Hello everyone!!! The Meet and Greet is upon us!!

Here are the rules:

- 5 tickets per person max
- $5 per ticket - cash only, please
- Tickets sold only at the event (Friday and Saturday)
- Need not be present at the drawing to win but it's up to the winner to arrange shipping (MUDship or otherwise)
- Drawing held Saturday evening
- You must be a current ONSC member in good standing by the time of the drawing to claim the prize. We will be checking. Yes, that means you don't have to be a member to buy tickets but you can't win unless you are a member - you'd just be giving us money.

How awesome is that? Please make sure you are current on our membership rolls. I'm attaching the link to do that and the link to purchase/renew your membership. Don't forget that you students have the option of a student membership.

Saturday Afternoon Hi-Lift Jack Class @ 3:30pm @ the barn!

This year we're going to have a Hi-Lift Jack class on Saturday at roughly 3:30pm (or whenever people are back from the URE workday)!!! A Hi-Lift (or farm jack) is a valuable and versatile piece of recovery equipment that most of us have in or on our vehicles. Even if you don't have one you will eventually cross paths with one being used. This class will teach you how to SAFELY operate this useful but dangerous tool. Izzy (@Izzyandsue) will be our instructor. There is no sign up necessary for this class - just be at the barn at 3:30pm ready to learn.

Location of the barn:

The barn is near Troy and Albemarle just east of Lake Tillery
There is no physical address to give for GPS but the directions are very simple and we have yet to get someone lost :)

Google maps location:

Going to be there with Laurel and Abbie. Trying to get them there the whole time this time, we'll see.

When the food sign-ups go live, you can count us in for bringing a dessert and some veggies.

I can't remember if we had stuff to cover the food last year or not. I remember there being a lot of food open to the air for a long time. If that was the case, I can bring some plastic covers or containers to put food in.
 
I did not read the entire OP, I was kinda messin with John V.
I do love the new mug :) I make my fair share of grammatical errors
 
Directions to the Monks bar are as follows

Monks bar will be open and ready. :)

You know we're in. Will be there Friday.

@GLTHFJ60 @alk747triodad

How's the firewood status? Do we need to cut some as well?

We are good on firewood but....I will never turn down firewood help. Splitter is still in back barn and I want to cut me a small load for my back yard pit. If it rains, the Monks bar is always open. :beer:
 
Already put in for day off , will be there Friday.
 
My one school conflict, MBA Residency, is that weekend Thursday-Saturday. So the earliest I could be there is 7pm on Saturday, so the Keefer's are probably out...
 
I'm in. Can't wait.
 
We are there as long as baseball gods approve. Coaching two teams this spring and have yet to receive the schedules. Fingers crossed.
 
Raffle prize will be a GoPro Hero 5 BLACK!! Runner-up prize will be a Trasharoo!

Main course will be a PIG!!
