Deadline and Registration

Hey All,

For the June 1- June 8th event.

Your comments in CB  last night  made me  realize accommodations may become an issue depending

 on how many of you are going to attend June's event.  I did some checking on more cabin rentals and

 options are getting very limited.  So I am going to need a firm commitment , in writing, from anyone

 that is going to attend by   FEBRUARY  15, 2018
.
 I am also going to ask for a registration fee of $25  to ensure your spot is held . I will need to know

 how many are attending and for what days, so we can plan meals and how much food to purchase. 

List any food allergies  so we can plan around those.

My email is landscaper2u@verizon.net    for registration and any questions you have.

Love you guys, take care and talk to you soon!    Aarrons/Don

P.S.  I have heard from a few of you telling me it's too far ahead to schedule time off for work.  I understand this, and will try to keep you updated on if there are any spaces available after the registration deadline. At this time the cabins rented have 14 bed spaces total.  As of 2/21/18  13 spots have been reserved.

Cost

OK , I've had a few people ask as to the cost of Junes get together so I'll try to let you know  what you can expect  to be responsible  for  , and what expenses will be taken care of on my end.

 First off, the cabin rentals were taken care of back in July. I had to reserve them early, especially the old ski lodge.   I'm taking care of basic supplies - paper & plastic goods .  I'm also going to provide the bulk of the food and drinks while at the cabins. Those of you who have expressed an interest in helping with the cooking, and/ or making/bringing a particular dish,  I greatly appreciate it!  Along those lines, if any of you have a food allergy,  PLEASE  let me know as soon as possible. We will be planning meals soon, and I want to accommodate  any ones needs.  A favorite food/drink list would also help.  Also along those lines, In the future  i will be asking for a firm commitment on number of people and days you will be staying so I can better plan on amount of food needed, as well as to determine if extra  sleeping accommodations  will be needed. If you have anyy other special needs, please dont hesitate to let me know.

Obviously your first expense will be travel to and from central PA- if you are flying in , there are car rentals available. If you are flying in to the State College/University Park Airport  and let me know ahead of time, I will do my best to meet you there, and can provide transportation for a limited number of people at a time.  The same applies if you are coming in by train, or bus.

 Your costs also come into play for expenses occurred during any day trips we might take ( admission or parking fees, meals, equipment rental,  or licenses  - weinerman  found info on tourists fishing licenses of 3 day $26.90 or 7 day $34.90 thanks bud! )  On the subject of day trips, this is going to be a very relaxed schedule thing - we may break off into several different directions at times depending on who wants to do what.  Some of the time I hope to simply hang out, get to know one another better.

 My email for those of you that dont have it yet, or didnt notice it in the first posting, is  landscaper2u@verizon.net      I'm looking forward to hearing from you, and meeting all of you in June !!!     Stay safe my friends,   Aarrons /Don
