Looking forward to this event on Sat. Should be good ice conditions for us out there. I'll be drilling holes and making the rounds, so if you're there be sure to say hi.

Good luck everyone,

This is awesome. I wish you all much success. Unfortunately I will be at a B-Ball tourney all day or I would join in on the fun.

These people are the TRUE AMERICAN HEROS - Thanks to everyone who has and is serving.

Yes, I beleive portables are allowed, along with electronics. There will be 4 wheelers with trailers shuttling people back and forth.

This is a great event for a wonderful cause. Hope to see you all out there. Stop by the concession tent and say "hi". I will be the big guy frying fish for sandwiches.
