Quoted from Lesman01 post last year -
1. Should we make it a family thing or a guy thing? I vote family thing
2. Should we camp or make it one day" I vote for Fri Sat camp. We can reserve several spots together and/or people could just come for the day. We can have a structured "social" group BBQ one of the nights to give everyone a rally point to be there. say 5-7PM Saturday night. Name tags, epic chochkees(still wear my hat Breakaway!), epic awards, etc...(I know pretty cheesy, but hey...)
3. Where should we meet? I vote Hartwell..seems most "central"
4. What weekend? the sooner the better(cooler) or later toward the Fall.
He's got some good points and I wanted to throw them all back out there and add my own opinion - Lets make it a weekend thing. Everyone coming from out of town could drive in Fri night, do the roundup on a saturday/sunday morning. Cookout on Saturday Night. I know most the Atlanta guys can just "wing" this but everyone coming from out of town has to devote some time and effort into the trip. Not to Mention towing a boat half way across 2 states with gas prices so, for "us" its officially a little more than a get together but more of a mini Vacation. I like the idea of a family thing, simply because of the above reasons. (which means we have to factor in school dates) I'm 28 and haven't started a family yet but my old man might want to tag along and a friend or two.
As far as lakes - Which one is the easiest to get to for everyone? Best camping/cabins access to bathrooms/showers?
