What do you hotel people think about blocking off rooms in Red Wing?
I'm sure we can stay at a decent hotel for around $100.00.

Yeah I'm nervous about it this year. It backfired on me and I couldn't get up in plane during the last run of the fall. It's still up north for another week or so then I'll be able to look at it. Maybe an appointment at Hannay's to give it a good once over would be a good idea!

I am a fairly new member. Will there be published anywhere detailed info on the 2016 meet? The main site has only the 2015 info. I gather from reading some posts that it will be at the exact same place as last year. Is this correct? Thanks in advance. http://www.cgoamn.com/3.html (http://www.cgoamn.com/3.html)

The choke on the carb was flipped around backwards so there was no way it was going to turn over!

That and the fuel smell/tank issue was all six stainless screws holding the fill/vent etc stuff to the tank were loose. I cleaned up anything wet and then watched gas ooze out as I tightened the seal. The top of the tank is dry now and I started running water through to wash out any lingering gas.

I'm hoping to get to a lake tomorrow or Thursday for a test run!

Last year I brought the RV and stayed in the concrete oasis, but considering tenting it this year to be a bit more social.  Question is what are the camping rates for us, and do I need to make reservations? I assume slips will be the same as last year.

You can park your RV in camping area, if you can get it down there ...

Not sure how many slip or RV spots are available , so maybe you should do it soon.
Don't think we could ever fill camping area ... LOL

Post by: Plugcheck on July 25, 2016, 03:41:39 PM
     Reservations were easy, basically just told them I was coming and needed a slip and place to put the tent.  I know we discussed at great length last year but some topics that should be reopened:  1.   Will there be a whiteboard, or possibility a webpage that would let everyone know what the group is planning.  For instance, I know a trip to Kini park will likely happen Saturday, Tim and I are planning to go to Hudson before when the water is calmer(7am ish), then head back down to the park to meet with group.  If someone could post then everyone would know.   Goes for other events that as a group are planned.  I'm on my own so I have extra room for those that may need a ride(Doug).   I like going out early and late, avoiding the mid day sun(OK, so I'm a Ginger).

   Secondly, will there be a basic area layout in the camping area?  Common area, wide lane for vehicle access to all campsites.   Maybe use some flags to mark off area for trailers, vehicles, and tents?   Maybe use the treeless area on the west for trailers, and last years trailer area for day trippers? 

Oh and BTW, some may remember last years wing dam incident, got a Navionics app installed and so far it is wonderful to have on the river, hopefully it will keep me safe on the Miss.

Post by: dorelse on July 25, 2016, 03:51:53 PM
I had thought about a Twitter account...easy way to post the days activities and also be notified if someone needs help.  Editing a webpage isn't very fun for those that need to do the editing...we're there to boat & socialize too.

A rough timeline for activities has always been posted on the website:  http://www.cgoamn.com/75.html (http://www.cgoamn.com/75.html)  I've found trying to schedule something to happen at a particular time is like herding cats...doesn't happen.

I do think (and folks said this last year) that we need to arrive at Kinnickinickinickinick earlier.

With Gregg back in action, he'll be happy to lead the charge I'm sure.

A twitter account though would be very easy (and instant communication) for everyone...

Am I remembering this correctly...didn't we have a hard time getting wood?  Or getting charged a crazy amount for it?
Title: Re: Save the Date - 2016 Meet!!! - August 18-21th
Post by: Plugcheck on July 25, 2016, 04:18:42 PM
Twitter would be OK, was thinking maybe just a event thread like this that folks post to inform others what is going on.   Don't want to trouble anyone to create a time consuming deal.    As for wood, we are now quarantined, can't bring any.   Is it possible to harvest some on the river, I could bring a saw to hack some driftwood?

Should we change the "Run to the Kinni" to say ... 9:00 - 9:30 ?
Is that enough time for people just going for the day, to make it there and launch ?

How about an "Email blast" with updates ?

I believe the consensus was that we need to leave earlier than last year.  Leave by 9:00 is probably a good idea.

Email blasts with the forum software doesn't work Gregg.  Too many people, it chokes the software and never sends anything.  Previous years emails, I actually have to generate an email list from queries from the back end DB server with some SQL. Then massage all the email addresses so they'll be formatted correctly to send out from the sites gmail account.

Going to need to either be a thread, a Twitter account, or some other cloud driven technology for folks to use. 

