Island Camping and Marina with the new bridge at Hager City Minnesota - many memories over the years at the site of the annual Glastron meets in August.

Yes, a lot of good memories from meets there!
I sure do miss sitting around the fire and watching the barges go by at night.

Yep, me too. Much more scenic & relaxing.
(I also remember them jacking our group rates up to whatever they felt like year over year...and the year they didn't clean the bathrooms at all, and how they wanted to force us to camp along the entrance road (that floods) that last year we stayed there. Not sure I've ever shared all the stuff they tried.)
But...those barges quietly cruising by in the night was awesome. We had a ton more community interest at that location too...Red Wing Newspaper, boating magazine interview, etc...much easier to promote & grow the group from there.

Dear people of the past.

Good Picture of Jerry!
I think about Jerry every once in a while. He was a pretty good guy.
The first couple of meets Amber and I attended he was pretty skeptical of us. But, by our 3rd meet and our trip to the cities over the winter to pickup the 140 from Joe and meeting everyone for supper he and I had become pretty good friends.
