Mackinac Island Event April 26

Posted: Fri Mar 09, 2012 12:05 pm

Thinking of Going to 6th Annual Spring Fling on Mackinac Island GC3BM87. Looking to see if anyone from Wisconsin wants to go along to split some costs.
Thinking of heading up there on Thursday Afternoon Apr 26, Heading to the Island on Friday Morning and staying for the weekend. Coming home Sunday. There are currently 116 caches on the island.

We'd love to do that event, but it's always held the same weekend as my storytelling conference. We cached the island a couple years ago and had a blast, and a good half of those caches were archived and replaced with new, so there'd be lots for us to do. Hope you can find someone, because it really is a fun place to cache.

Sorry, Barry. I won't be going after all. No time, interest, or money.

zeeman_clan from Valley are planning on going for the 2nd year in a row. Last year they walked it all, never riding. Yes, their legs fell off.

Letting you know that indeed, Brian and I plan on going to the event on the Island!! I absolutely adore caching there before the busy season is upon them! I am not quite sure when exactly we will be leaving, as Brian is now on Second Shift. But, he is taking Friday off, so I believe we will be leaving early Friday morning. That may be too late for you.

If you wanna email us, zeeman82110@gmail.com is Brians email.

Just tossing it out that if there is anyone besides us and sweetlife on the way to Mackinac Island this year for the Spring Fling, just drop us a line, and we would be happy to get together on the island. We've got a fairly good grasp of the island and it's trails if anyone would like to team up.

*If* my tax refund comes in time, I *may* go.

On that same weekend though I was invited to a muggle friend's birthday party in Oshkosh.

But in all likelihood, the odds are I won't be going to either event if I don't get my refund then.

I might make that a last minute decision.........

I might still go there in mid-week in May. School still in session, not as many people and it should be warmer.

I'll look at my work schedule and post back.

Even if there is no event, it might still be fun to do.

Just not next weekend if the weather continues to be cool as it has been lately.
