We will do breakfast Saturday morning for everyone but other then that if you all want to pitch in some burgers and hot dogs for lunch and dinner, or some boneless chicken and torta's for dinned and chips, we are willing to share the mkt with the hole group. as is its going to cost us a about a $1000 for our crew for just the weekend between food fuel, and getting and LP. sorry we can't feed the hole group.

I wasn't at all meaning that you should feed anybody out of the goodness of your heart!! No Way!
It is figured that the Meal Plan would be "Pay-As-You-Go". EVERYBODY should expect that.
But then I hadn't given it all much thought. I guess it's complicated setting up a pay station/ cash register/ making change, etc. Yeah, I can see that's a nightmare all by itself.

Like i said, we will cover breakfast, but a pitch in usaully works the best when we take it camping with the jeeper crew. We do have an mkt ice chest and it works really well keeps the food cold for three days with out adding any ice to it in the summer heat, so keeping food safely cold isn't a problem.

There's some "reusable ice" product available now that is self-contained (i.e., no leaks), and works as a substitute for dry ice (freezes at 5 degrees F).
Cabela's is one place to get it. If you don't know about it, you might want to check it out.
You'll find some detail here on this catalog page (attached).

Ooops. I thought it was Cabela's, but I ran across it from an operation called Forestry Suppliers (so, www.forestry-suppliers.com, and Search "Reusable Ice").

I have a bother that works at gsf and we just use his discount to buy ice, for a 150 pounds of ice it cost us ten dollars. Plus we can get all our other food supplies there for about 50 bucks and it feads our hole crew for a weekend plus. The mkt is only stock on the out side. Lp weber grill on the inside microwave, coffee maker, 7 quart drinking coolers. All kinds of good stuff. Lights 120acv and 24dcv inside. Even have a sink and a water cooler for everyone to wash there hands with for chow.

Hey 212sparky, is anyone doing T-shirts? I have a custumer that owns a T-shirt printing shop that can make shirts for $15 to $20 each. Small, med, large, are all $15 and x-large threw xxx-large are $20 each. We usually do safety green with black lettering.

No body is doing shirts as of now that I know of. Feel free to to come up with a design. As a side note, if Steel Soldiers is used we have to get it cleared with Chris the site owner.

I wouldn't mind having a SS bumper sticker (or magnetic square or something) to put on my vehicles. Do any of you all know if there's an SS vendor selling anything like that?

Hi everyone. I'm a newby here and don't currently have any green iron. That will change if all goes as planned.
I'd like to make this get together if I can get the time off.
Haspin Acres is currently for sale so it's future is unknown. Need to enjoy it while we can.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers, HD. Glad you're on-board.
I'm not a part of your area, but I just like knowing what's "going on" (kind of nosey, I guess
)Do you know the history of Haspin Acres, like who is the owner and why it's for sale?

I can say this much, I have been going there since the mid 70's.
