Let's have a sack party for the owner. I'll bring the feedsack, you guys bring the ball bats!

That does really suck that you can't be there. I'll try and sink the Mog again just for you...

Attendance is not looking too hot right now. 5 YES's, and I'm guessing one of those was you WT, along with 4 MAYBE's. Crap guys, come on!! Let's show up and support the Rally!!
 
I haven't spoken up yet because I'm not 100% sure I can make it, but I am trying to assemble a mini-convoy from the cincinnati area. We are about 60 miles from Haspin. . . . being so close, it would be a shame to miss it :)

Maybes:
1. Myself - 5 ton cargo ( . . . or maybe new deuce I haven't bought yet :wink: )
2. Todd Haley - riding shotgun with me. (his very, very nice, perfectly restored GPW project is still under construction)
3. GimpyRobb - M725
4. Not ss member yet - M35
5. Not ss member yet - M37

PHIZLAN, we'd be glad to have you. It is the 14-16th of July. We had a great time last year. The pouring rain provided for some muddy entertainment and some good stucks.

JYWC, glad to hear about your convoy to Haspin. I am about 11.5 hours away this year, but I wouldn't miss it for anything. I am going to leave Thursday evening, stay over in Charleston, WV with my folks, pick up Jess on the way out of town Fri. mornin, and hopefully get to Haspin around noon to allow for some wheeling time Friday afternoon after we set up camp.

I am still working on the t-shirts. I am going to use a local place so hopefully the quality will be better and the price about the same as last year.

So when is everyone planning on getting there? I am hoping to get there around noon this time so we can get camp set up and go wheeling for a while until it gets dark.

I am leaving Franklin Thursday night with my brother and will stay the night in Charleston, WV. We will head for Haspin in the wee hours of the morning friday. Anyone have a good idea for the campsite? Are we still thinking around that pond? Or maybe out a little further in the sticks?

WT, any luck on getting out of work?

If there aren't any objections, I am going to post a general invite on the Mil-Veh list too. It might be a good opportunity to drum up some new members if we can get them to come to the Rally and corrupt them :)

If you get there thursday afternoon I think you will be the first. I haven't talked with anyone else who will be there that early. That should give you first pick of the prime campsites Dennis since I think most of the big groups got there Friday last year, right?

I posted the Rally on the Mil-Veh Mailing List and heard from a group of guys with Pinzgauers. We'll probably have 3 or 4 of them there. This is going to be a lot of fun!
