Okay, I know you all have been talking in a different thread but I'd like to keep the list here.
For folks who would like to come but are from afar, and can't bring a truck - not necessary! Just come on. And check who else is coming in case you may want to carpool or even come with a group. Not necessary to stay all three days ... come and go as you like.
This is mostly so we can know how much food to plan for. We had such a big group last year, even tho it was soooooooooo cold. This year we should have a good group again, so we want to be sure everyone has space and is greeted with good old Stovebolt Hospitality.
So, here we go:
1. John and Peggy Milliman (HERE - we will take the front bedroom
... at least *I* will)
2. Leo "1953 Panel" K - coming from Canada via Buffalo and PA and camping
3. Don "2-ton" King - coming from MO, crashing (gosh, did you want to use that word??
) in Fredericksburg and heading in with the ODSS Presidential motorcade. Hotel Thurs and Sunday; camping at HQ Fri and Sat
4. Doug "Hambone" Hamilton - coming from
nearby, and requests Camp Site #1 (
John said the spot over the septic field is available.)
5. 485WINDO coming from Middletown, MD on Friday, hauling his '48 truck (with a cap for his sleeper)
6. Chris Sweet and family (5) from Frederickburg, VA; Rocket is the little guy coaxing you to come on down! Sweet is the ODSS Sergeant At Arms.
7. Mario and family (4) coming from Virginia Beach, VA with camping trailer and tent
8. Grigg, Jr and III coming in from Lexington, VA - Jr. is bringing a boat (ohh-la-la) and III hopes to drive his '51 GMC - coming Friday noon-ish/Saturday; camping on the grounds
9. Billy Marlow is coming in Thursday from far far away Dayton, MD with the '46 COE, and a suitable vehicle to sleep in
10. Jim "53 green 1- ton" Schmidt is coming in from Bucks County, PA on Friday, driving or towing the '53
11. Alec "AWinLex" W coming in from Lexington VA probably with Grigg II and II
12. Mike Roache is coming from afar on Friday morning and bringing his Roache Coach. Although he did not mention this, I am sure Dempsey (1952 Chevy 2-ton) will also be coming.
13. Carl "52Carl" will be heading up from Southern Virginia (part of the Tidewater gang).
14. Mike "Mike B" Boteler will be coming from afar, too (15 minutes away?) on Friday and gonna camp in his truck (weather permitting)
15. George "Napco Man" Van O will be coming in from far off Virginia. Hopefully, his son Jack (awesome banjo picker) will be able to come, too.
16. Steve "Frank 58" is a new guy who lives near Mike Roache and will share space with him. I believe they are bringing in "Frank," the '58.
17. "Larry W" coming from Richmond with his camper.
18. Chris "ndkid275" F with two little ones (1 and 4) coming from Northern Virginia.
19. Jim "fourbrads" B and family (3-ish) coming from Virgnia
20. Gary "gwsut" coming from Bryantown, MD coming for Friday and Saturday.
21. Tim "TPR57C" Pryor coming from Australia, arriving at Dulles on Wednesday
22. Jim "hardshell" coming from Virginia on Friday and pitching a tent.
23. "Moonlight" coming from Delmarva, MD on Saturday
24. Cedric "63stepsideLB' Brown coming from Culpepper VA on Saturday
25. "nj56gmc" from Brick Township, New Jersey bringing his 1956 GMC, coming down on Thursday pm and staying in local motel
A few of the local guys who will be here Saturday:
John Laychak (Snap-On Dealer)
Hank ("V-8") (M-37 guy)
Dan P (Our Rover pal from years past)
Andre (The donut King and new K-5 Blazer owner)
