    I expect to arrive before noon on Thurs. I will not be staying at Ebersole. As usual, I'll bring Pepperjacks & maybe Peppadews.

    I plan on showing up Friday...I will sleep in my truck, unless Tim/Julie or Walt/Robin want me to sleep between them. Don't want my drunk azz waking folks up in the center. I do reserve the right to use the shower... lol

    Can't wait my friends!

    We can easily set you up here at my place. 5 minutes between the two locations.

    Unfortunately I will not be able to attend, last minute scheduling conflict. Have a good time everyone.

    amateur cutter my hope is to make it out Wednesday sometime afternoon/evening. Do you need a splitter at the center? Did Ben happen to mention anything in particular he’d like me to address?

    Was planning to pull my little utility trailer camper and just park at the center. Would appreciate a 120 volt plug in though for my minimal power needs. I have a very long extension cord so pretty easy for me to plug into any external outlet they may have.


    Well that does suck indeed.

    Sorry guys, it sucks for me as well… The GTG’s are just the coolest way to enjoy life for me. Hopefully other events this year will line up with my new work schedule.

    Hey brother, was gonna text you tomorrow. Ben has a nice fairly easy list. Lot of pruning and pole saw stuff. Your splitter would be perfect at the center. Camping plug in should be no problem. Probably be able to put on black top. Let me know on timing and we'll get you setup.

    Hey Adam, I'm expecting to be there Thurs. before noon. Should I go to Ebersole or your place? I will have some refrigeratables (Pepperjacks, etc.) with me. Also, is most of the cutting at Ebersole going to be small stuff that could be easily handled by the 35cc saws, or will there be a significant amount requiring 50cc or more sized saws?

    I'll be there Thursday morning as well. I plan on taking my cold food to the center before going anywhere else. I was planning on only bringing my 2511P for helping at the center if there is small stuff.

    For Thursday, we can meet at my place first. Plenty of refrigerator space here. We'll go to the center and get bunks etc after the early arrivals are here. Anyone can choose saw size as they wish. Bigger saws here, small stuff at the center.