You want me to prep the blast email?

"back end DB server"  "SQL"
What did he say ?

OK .. Bad idea on email blast ...
Heading down / up to Kinni  at 9:00 sounds OK to me .

Maybe post a river map of how to get there at launch/dock/camp grounds for late arrivals.
Title: Re: Save the Date - 2016 Meet!!! - August 18-21th
Post by: Plugcheck on July 26, 2016, 01:18:26 PM
     Just an announcement on CGOAMN would suffice IMHO.   We stayed for hours last year, partially due to lunch, beautiful surroundings, lots of cool Glastrons, and a dose of engine issues.  If you post leave at 9am from TI, some may come from the north, others may join up, still others will meet us there.   An Email or message blast might be problematic, and I don't want to see anyone having to spend valuable relaxation time fighting technology.   My thought would be if Tim and I want to head to sandbar at 1:30, we would just post something like that on the daily thread, and see who shows up.  Of course after notifying members who are with us at Kini.

I think there was an agreement that all trailers should go in the open area between the camp ground & casino.
This will leave the area next to the parking lot for a common space with a fire ring.
Campers will also be told NOT to block campground access with vehicles.
I think me & my campers were the ones doing most of the blocking! 

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

I have a couple laminated river maps that we could leave in camp and draw on them with Dry erase. 

Don't you think 9am leaving is too early for the people that just show up for the day? If someone were coming even just from the Minneapolis area they would have to leave their house by 7:30 at least to make sure they could get there and launch to be ready by 9.  If someone came from farther away they would have to leave even earlier.

Should we possibly leave in 2 groups? one at 9am and one at 10 or 10:30am

I will ask Summer about Fire wood I know they have a bunch. Otherwise I could probably bring some.
Title: Re: Save the Date - 2016 Meet!!! - August 18-21th
Post by: Hyperacme on July 27, 2016, 09:50:49 AM
I'm sure there will be people that don't get the up dated info and show up at 10:00 - 10:30.
Some might be coming from other launches also ...

Joe ..
With all your spare time, would you have time to do shirts ?
Would be great if you could ...

Shawn ..
Last year they had and delivered us wood, but wanted like $20 for a small load.
I think Summer said it was free, maybe delivery charges ?

Jim ...
Ya .. there really isn't a road way through camp grounds, maybe keep tents and trailers (pop up campers) back a little farther from general path that leads down from parking lot.
Use where you and Joe were camped for the fire pit / group gathering area.

I'm going to update and send out the "Cell phone list".
If your coming to event and plan to venture out on your own, print it out and put a copy in your boats glove box incase you have problems.
Also can come in handy, finding people around camp, beach, launch, slips, casino ... Big place !
If your number has changed ... let me know so I can make corrections ...

There's no real registration from a club perspective Jeff.  If you're coming Friday, great, if only for Saturday, make sure you're in the water ready to go by 9, 9:30 at the latest.

I reserved two rooms thinking we had out of town guest coming.
They are not so my extra room is up for grabs.
It was reserved under the CGOAMN rate of $175.00 per night for a non-smoking double queen Friday & Saturday nights.
If no one wants it, I will cancel it by Thursday so my credit card is not charged.
Please let me know ASAP.

Jim

We had a great but soggy time. Too much rain but still got some boating in.
Even at 5 days, it wasn't long enough.
Thanks to all who participated. Looking forward to next year!

in spite of the rain it was a great event !
though the actual Saturday run did not happen due to rain most of the day Saturday.
we ran up to Kinnickinnic on Thursday.
Prescott to Muddy waters, then to the Stillwater bridge construction on Friday.
went out Saturday afternoon but only made it as far as the cove, hung out there for a while.
Saturday campground bon fire was AWESOME as usual.
and another great run to Kinnickinnic Sunday afternoon for the "hold outs".
so we still did Quite a bit of boating, and could have run more Saturday had we been ready to go when the sun came out.
i must add being at TI was a big bonus on Saturday when it poured until mid afternoon, the "swim up bar" and hot tub in the new water park made for a great pass time in the rain.

Those are mine.......welll........not really. I picked them up at the meet about 5 years ago after no one claimed them. So they are officially the clubs chairs. I can get them from you  if you don't want to hold on to them.

Nope, I think that's excellent...especially since Saturday was a complete rain out until late.
