Green Lake Campground

For those of you planning to stay at the Hattie Sherwood Campground, we are holding sites through April 15th.

As long as we secure enough sites close to the boat ramp, Friday night's gathering will be at the campground. I have reserved all the strategic sites in that area for our group. When you book your site, let Reggie know you're with the CorrectCraftFan.com Reunion, and request sites 30-38 (those in black on the map below).



Let Dave or I know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Keith

Thanks Alan. I forgot to mention that.

That would be camping trailers, right Alan? We had no problems fitting the truck + trailer lengthwise in a regular camp site last year. Im all booked up for site #29.

I booked sites 36 and 37, somebody else beat me to 38 but thats OK 36 and 37 are a closer walk to the goose blind.

Reggie just called me and I'm all set for 33.

When would you be be going to GL & do you go by way of Indy? I am leaving Thurs morn. I do not like Chicago so anytime I go to WI to the West I take I-74, I-39 through Madison . A little longer but better driving. Thats how I go with the coach whenever I go to Madison or the Dells area. Did GL last year that way.

Going to drive the Motorhome up pulling the 80. We are just off Lake Jordan in New Hill.

I sent you an email earlier about how you guys go up as far as when you leave and how often you stop. You must not have received it. It will be Cathie and I and our 2 mutts.

Really looking forward to the trip.... except for the fuel prices

Guys,
Quinner is right. It's all about timing..

WHATEVER YOU DO, do not go up through 94 and the Skiway to get to Wisconsin... I saw the pics of Reids crew (I believe) going into the city.. Screw that...

Stay on 80-94 to the toll way 294 and go stright up to the 894 bypass around MIlwaukee. Please trust me, it's the best route up to Quinners and North.. You just can't hit these Chicago roads during rush hours times... Hit it mid day and or at night, and it's wide open...

Keep the faith Mr. Behl (that is a long way out of they way coming up from Indy, Via Madison...

Just let me know when you're all coming up from the South, Because I gotta see this train coming through !!!!!

Most of the time when I have the coach in Chicago it is for a shopping trip or an afternoon Cubs game. I use the I-90, Stony Island, Lakeshore and Irving Park. Not bad going in but bad leaving downtown after the games. Have nt been that way since I-65 is closed at I-80/94 to I-90. Time will tell for I already have a couple of Cubs games booked.

Steve, I'm not sure I understand the logic behind your route. Are you saying you have a hard time with this?:



The route you mentioned is how we initially left GL last year with our group, and you're right it was nice. We came UP thru Chicago, (on the wrong road by the way) since we were headed to Quinner's place. However, when I went back several weeks later with Marshall to pick up our camper and left out late in the evening, we rolled right thru Chicago at 65 mph no problem.

As of now I am leaning toward the barefoot. The way it sounds, Green Lake can be a little rough & the barefoot will handle that better. Hopefully both are on the water by then. We shall see!

Greg, that's fantastic! And what a great beer(s) it will be.

Roger, could you please re-send that email to reidp@bellsouth.net. I don't believe we've decided as a group yet just when we're leaving. Last year I think Weds was our main drive day. Because of the length of the trip, I certainly wanted to have at least Thur-Sun at GL.

EDIT: Roger, would you mind if we put all the women in your coach so we don't have to make so many pee breaks? I'll lend you a set of really good industrial strength ear plugs.

Part of Chicago's downtown traffic problem are those rednecks towing trailers w/o brake lights just to get to Wisconsin.

Hmmm, thats probably a good choice... but I wanted to see the Skier!

The right one's working isn't it?    With only one light working does that make it half fast? Sorry couldn't pass on that one. Think I'll watch the convoy thread and see if we can hook up for the final hours this year.

If you plan to hook up with us, you will definitely need to make sure YOUR trailer lights are working as I've ridden in your boat. But man that trailer shore looks good!
