hey guys...
we gotta do it again.
it was so damn fun last year.
everything about it went GREAT I thought..

I kinda think that 99.99% of what we did last year was right on target.
anybody want to change anything up this year ?

I'm not totally stuck on the dates...
but would really like to shoot for: 9/22-23-24

what does everyone think about that?

I PM'd this to Brant (that's B-r-a-n-t) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Figured I might as well share it here.

I'm heading down May 24th and I'll see if anything strikes my fancy. One thing we may be doing is the Canyonlands at Night trip. I think it's $50 a head but it's dinner and a cool boat ride. People can opt-in or opt out if that's too rich for their blood. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Here's the link.

Turns out it's Canyonlands by Night and probably around $59 total.

Hey this is cool being in the super secret planning place (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif)

I too think last year was a hit, and not much if anything needs to be changed.

I will be there the weekend after thanksgiving for a Mtn Bike trip so if I can do anything let me know.

rough ideas (maybe bad)

-change hotel?
-lodging at our dinner spot last year?
-different activities added?
-different driving routes?
-contact our fearless tour guide russ again?
-add to costs, subtract from costs?
-same award catagories?
-help Joe with awards, since he worked his butt off last year?
-John had the river rafting trip from last year?
-make sure that Eric gets a shirt this year, or keep the shirt info secret and exclude him?
-or just keep everything exactly the same?

anybody have ideas?

So is the plan to still do this in Utah, or pick another "Red Rock" destination?

I know we had kicked around the idea of the 4 corners area...

After everybody headed home last year, I hung out in Moab for an extra day. I met with the charity lady at the place where we had lunch scheduled on the last day. I forget the name of the place, but can look it up. It is right in town, one block off main street. It was not as nice as the river side setting for the dinner the 1st night, but every bit as good as the awards dinner location or the restaurant we had breakfast at on the last day. I think it is a serious option to think about for this year.

I asked the charity lady about hotels. She recommended the Gonzo Inn. So, I stopped by to check it out. It is 1 block off of main street, near the Brew Pub where we had the awards banquet. Also, it is right acorss the street from the liquor store. The person at the desk gave me a tour. It is a very nice place. Probably the best in Moab. They have a small banquet / meeting room we could use. I am not sure about the rates, but I expect it will be a little more than the motel we had last year. Still, I think it is worth considering.

A night time dinner cruise or a raft trip sound like fun. I don't have any suggestions, but I can tell you which river rafting company NOT to use.

The drive that some of us took to Dead Horse Point was a very good one. Highly recommended. There was a planned Sunday morning drive to the Canyonlands Overlook that never happened. Maybe we could try to do it this year. I thought the picnic lunch was excellent. I suggest we use the same provider again, if needed. I could drive through Arches National Park 1000 more times and never get tired of the awesome views.

Contacting Russ is an excellent idea. Last year he did not get involved until that last minute. Ask him if he has any good ideas about what we might want to add to our itinerary.

Last item - I will make sure there is at least 1 extra t-shirt available for Eric's hot wife. Maybe a special one that says "I think your 914 is sexy".

Hey Guys
I think if everyone can agree on the proposed dates, they should be announced to the rest of the group. this way people can start making summer plans.

ok...
I'll chirp in

I like the dates
(because I have races the week before and after and can't do much else for dates that month)

so I'm a yes vote for the dates.

anybody else care to vote?

if we get majority agreement I think we should announce it as greg suggested.

John how do those dates work for you?

Those dates are good with me too. Just a reminder, I'm going to be in Moab next week for 3 days biking, I may have some down time to do any scouting, ect. So take advantage of me, give me a job to do.
