MoCool fever!

by JuliaB » Sun Aug 07, 2011 10:33 am

This is when the excitement is almost palpable! The theme is set, cool t-shirts designed, registrations pouring in, the Friday welcome for out-of -towners announced, and Chef Kerr is poised to create magic in the kitchen for the Saturday dinner. Are you ready???

Who's coming?

Hey Julia, What's with the Friday Welcome for out-of-towners? Luci and I were planning on grilling out at the cabins on Fri. nite and may do that anyhow as to avoid the transport costs and better mingle with the stay-on-site crowd (the Noland bros., Howie, OW, Mike etc.). Is the Friday Welcome at the lodge or is Joel or Dave inviting the out-of-towners to one of their houses?

Hi Jim,

The Friday night party is at Joel's place. The Noland brothers and JuliaB will be there. We usually take a taxi over and back, for obvious reasons. We usually book one ahead of time. It is expensive, about $40-$50 per person for the round trip, but it is well worth it. The parties at Joel's place always have some awesome wines and food. Joel usually does the meat and then locals bring potluck. If you can swing it, definitely come.

Hi Jim!

No taxi has been procurred yet, but usually the largest we can get is a van. As far as I know, the Brothers and I, plus Mike & Cindy Hughes and Howie will fill one. I suggest others interested in going by taxi start chiming in to fill another. If I find one with good rates and accommodating drivers, I'll pass that info. along. I do not know who is staying in the cabins and who at a hotel..always a factor.

5 Days!
