Description of our "Dirty Santa" gift exchange!

We basically wrap gifts.... normally $10-$20 or something from your collection.

It can be serious it can be funny.

Nobody knows whats in them or who they are from. Those that participate put their name in a hat and grab a gift when your name is called.

The gifts can be stolen twice though before then end up with their final owner.

Example: Adam picked a gift and its a toyota gift card...... Johnny's name is drawn later and he instead of picking a wrapped gift steals adams gift..... then adam has to pick a new gift or steal from someone else.

After any gift has been stolen a second time it is locked in an stays with that owner.

Past funny gifts have included.... the karmapooptra book, the gift that every girl wants (chosen by Jerry for some reason), a pink poncho, twighlight poster

Serious gifts have been, toyota gift card, toyota trail team swag, cruiser parts, best buy gift cards.

This is totally optional and spouses and guests not in the club can participate also, all you need is to bring a gift.

Lesson from July '14 DR vacation, take your tropical trips in the winter, duh!!
 
I'll be there Thursday night if Kenny allows it.
 
First time attendee if it works out, is there a schedule day to day?

We keep it pretty loose. You're on your own Friday. Saturday is going to be a workday starting early, then a club dinner that night. Sunday morning is a club breakfast then everyone heads home.

More details will be put in the first post soon :D
 
Planning on it.
Two munchkins in tow.
Maybe a wife
 
The real question is, will the jalopy make it out?
This would be a good excuse for me to get my a** in gear on the Jalopy. The Meet and Great was what got me moving on it last time.

You can even tow the pig cooker if you'd like :lol:

I'm always game for an adventure
 
I'll be there Thursday night if Kenny allows it.

Actually, I'm hoping we can get several members to show up early. We do not have any firewood split so in order to have a fire, we need to split enough firewood for that weekend; and also the meet and greet weekend. We had to buy a load of wood for the military that is using the barn this weekend. I am taking off Friday and bringing saws and splitter so anyone that can come early and help would be greatly appreciated.

I can likely take thursday and friday off, so if I can get set up Thursday during the day then I can get a head start on splitting.

I'm taking a half day friday to make sure I can get the RV in before it fills up. You know you have free labor as long as I am there. ;)
