OK...

We've got our date:

Sunday September 16, 2007

Place:

Holland, MI - PM me for the exact location

Looks like there is plenty of places to sit, and look around and there is a tunnel through the dune. They have two covered picinic areas both with grills and electricity. I would assume it not to be too hard to get one on a sunday this late in the year since school will be back in session though I am not sure.

Time:

How about 2 pm, so that the people who are travelling further have plenty of time without having to leave at the crack of dawn!!!
Also gives plenty of time to travel back and not get real dark.


What to bring:

Yourself, a dish to pass (or two or three, whatever!) Your own beverages, Your own place settings (napkins, plates, silverwear, glasses), Sunscreen (don't want anyone to burn!), Towels if you want to swim or what not!

I for sure will be bringing a few dishes to pass as well as some extra water or soda, probably a whole pack of paper plates and silverwear and napkins, I will also bring a garbage bag though it looked like they had garbages there. I am a prepared little monkey when it comes to things like that. I always bring extra!

Can anyone think of anything else we might need?


Alright I am going to get the PM's out!

Jill

Well, I'll definatly be there and perhaps with a husband in tow but I suspect he'll pass to watch Nascar... and I don't think my cousin will be able to make it either. I'll probably bring a dessert and a salad to pass. I'm happy to carpool anyone whos near or between South Bend and Holland as long as it's not to far out of the way just send me a PM. Looks like our group will be small but I'm super excited!

That would be fantastic... I hate driving long distances alone.

We don't have a mover or anywhere to move to yet! Once I can get that (hopefully all next week) I can let everyone know for sure if I'm going.
I hope everything works out for you... even if you can't make it.

I'm still very willing to pick people up who are close to South Bend, IN or between here and South Haven/Holland... but I think Linda said she probably won't be able to make it.

Well, I'm pretty good with directions so if we ride together I'd be happy to help you navigate. I do think a number exchange would be a good idea though.

The last I heard from her was that she could NOT make it. Looks like it'll be a small group. I'm sending you a PM now.

I'll be PM'ing you soon to figure out where to meet, then I can drive the rest of the way if you want.
