Get together Bring Alongs????

[Danny]

Ok, the get together is now only 6 days away. It's time to start really getting down to the "nuts and bolts" of the get together... the EATS and DRINKS!!!!

We also need to know how many are coming, or some type of estimate.

We know that in years past, Jim has had wild boar meat to share, I don't think we can count on that this year.

So what do we all need to bring?

As I've said before, I no longer even own a cooler, except the one on my boat, and a little one that holds maybe 6 bottles of water.

I'll start....

I'll bring paper plates, paper towels, and plastic utensils.



I'll also donate some money if someone wants to bring some frozen hamburger patties like you can get at Wal Mart.

FINALLY.... don't forget our need to help little Tony and his sister out!!! Bring a lure, and a $5 donation so we can send an American Express Gift Check to the little sister for being so brave to help out her brother.

REMEMBER.... the donations are purely voluntary. Maybe we can set up some type of little box to collect the stuff in, and you can just drop it off. I'd think it would be great if we could send pictures from the get together to little Tony and a small collection of lures donated. We can send it to the family in the name of fishin.com!!

I'm going to be doing some practicing with the video camera down there and would like to get some video of every body that would like to be taped. I'll edit the tape and stream it from the site and put links to it from the discussion board. This way we can have a better idea of who we are talking to on the board. Eash person will have their fishin.com screen name listed which will be linked to their video.

I think about one minute of each person would be good and should inclued:

fishin.com screen name
real name
home town/county
favorite lake
favorate species
and a fishing tip for that lake and species

If any body has some better ideas, I would like to hear about them at Barren. Over and above this, if anybody has some good fishin tips, it time allows, we can tape those too. I'm limited on battery power but do have an inverter in the car.

See you there.

Surely more than this are coming... come on guys let us know!!!

I picked up paper plates, paper towels for napkins, and 48 forks and spoons. If we need more, I need to know so I can make another trip to the store.

Also, what about plastic cups?? Anyone? If we need ice, we can always run back to Ranger Bob's, right?

Also, I think it would be great for all of us to stop in there and tell them how much "air" time they get on this site. Heck, maybe they will want to donate a little something next year for door prizes. In fact, if Rodney and I don't get rained out on Wednesday, maybe he and I can stop by there and talk to them about this year too.

Also, picked up my new lure for little Tony. This will be the second one I have sent, but so what... the little guy needs us.

See you all there.

Hey Danny, I,ll be there, and I have an empty seat in my boat.

Calvin

P.S. Just make sure Francis has my trophy with him!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Danny]

Calvin, i'll be lookin' forward to seeing you again.

But if I"m fishing... it's not your trophey.. it's MINE!!!

i'll be there with bells on. i have an empty seat if anyone needs a boat.

[Danny]

Remember everyone, if you can.... please bring a lure and a small monetary donation for little Tony and his sister. I'd like to take pictures of everyone with their fish, and send those and the lures, along with an American express gift check for the little sister, to Tony and his family.

We focused on Tony's request for pictures and lures, but someone pointed out how painful the surgery was for his sister, and she too lost everything. Let's help her out. Even if we each only give $5, we can get a decent gift check for her.

This is totally voluntary, but I would love to send a nice package down there on behalf of fishin.com. Hopefully we can make some new friends and get them to come tell us about their fishing down there.

I have I believe a $100 donation already. I am checking with Peter on that.. I plan on bringing some beef and maybe some deer if I can find some in the freezer.. maybe some pheasant too. Ran out of wild boar and I did not make it to Okeechobee to hunt so I had no Boar this year. (other than Peter) I know I am fired AGAIN!
I will with the $100 pay for the Pavillion, and buy Beef and Drinks. $40.00 for pavillion $20 for Burgers $30 for drinks $10 Misc.
Can someone bring the catchup, mustard, mayo, and Tomato's?
Anyone bringing Fish?
I will be there Friday around noon. Wish Turkey season was still open.. LOL. Will most likely fish below the dam for Cats and Hybrids on Friday.
HEY.. I was thinking about fishing the tourney, but I have to set up... but if anyone is running single.. I might fish till 11AM and have you drop me off if that is OK with the rest of the guys..
OHHHH I almost forgot I guess I need to get the charcoal.. As I recall Ranger Bob had some really GOOD Charcoal.. some kind of hard charcoal .. or does anyone have any ideas..
Can you tell I am just thinking out loud here?
Let me know what I need to grab that I have left off the list..
Paper Plates anyone?
Plastic Forks etc?
We can drink out of cans right?
