Georgia Cruisers 4wd Club Members:

MAKE PLANS NOW - MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
2009 Annual Event - Saturday, October 10, 2009 -- Dawsonville Property - Spring Lake

Please make plans now to attend the Georgia Cruisers Annual Event at "SPRINGLAKE", the Dawsonville Private Property our club is privileged to use. We will have multiple activities - including swimming, trail rides (on site), horseshoes, kids activities & contests, mountain biking, camping, Outlet Mall shopping for spouses, etc.

The BOD has decided to again subsidize most of the cost of the event, and to continue to offer a nice raffle. Since most of the raffle items are purchased at club expense, the BOD has decided to again ask the membership for a registration fee of $10.00 per member. The registration fee includes all activities and enables the club to continue to make a contribution for the use of the property. The club will provide a hamburgers, hotdogs, various sides, and drinks, etc. The Registration Fee can be paid at the event, or in advance, if you prefer.

The Annual Event is open to current PAID club members and immediate family at club expense. We only ask that you sign up and confirm the # of adults and children that will attend from/with your family, so that we can properly order an adequate supply of food. THE ONLY CHARGE WILL BE THE $10.00 REGISTRATION FEE. Single members are entitled to bring a guest / date of your choice, along with other immediate family members / children. Any other non-club invitees should be approved by the BOD, and any non-member guests who plan to bring a truck to ride the trails will be charged a fee of $30.00.

Everyone – In the years past we all enjoyed sharing Snacks, Hors D'oeuvres, and Desserts which were provided by all you great cooks in the club. So, we are asking that each of you help out again this year. Please bring a dessert or some type of snack / hors d'oeuvre which you can share.

We plan to have another nice Raffle this year. Hopefully, very similar to what we did last year. The BOD has authorized spending up to $750.00 for raffle prizes. In addition, we will have a few donated prizes. Each current paid member is eligible for the Grand Prize and will be issued (1) Grand Prize Ticket. We will also have many other nice prizes in multiple categories. Raffle tickets will be sold on-site for $1.00 each. Any person attending is eligible to win any prize except the Grand Prize. YOU MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN ANY PRIZE!!

Ted,

I don't know if you remember me ( Nick). I came to the June meeting and drove the lifted Silver 100 Series. I paid the "application" fee but only could make it to 1 meeting. This will be my 2nd event. So would I be considered a member?

Can bring a few chairs/drinks for everyone. As for now count me in, I won't be able to make it to the OCT 6th meeting as school and everything but expect to see me at the event the 10th

Thanks.
Nick.

I'll be in town that weekend (99% sure) and would like to come to the event.

I think this event should be the following weekend, cause I got plans for the weekend of the 10th.

Josh, Don't forget the remaining pipe section for the chapter awning still at my shop, if you were going to erect it this weekend. It is a curved section so you could not easily replicate it in a pinch.

[schmitty]

We won't need it for this ride there is a pavilion at Ralph's. I will be coming by pretty soon to pick it up though.

[huston53]

any contingency plan for a rain out?

[schmitty]

Wheel in the rain

[pillguy]

50% chance of T-storms. I am still questionable due to wedding nearby. I said to wife.... we can wheel in the morning and go to wedding in evening.
WHat if you get stuck?
I said never, but got the look of death.... and something about spending time with her.....

Josh, what time are you planning on getting there on Friday afternoon? Dumb question, but I guess you guys will wheel some on Friday afternoon/early evening?

The reason I am asking is Friday may be my only day to be there.

Sid

[schmitty]

What time would you like to ride? I can be there anytime because I have Friday off of work.
