Title: The Gathering
Post by: Parks Guy on Oct 29, 2019, 06:07 AM
Greetings ladies, gentlemen and everything in between

It is that time of year again.  A time of harvest, hunting and "The Gathering".  All are welcome, those who have attended in the past need little encouragement. An opportunity of fellowship with others who have frozen more than a few braincells. A chance to put a face to those usernames you have conversed with.  Please list what you are going to bring in your response so that we do not end up with ten bowls of potato salad.
I will bring a generator, but we could use a second one.  I will also bring macaroni salad.

When:  Sunday, December 15th, Noon
Where: Moraine State Park, McDannels Landing

See you there
Parks Guy

Hello gentlemen.  I have always wanted to try fishing that lake.  It just that it's a bit of a drive, from  Newport, plus it looks like pretty big water to figure out in a weekend !



To you guys usually have ice for the gathering ?  Sounds like fun  @)

There could be fishable ice on the middle creek section, it’s a big “could be” depending on Mother Nature.. my guess “no”

Hello Flyboyroy

One year we had some skim ice for The Gathering.  It is mostly a "meet & greet" and a chance to put a face to a username.  All are welcome.

According to the IRS agent from India, I have 23 warrants for my arrest in 12 states if I don’t pay my fine in Walmart gift cards.  Slider better up his game

What do you think about moving to the other pavilion at McDannels Landing?  It has a wall that should block some of the wind.  I just need to call the office and let them know.

Ps.  I will be there with macaroni salad.

Just to throw a hint out , if this pavilion has a fireplace as was mentioned , someone would be the HERO of the Gathering if they brought wood or charcoal whichever is used in the fireplace .  Just sayin.

It was great to see the few that showed up today ! If the wind hadn't been so cold , I'm sure we could have held out longer . Best of luck to you this season guys and hopefully we'll see each other out on the ice .
