Yes to an informal Saturday midday gathering at the Coliseum if that is where it will be. Also a yes to the Sat. night dinner.

I will be up all day Sat. and would be at the supper if it happens. If it is set I would try to contact some of those  that decided to attend the QJ dinner at the last minute last year.

Hey OS,
Having missed last years KayakCopia due to illness, I will be there this year.  Sat. lunch at the Coliseum, and possibly a dinner Sat. night will be in my plans.
Hmm.  Perhaps I can stay through a presentation Sunday to heckle, er, ask questions about setting up a canoe....

I'm sure that many are wondering about a Saturday dinner. I PMed Kingfisher to express appreciation for all of his work on past dinners and inquired if something was in the works. He responded that he no longer had time to devote to this, due to a change at work. He expressed support for us to continue the dinner tradition.

MuleLars and I are working on a plan for Saturday dinner, as well as a Friday evening meal. If you have any suggestions, please PM MuleLars or me or post here. We will post when we have plans. Thanks for your patience. Cool

I went to the web site for Canoeacopia to check the dates.  Members on this site have often said it should be called Kayakacopia because of the emphasis on kayaks.  All the pictures of the boats are of kayaks and not a single canoe to be seen.  I am only talking about the home page.  No doubt if you go into their site, they probably have a photo of a canoe here and there.  It is just interesting how things change over time.  Westwood

I'll be posting separate threads for the Friday dinner and the Saturday dinner.

For Saturday night, I'll be checking with the folks at Gray's but I'll look into some other potential venues as well. I just want to make sure we get a good deal. I know Kingfisher worked very very hard on securing Grey's for us the last few years, but it was sounding like we might not be able to make the sweetheart deal he was able to get before.

Stay tuned. And many many thanks to Kingfisher for all of his past effort on the Saturday dinner!!

Hard to believe but it looks like I will miss Canoecopia this year. I may choose to attend a two day class for doing prescribed prairie burns instead. Still pondering this momentous decision.
