Where we're going

We are going to the camping spot that some of us stayed at on September long, last year. Dustin's been there a few times too and it is marked on his map [here]

Because the camping site is on a peninsula, we'll need to park our cars and canoe the rest of the way. That distance is about 45min, says last year's campers.

Who's going

So far, these people are confirmed:

1. Brendan
2. Kristyn
3. Allison
4. Jere
5. Jake
6. Alex
7. Jennesa
8. Mark Peters

These people have shown interest:

• Matt Benedet - He may be writing a test that would keep him from camping. We have yet to see.

Canoes (and other miscellaneous gear)

These are our available canoes:

1. Alex's canoe
2.  ???

Allison: I think we're going to have to rent them at Rushing River again. This may pose a problem if it closes early

Rushing River Store
PH: 807-548-8875

Kristyn: My parents bought a big house with many closets, lofts, and storage spaces, knowing their kids would frequently return home to freeload. If I can't find my three-man tent in all these storage options, is anyone else bringing a large enough one to let me cuddle with them?

Alex: We have an extra tent at our house, so if you want it, its yours. unless you want somebody to cuddle with, then there is always room in my tent ;)

Schedule

Outgoing

We want to leave on Friday.

Allison: I could meet you guys at the PetroCanada that's just past the perimeter. I could be there by about 5pm. I am available to pack up my car after 9:45pm on Thursday.

Kristyn: I can be in Winnipeg any time on friday. if others have that day off, I can load up during the day with them. if necessary I can even be in Winnipeg very late thursday evening (try 10:30 or 11:00).

Alex: i want to be out by 5, mainly because of daylight, if we leave any later, i think we maybe paddling/ setting up in the dark and i really don't want to do that. get time off if you have to, even hitting that road in the dark could be a problem

Brendan: I can leave any time on Friday. I would like to leave as early as noon, if possible.

Please write how early you can leave.

1. Brendan - entire day off
2. Kristyn - entire day off. time is no object.
3. Allison - 5:00 (at Petro Canada) - this means that the rest of you will have to leave earlier than 5
4. Jere - 5:00
5. Jake - 5:00
6. Alex - 5:00
7. Jennesa - ?
8. Mark Peters - ?

Allison: Are we camping at the spot that requires an hour-long (ish... I don't remember) canoe trip? That might pose a small problem, given the amount of daylight. I don't know if we'd find the place if we had to paddle across the lake in the dark. Also, now that there are potentially 9 of us, I'm not sure there'll be room for all the tents at that smaller camping spot. There were really only two good flat locations for tents. I totally call the one Jake and I had last time!

Brendan: Now I know where we're going [Wiki updated]

When do we want to leave? Monday afternoon? Monday at noon? Monday morning?

I don't need to be at work again until sometime on wednesday. I wonder if you guys believe me when I tell you I'm gainfully employed. - Kristyn

Allison: I don't care when we leave. I need to work on Tuesday, so as long as we're back before then, I'm good.
