReidP and Dave Hendricks. Looks like maybe April.
Chime in on dates ya'll are available and if you could make an April date, so we can get a count to David deAndrade.

I'm about 2 1/2 hours from White Lake and I WILL BE THERE (Reid)the dates are wide open for me, so what ever is best for the masses is OK with me. (62 Wood could make it, I've been holding some stuff for ya)

I can get there in 30 minutes.

Jane;
Very cool to see you on here. Been quite a while since I saw you guys on here. Glad to hear you are still enjoying Dad's boat. You might need to try to get to the River next March. Very fun time!
Take care;

Cathie and I should be able to make it that weekend.
Need to identify a campground hangout. Maybe a place
with rentals like at the river run.

White Lake Motel and Campground

Those dates still look good to me. I should have the 83 put back together by then and be ready to put some cruising hours on her.

Oledawg,

I do not think there will be any day slips to rent. I bet that Hotel will have a place to tie up. This is a very small lake that you can see all of the way around. I do believe that you may have to launch every day at the one marina and launch spot. There is a fee to launch at this private marina. This is where the gas pumps are.

Keeganinio,

Getting a ride will be no problem.

Joe,

It would be great if you can come down.

All,

I use to go to White Lake every labor day to my Aunt's and Uncles home on the lake. However, I have not done this in 25 years. I am having to go on old memories. Also, Reid took a lot of pictures last year and they are on the site somewhere. Last year, I did go drive around (by car)the lake and check it out. It is beautiful. My uncle died about 15 years ago and my 90 year old aunt still has the lake house. However, I do not have access to the home. I did walk out on her dock last year to check out the lake. There are a lot of Correct Craft boats on the lake.

The Motels at White Lake Can be very basic. Some eveny scary. There are no major hotel chains at White Lake. However their is a Days Inn in Elizabeth Town which is only a few miles away.

I travel with my sales job so I can go down early and check it all out and take some pictures if anyone has any questions.

So that's it--20mph tops?
Man, we would be better off in coming to Oak Hollow Lake near me on Hwy.68.$6 to get in and go at it. It's small too. No houses to look at though. Just the HPU college chicks sunbathing.

White Lake is indeed very small, if a larger lake is needed you are back talking about LN or similar.

No, I am good with WL or HP, just making a comment if ones wants bigger, it is not gonna be either of those two. I am totally good with what is being suggested.

Anyone heard from WL CC?

   Marty,


   I think its time to put up a list, to get a good head count on
   "The White Lake Mini 2010".

OK guys.Good news.David deAndrade e-mailed me today with the green light.April 23-25. He wants to know the 'agenda' plans of our 'reunions'.He e-mailed another person for the Lake 'Tour' and history of the lake. Townsend Link is what was on that e-mail. Mr.TimD what would this 'Townsend Link' thing mean.?

Here's David's e-mail:
"
Marty,
I'm going to have Townsend get with you on this... I've been swamped !! IN a nut shell we'd like to provide t-shirts for you guys, trophies for a rig contest, a gift pack give away thing, and some support for finding a
a place to stay. We'd like to do the rig contest here at the dealership and Townsend would be available to help organize a tour of white lake for your cruise.
I'm copying him on this and he will be in contact with you soon.

And here's the Townsend Link e-mail:
"
Hey Marty,
I will need you to send me a list of the categories you have in the rig contest. Also send me just a general agenda of what you typically do at the reunions. Once I see this I will better understand what I can do to accomodate you.

    So now it's I guess the commitment phase.Start planning on your attendance and post your name and boat and people.
Then your ideas on the "Rig" Trophy's. What catagories would we like?

Longest Distance Traveled

Loudest Stereo

Most Original Boat

Best"Bling" Motor

Best Interior

Best Restored Boat

Oldest Boat

Newest Boat

Best "Party" Boat

Most Unusal-One of a kind-

?????

Ideas on these,and if the 'pot'luck cookout, or just some easy stuff- Hot Dogs,Burgers,Chicken.

I've asked Mr.Dave Hendricks(the Godfather) to help me out and along here as I haven't done anything like this, except for my Surprise 25th Wedding Anniversary/ 43rd B-Day Party Extravaganza. Now that was a night to remember! My wife thought it was her doing as my B-Day party, but I flipped in on her.

Back to the "Mini'-- Mr. TimD if you want to jump in here, since you would be local-- with the lodging,etc. I could use a hand. You have my # and e-mail.

     So let's get ready to 'RUMBLE'

   PS. Let's not include my B-Day in these plans guys--April 25th,1962

Getting the fees also says who is serious about attending.....

I think your heart is in the right place but charging a fee can bring in some liability implications, you're now selling a service of sorts instead of asking a bunch of friends to show up and hang out on the lake for a bit. For the current state of this affair I don't think it is necessary... that being said, I got nothing against helping a buddy out with some expenses...
