Title: Midwest Get Together - change of date
Post by: Ibow on June 26, 2010, 08:45:00 AM
This is posted on a couple other sites and someone suggested I post it here as well -


A couple years back a few of us from some of the trad bowhunting sites got together for a couple days of eating some good food, campfires and a little stump shooting in the woods near our cabin in northern MI. A number of guys asked me about it this past January at the Trad Expo in Kalamazoo and we decided to try to do another. The dates are Sept 9 and 10 and will once again be at our cabin near Luther, MI.


Obviously this is open to anyone. We just hang out, eat, shoot and talk about anything and everything.

Details will be worked out down the road but if you're interested, shoot me an email and we'll stay in touch. We'd love to have ya!

Thanks, Chuck

Sounds like a great time Chuck but I'll just be getting home from Alaska.

How is the squirrel hunting up there?  You just might see myself and my almost 7 year old that weekend.  It all depends on when our Michigan Longbow Association squirrel hunt is.

Chuck, Luther is just a little bit southwest of Cadillac in the northern lower.

Hey Chuck,
How's everything?  I thought I might run into you at the Jamboree over the weekend, but never did see you.  Saturday was great, Sunday was pretty soggy.  Luther isn't too far away - might try to make it also.  Maybe I'll bump into you at Elm Hall (you going?) and will talk to you more about it then.
Ron

I will be camping at the Elm Hall shoot with my family.  I really like that club.  They put on a great rabbit hunt also in the winter.

Hey Ron ... yeah, missed the Jamboree. I'm thinking I will be at Elm Hall, might take my daughter and grandsons. (should be interesting   :p ) If we do go, we'll probably go early on Friday.

Shoot me an email so I can add your name to the list - you'd love the group of guys that get together.  charles.deleeuw@att.net

I STILL remember your caribou story - that was a LONG time ago!  :)  

I'll keep you posted ... there may end up being a change in the dates. One of the guy's daughter is getting married on the Sat after those dates above and she's probably not into changing the date of her wedding.   :)

Yeah, don't miss those times with your kids Todd. Time goes so fast. There would have been other times for get togethers.
And yeah, send me an email - we'd be love to have you if you can make it. The group of guys coming are a real bunch of characters.   :)

Hey Jeff - send me an email if you're interested. We're about a mile and a half west of Luther on 3 1/2 Mile road. As a matter of fact, headed up there right now with the grandkids!   :)

Great invite Ibow.

The dates work better because of the youth hunt.

It would be great if I was able to stop by for an afternoon.

If you come by for just an afternoon, you'll miss out on a lot of good food, some good fireside conversation and a morning walk/stump shoot ...   ;)  

Love to have you come for however long you can Don. Feel free to bring a friend along. In the past we've even had a guy bring along his retired dad.

I've got an email list made up - let me know if you want me to add your name.

Do you have cell phone reception there?  I have to check in with my parole officer every 12 hours.

Thanks

Awesome, I might try to make it if I don't have anger management classes that weekend.  Sounds like my kind of party.

Don't miss out on account of those anger management classes - we'll have therapists on site.
