OS,

I hope to attend.  It will likely be just me as my wife is travelling on business.

Jimbo   Cool

I'd love to attend but it's a long trip from Chicago, I just spent weekend (and too much money)  at Copia, and it's council jamboree weekend for the scout troop I work with.  Have fun!

All of the speakers are posted. IMO, this lineup beats Copia hands down. I have several on my list that I plan to see, including Claire Que from WCPP. If you are anywhere in the area, you should plan to check it out...

If you come, plan to come for dinner afterwards.

As of now, we have the following planning to attend. Others are welcome to join us, but please post here or PM me so that the restaurant can be prepared. We could probably add some at the last minute if there is a need.

We have:

old salt
Snowdog
Claire Que (WCPP)
Jimbo
Prouboy
marlin 55388 + 1 guest
MNAdventurer
Rocky + 1 guest
nctry Ben + 1 guest

Total: 11-12. It would help if those bringing guests could confirm with me that they are still planning to attend.

We can gather at the Market BBQ at 6:30pm, and will order at 7:00pm. We can linger after dinner to visit, talk trips, etc.

It looks to be a fun day with many speakers, exhibits, etc. If you have QJ apparel, plan to wear it, so we can find each other. I will wear my QJ t-shirt & 'Quetico' cap.  Cool

The confirmed total is now 12. I told them 12-15, so even if you won't know until the last minute, we can work you in. If you decide this week, please let me know. The reservation is under "Quietjourney". Cool

maybe the neighborhood is scaring people away, not an easy area to get to or find a place to park, expensive if you do

Certainly not the "worst" neighborhood. There is parking behind the place as noted in the link. If you are concerned about finding the rendezvous we can meet at the canoe event and you and yours could follow us over, pm me if you would like. My son will be attending, so the seasoning of much needed youth will be there consuming rootbeer and gobbling down BBQ! See you all Saturday!

As for the parking concern, if you visit the website, you will see several options. Bring your ticket into the store, get it validated, and 4 hrs are free. Admission is also free. So, it can't be any more expensive than Copia, where you pay to shop.

Will it be an annual event? The event is an annual thing. We will discuss the dinner Sat night, gauge the interest level, & decide. We'll post something here to let you know. It's not too late for this year...
