How about a pot luck? Everyone could bring a dish to pass or snacks or beverages.

Below is a list of who's bringing what, I'll add to it as everyone let's us know what they're gonna bring...making it easier to see who's bringing what....


Carol/Dan- Whiskey weiners & brat appetizers
Chad- something good
ken- nesco full of pulled pork
Jake-pot of jambalaya and homemade venison sausage
Singing Bridge- slow cooker with meatballs
Dawn- cheese potatoes, or potatoe salad, or pasta salad!
Big Daddy- a lasagna dish

Dan are there reasonable accomadations nearby? Escanaba probably the closest? Also were most of the boars shot in the 150 or smaller range. Sorry about the all the questions!!

Jeff reserved a cabin for us that will sleep up to 16 people... ( no charge for the cabin ) I "think" its a farm house... Dawn, I would bring extra bedding, just to be safe, but you probably won't need it.
Also were most of the boars shot in the 150 or smaller range.

Yes, 80 to 90% of the boars were either sows or the smaller ones. If your not sure whats what, or your on a budget, just stick with the guide, or hang with someone who has been up there before. If you just wait a while and ask some questions while checking out some of the boars you should be fine... Its a blast man, and your more than welcome!

I think everyone will have a video camera following them around so Dan and i thought maybe it would be nice to offer everyone a DVD of this years pigfest. If you are interested we will discuss it furthur when we get to camp, probably will ask for a small fee for each disc to cover editing and material costs. 8-) Looking forward to seeing everyone again this year and meeting the newcomers!!!!!!!!
