Rubithon 2009

[OGBeno]

Doesn't that extra week allow for things to dry out as well?

Dude...yer not going next year, remember?

Just because I have enjoyed enough of that trail does not mean that I will not make observations.

 

[woooody]

it has been our goal to avoid Fathers Day... but Fathers day falls on the 3rd Sunday and will impact us for the next 2 (or 3) years, and if we are to move off fathers day we need to move now.

While you folks might not feel it, I do. I get myriads of calls from other Trail users who take great exception to our event happening on Fathers day.

However, I value the opinion of my event staff and will ponder this decision. We could push out one week... I think.

I think you should go back and look at some of the previous dates. If I remember correctly, for the last 10 years, Rubithon been on the 3rd weekend of June. There was one year (2004) where it was on the 2nd weekend, and it got postponed to August because it was too wet.

I think conflicts with school will have a greater impact to attendance than conflicts with Father's Day.

OK, enough whining about dates... it worked.

June 15 to 20th.

Didn't really see any whining, mostly valid arguments. Now that I think about it, may have caused a conflict at our house with graduations. Fathers Day should be what we want to do I believe. Mom's have there own day
Thanks for being flexible Tony.

The points Andy and Ross brought up are very valid. 3rd weekend it is.

Thanks Tony.

I'm willing to drink a beer in your honor on Saturday night for Father's Day.


Or, you could have all the fathers stand up at the raffle, or something.

Are we going to keep the format all on Friday next year? I liked that.

 

[TRT2]

not sure Andy... we'll (TLCA event staff) need to discuss. I fully realize this worked very well for you and many others with a long drive, or other needs. Additionally, it got us out faster on that weekend. However, it did have other repercussions such as pulling everything off on Friday night (which I felt worked OK).

June 15 to 20, 2010.

June 15 to 20, 2010.

Perfect! Just solidified my vacation for this week....another epic Rubithon is shaping up in my head....

 

[woooody]

I'd like to see us do breakfast again... which means a Saturday bonfire.

I'd like to see us do breakfast again... which means a Saturday bonfire.

And I would like to eat the breakfast again.

Bonfirs are good.

2X it was great being able to have the Raffle on Friday and have Saturday to make the 450mile drive back south.
