Randy,

Thanks for taking this on again for next year. This should be plenty of time to "save the date." I bet the GABfest will grow. You've got a great core bunch of Bolters. thumbs_up

For those who want a little downlow, here is the HOT WASH from last year.

More info for the 2024 Great Lakes GABfest. I am attaching a copy of the flyer for this event, and also a copy of the first Stovebolt Times.

We hope to see you next August!

Thanks for the reminder, there is a slight chance the wife and I may be going thru that area about that time frame.
We want to do a sight seeing vacation hitting some of the light houses around Lake Michigan. Part of the trip would include a Steamship ferry ride across the lake from Manitowoc to Ludington Mi.

Will not have an old truck with us though.

Hello Don!

It would be great if you could attend, no problem if you did not bring your truck.

Hope to see you there!

Here you go from Randy's earlier post when he was setting up the GABFest. I think it has all the info needed.

I also wanted to include last year's group photo. thumbs_up It's a nice crowd and it's the current icon for the GLB that's in the description for this region.
