Good work to those involved with this planning. Right now I am saying probably not but if things get better, perhaps. Thank you,
Chris Heile

I'm in for the 18th, let's try and get this locked in so everyone can change reservations.

We're in. No preference in which weekend...just as long as we have enough time to schedule it.

Mike, Laurie, Wyatt (2 yrs), and Hemi (the dog).

Is anyone interested in the first week of August. The lakes start to settle down from the summer vacationers. This is my first choice as it will allow for my brother with another Amskier to come as well. So first pick is first week of August, 2nd pick is July. June is out for me.

If first week of August = 2 boats + 4 adults + 5 kids.

July = 1 boat + 4 kids.

I'm in for June 17, 18 & 19 (Fri, Sat & Sun) three nights... Ron, the weekend of June 11/12 is booked SOLID...

I guess I'm the unofficial reunion planner, along with one or two others... Once we figure out the dates (should be by this Sunday), I'll contact the Resort to see if they have a party room or other accomodations we can rent for an evening with some light refreshments & BYOB, etc. Other than that, this isnt going to be anything fancy since its our first outing, but it should be a blast with a bunch of AM Skiers on the lake, great boating & skiing, comraderie, checking out eachothers boats, hopefully we can con Ron & Dan to answer tech questions (hint, hint) and we'll all get to meet eachother in the flesh... WARNING!! I aint pretty

Even with just a handful of boats, this is probably the largest gathering of AM Skier boats in a very very long time - should be interesting for all of us and the other boaters on the lake

Thanks to all who have responded so far! I think we have SIX to date. Keep writing in, include the weekend of choice, and I'll try to keep count...

In, probly 2 possibly 4 people. Date: who cares as long as you get it to me fast enough I can get approval from work.

Joel · « **Reply #10 on:** March 04, 2011, 12:19:40 PM »

Were up to EIGHT confirmed attendees plus spouses, kids, guests, etc... Wooooo Hooooo!!!! The weekend of June 17th - 19th looks like the overall favorite by a wide margin. I'm gonna go ahead and make the call to the resort that we'll be there on that weekend.

If you plan on attending June 17th - 19th (or some combination) PLEASE REPLY to this sticky so I can continue to keep track of who's coming & get an overall head count. EVERYBODY go ahead and make your reservations directly with Buchanans Resort! They are first come / first served.

See the link for Buchanan's Resort @ http://www.parislanding.com/buchanan/index.htm

I love it when a plan comes together!!!!

This place is booking up FAST as it is a company & corporate favorite!!!! TODAY, the owner of Sonic Restaurants booked up all the waterfront suites...

Currently they have the following accomodations:

Three - 2 bedroom suites ($170), One - 3 bedroom suite ($195), One - 4 bedroom lodge ($160 + additional $$ per persons), One standard cottage ($89) & all motel rooms ($69)...

The three bedroom suite & the lodge are perfect for sharing (if you know each other well enough) & split the costs

Make your reservations ASAP!!!

Are there camp sites available too? That may be an option for some people who like to camp.
