BoM May '11
Bit early maybe to be posting a HERF for the end of summer, but since it's going to be in Canada, I figured I'd give plenty of notice for anyone that may need travel documents (must have a passport to cross the border).
Date: Fri/Sat/Sun August 26-28th
Location: bdc30's place, Dutton Ontario Basic Map
From the west, we're about a 90min drive from the Detroit/Windsor border and about 1hr15min from the Port Huron/Point Edward Crossing. From the east, we're 30min west of London. We have a decent sized yard and can probably find space for 10-15 tents, along with some random couches and things in the house. Bottom line, we'll find a place for as many people as possible.
The plan at this point is flexible, but the idea is to "open up" around 4pm on Friday. I'd like to try and get a golf game together Saturday morning. There's a little 9 hole, par 35 track just down the road from my place - we could play 9 or 18 depending on level of interest.
The actual event will start Saturday around 1pm and run until we feel like stopping...lol We'll provide the burgers and sausages, some pop and munchies and have the bbq going for the afternoon. Alcohol is byob, but there's a beer/liquor store less than a 2min walk from my house if you'd rather just buy here. Everyone's welcome to stay Saturday night and leave whenever you feel like on Sunday.
Anyway, that's about as far as I've gotten to now -- plans obviously subject to improve as we get closer. If you have any questions or suggestions, post em up and let's make this THE way to wrap up the summer.
Cheers
