Here is an update:
the Kooty Kraze is dying quickly here in the Midwest. MI has opened up restaurants ( 25%) and Ironically limited outdoor gatherings ( eye roll here )
So after a bit of shuffling here is the unofficial official itinerary. We have put together a great diverse schedule of events that will make for a great Vintage Clowder Experience.
Thursday: NEW NEW New new.......
We head off to a wonderful forest experience using unmaintained unplowed Fire breaks, Forest access and logging trails and roads to an abondoned ski jump area. Daytime cruise takes us to a WI, based bar, tavern, Pub and grub type venue with an 80 ACRE parcel of private land to goof around on if your not sick of your cat when you get there.
Lunch inside or fire pit outside for the distanced crowd...... then its back to the trailers. dinner on your own. ( many venues in WI are open and full service, MI Venues will be 25% and carry out, Please support the small business owners )
Friday: SAME SAME Same same........
The Traditional Lake superior cruise is plan A. Boots on the Ground are patrolling the route, Storm damage, snow conditions and a few local variables are being monitored in this region and the final call will be made with respect to the above. The Friday Trail ride will culminate in the Classically and extremely popular ski hill tour Scheduled for 4:30 PM at the Big Powder horn complex. Again Dinner on your own. ( many venues in WI are open and full service, MI Venues will be 25% and carry out, Please support the small business owners )
Saturday: NEW NEW New new......
The Show and not so Shine is happening. We are heading to a small town venue right on the snowmobile trail in Saxon WI. Rides Games and conversation as interest weather and space allow. This is a Wisconsin Venue and includes a light lunch catered in for show participants and guests. From this location we load up and head to Hurley WI to a photo opportunity right in town at a popular abandoned rail trestle and then snow cat to our Dinner party. Bar opens at 5:30 PM . Dinner 6 pm. Hurley is known for its night life with many establishments near by. Carry out is an option for the dinner program.
- If you have reached out and contacted Myself or any of the members here, You will be put into a Group Text based on the day of your arrival. Please use those contact points to coordinate your movement. ( the idea here is you are in town at the same time )
- Before you reach out and lick some bodies ear try to establish a boundary check, if they are backing up, licking their ear is not a good idea. Please be respectful.
- We have a Beef Sponsor ( for the Friday lunch stop ), if you are vegan consider bringing extra to share.
- the 10 day has snow snow and snow. not much cold this year. ( im sorry, the cold is a real disappointment to me as well )
- Snow mobile tag alongs have become a problem for our event. ( if you are aware of snow mobiles intending to tag along, they need strict direction to go snowmobile somewhere else on the Friday Trail event ) off trail snow machines are not allowed where we are going and we need your help to keep them out.
- If you have not received a call or message from me and are planning on attending I need to know sooner than later to provide our dinner and lunch stop estimates. ( Saturday dinner is the most critical )
- With just shy of 30 Cats in attendance, movement and logistics is important, When parking and unloading Look around a bit before you pop a squat. ( we don't use the rule of lug nuts, but its not a bad idea to give some thought to what and where you are unloading)
This is a tongue in cheek post and I hope you can interpret the intent of the event is fun and community. We don't preregister, or require any type of fee's so bring a happy happy happy attitude and some knowledge to share. If you are coming to mine for machines, the ones for sale will likely be posted as such. ( CONSTANTLY asking, is annoying )
See you soon.
I am going to take the plunge once again. Head first...
