SJRR 2012

SURPRISE! Just last years LOGO with a little color added!

Figured I would come up to periscope depth , anyone know if their is any hacienda's/cabins still left so I can plan my next move....

How cool would this design be on a shirt.

Last year's shirts were awesome, is there going to be a sneak-peek for this year's? Or is it weekend surprise only? See you all on Thursday...

My thanks go out to those who are once again doing the heavy lifting to get this event going. I am looking forward to my 4th year down on the St Johns. Let me know if you need help with anything as planning comes along.

Tis the season for some to be turning in their vacation requests for next year, and if any of you are on the fence for the SJRR it is time to jump in, declare allegiance, and start recruiting confederates... With the Midwest reunion this year currently shrouded in uncertainty this seems an ideal event to make sure your CCFAN reunion needs are met early and often in 2012. The later start last year that is being repeated this year afforded us pretty good conditions for watersports. Water temps both on the lake and in the river were acceptable and air temps that time of year will range between spring like and hot like. While it is not exactly a bustling tourist destination there are plenty of “good” places to eat and we bring our own nightlife.

My current plan includes bringing down the boat and a pile of watersports gear that will be at the disposal of any in need, if lodging becomes an issue I can throw in a couple extra tents in the truck as well. Although, there are other local areas to stay if lack of space at Parramores becomes anyone’s limiting factor.   

As Tim alluded to, and as is common with any of these reunions, during the main event (Friday evening through Saturday evening ) the big focus is on personal interactions with your CCFAN brethren and things go by fast! So if you are looking to get in a lot of boating, sightseeing, or watersports it is best to arrive a couple days early -
     
Can’t wait to see old friends and make new ones..

Eric, hope to see you at SJRR...If you do indeed show,bring your tool bag . We will have a few boats and members that refuse to start come Saturday A.M.

PS to Marty...if there is room at the end of the line to drive the lefty..I'd love to again. Don't wanna take the spot of anyone who has not had the chance to enjoy her tho.

Came up with something in a total different direction. Gonna be Generic in Design. Meaning they can be used from year to year. He's putting them together as I type! Maybe today Friday the 16th--no later than Wed the 21st, they should be done. 50 of these are less than $25 ! That is with my 'mojo' worked in
Were any of the badge holders left from 2010? These are 3" x 4" and will be slip-ins. The prize is that they will be 'removeable' and placed anywhere you like them afterwards! Darn- I gave the 'secret' away- didn't I? Anyone want to take a Guess???

Marty, any luck on the I D Badges.

Trying to make plans on making it this year. Cathie cannot make it so it will be the grandson and I in the MH pulling the 80 or me on the motorcycle with a tent in the trunk.

JUST LOOK FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!
