The group leads are in charge of getting contact numbers of the people in there group. You are to get a hard number of who will be in your group. Follow the time schedule we have posted, if a person isnt there ready to leave and they have not contacted the group lead then the group will leave with out. We do this so we can all arrive at the camp site together.

Also, be ready for fun. Have a working CB if possible (group leads pick the channel). See you soon. If I placed anyone in the wrong group let me know and I'll edit the post.

That works for me, I will get pm sent to my group today. If anyone from the flint or Detroit area is coming let me know I am meeting a few people in lapeer before heading to saginaw.

Heck yea it's all coming together again those times are very stringent we followed them last year and the GR group only waited like 15 minutes till the Saginaw group showed up the timing was perfect I couldn't be more proud of my time management and navigational skills lol

Also James if you don't have me or franks number mine is 6165506443

I will also be bringing another friend and her grand Cherokee so we should have a pretty good convoy this year

Hey guys I am just wondering if we need to make reservations for the campsite we are staying at. I am not going to be able to make the convoy like I hoped but there is no doubt I will be there. And what campsite are we staying at because I plan to stay after the blessing and make this sort of a mini vacation.

Thanks guys!

Hey 1998-Red-XJ, were staying at the campsite at twisted trails. The site is a first come first serve but we can save you a spot. Just let us know what your using (tent, camper, etc...). Also jot down realdeal's and my phone numbers and try to get one of us your number, that way we can inform you of any changes.

Haha yeah, I forgot I had to announce we were going the wrong way from the detour.... through 20 miles of hills. (If that road is flooded out again... we should attempt a crossing this year.)

hey wild id be more then happy to take the group lead spot but im not 100% sure about going with trying to get a house, so if you could designate anothr member that would be awsome, only reason being is if i cant go i dont want the group to be completely f'd and have no clue as to who is going and meeting there and the contact #'s for everyone. id be more the willing to help keep things straight if i do go with the newaygo group but like i said id hate to have it organized then have to dump it on someone if i cant make it. thanks in advance
