I'm thinking about putting together an informal gathering of CCFans in the NE Ohio area. Maybe meet up at Berlin Lake, Salt Fork or even Portage. I would like to put this out there to see what kind of interest there is and how many we could get together. Since I've never put any kind of event together I am open to all ideas, suggestions and recommendations.
First thing we need to do is nail down a weekend and location. I am thinking about the weekend before the official GL CCfan reunion which would be July 9-10. Berlin Lake has a campground that I think could accommodate our group and would not have any problem with us drinking late into the night. Philabauns at Berlin Lake Let me know what you think. Like I said I am open to all ideas, suggestions and recommendations, so lets hear them! I will bring a grill and some chicken, burgers, dogs. |

We would certainly try to get out there Randy but anything before GL is out for us. Our summers so darn filled up anything would be a stretch for us but pick a date and put it out there. That campground looks pretty sweet.

The reason I suggested the weekend before GL I was hoping to talk others into attending the GL reunion!
Looking forward to seeing you at GL Alan! |

Joe,
It's right off of 224 in Deerfield. I only suggested it because I've been there a couple times and I know they allow alcohol. It's on the water and they have a ramp too. When we camp out at Berlin we usually go to the Mill Creek Campground which is run by the Army Corps of Engineers. It's a nice campground but they have a No alcohol policy because it's a state park. Now, I usually enjoy a few cold ones in the evening, but I keep everything wrapped up in one of my CCFan coozies I've never had an issue, but then it's just my wife and I and the kids. I worry that if there is a larger gathering it may cause more attention. |

There is a decent chance you could get me down there.. although certainly not the weekend between the holiday weekend and the GL reunion.. it would be a logistical nightmare for me. Iaughtnaut is also in that neighboorhood somewhere iirc.

I think Joe makes a good point. It may be a logistical nightmare for those who are attending GL and with the holiday weekend before... I want as fans to attend as possible. I think we may be better off with a date in August. How about August 26th - 28th?

We will most likely try to make plans to be there, any date is good for us unless something comes up. I will have my social event coordinator put it on the calendar when a final date is set.

Randy, Joe's right, I'm downtown Cleveland. I'm in. Date and place is really of no consequence for me. I was starting to get bummed because I don't think I'll be able to make Green Lake, this sounds like just what I need to get my summer back online. I will also volunteer to help you with the organization, coordination, and setup, whatever you need. I went to college right by Berlin so I'm pretty familiar with the area. I'll keep actively following this thread, but if you want to email me or call me directly, feel free. adam.deen@penske.com 440.552.3465 And if and when (hopefully when) this goes down, I'll make sure my whole crew rolls in...it'll be a good time for all! |

Damn it! I missed that. Ok, How about the weekend of August 12-14? Any weekend In August would work for me but I don't want to have in on the same weekend as an official Reunion. Let's hold off on the T-shirts. This is just a "get together" not a CCF sanctioned reunion |

If it involves water there is a fair chance I have or will race it in some manner. Threadjack: BTW Adam, you mentioned possibly making your way up here for a weekend this summer. The weekend of that race is always a good time. If it looks like I am going to need to be competitive then it slows down my watersports and partying on saturday a bit.. but Sunday always more than makes up for it. The race is centered around the park at the end of the lake and the party afterwards stretches from park out through the sandbar.. there are usually 2000 racers and at least that many spectators/partiers. |

I absolutely want to make the trip at some point, but haven't thought about timing at all. That weekend might be tough for me as well, both for a gathering, or a trip to NY, I got a buddy getting married on the 12th. If we do the NE Ohio thing that weekend it won't be a big deal, I can just pop over to that (I think it's in Stow or Hudson anyway), and come back to the campground later, but it would probably be too tight to try to get to your place for the canoe party. |

Aug 12 - 14 seems to be bad for Adam and Joe.
let's take a vote. Which weekend works best for those interested? July 29 - 31 Aug 5 - 7 Aug 12 - 14 Aug 19 - 21 Any of these dates work for me. I know we probably won't be able to choose a date that works for everyone, but I would like to pick the date that works best for the largest number of people. We need to pick a date by this weekend. |

Wow, this might be a CCFan get-together that I can make it to. I'm looking at a vendor in the Akron area, so I can make it "work" related.
