Field of Dreams Campout June 2 & 3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you build it they will come?
Spring is in the air and for many that means baseball. It?s also a chance for everyone to experience the excellent riding we have here in SW Wisconsin and NE Iowa. Therefore we are organizing a campout for the first weekend in June with the set from the movie ?Field of Dreams? as the theme. Those interested can ride to the ball field near Dyersville IA on Saturday morning and throw a ball around or maybe even play a game. There doesn?t seem to be any entry fee but I?m sure they ?encourage? purchase of their t-shirts and souvenirs. The afternoon could be spent on a ride to one of the local Cheese factories in Grant County WI. Other than riding to Dyersville there are no organized rides planned. However, this is a great area for just taking random turns and getting lost (that is if you turn off some of that electronic equipment).
The nearest campground with group camping is Nelson Dewey State Park just outside of Cassville WI. We?ve reserved one of the group camp sites there for Friday, June 2nd and Saturday June 3rd. You can stay one night, both nights or no nights and just hang out. If my figures are correct the fee should be no more than $10 for both nights. It?s a state park so there will probably be a parking fee.
Two unorganized ST-O members (David Kruger and Tom Bognar) are "organizing" this event. So expect the unexpected. Send any favorable messages to David Kruger (Jackpine), insults and criticisms to Tom Bognar (Tom Bognar).
Check the ST OWNERS web site under events for more links.
Also David has it backwards he gets the insults & I get favorable messages...:D
