| I would like to get some definitive numbers to help with deciding if we are going to go ahead with the Nov. 4th meet.
Please keep in mind, the weather looks marginal this week for field preparation and we may not be able to get it done due to soggy conditions (we had 2+ inches of rain here on Oct. 30).
We may have to go indoors with the meet if we go ahead, we have done this in the past.
Indoor meets are more of a"get together, tank running day" due to the limited space etc. indoors.
I would appreciate your response since it will help with planning. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

I would appreciate your response since it will help with planning. Glen: I expect to be there, I will bring hot dogs and condiments. I cut the grass today, it was longer than I expected. The area where we parked last battle day was high and dry. The general battle area was quite good actually, there was water in one section of the river. The area behind the battle area towards the church was a little squishy , water seeped in my mower tracks as I walked. Most of today was dry, but as I drove to the site a very fine mist was hitting my wind shield and a fine mist was on me as I cut the grass but nothing actually got wet. Wayne |

| I think base on the attendance, time of year, weather and the need to go indoors, I think it may be best to call this one off and regroup for a better season in 2018. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

Wayne Wayne Something has come up and I can't make it. If you want to still try to hold the meet, I can hand the key and trailer crank off to you on Friday, I will be around home on Fri. Just let me know. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."

| I think from what I am reading here I will pass guys. It looks like you are going to get rain for the next 48 hours so would be indoors. Not that I don't like all your company but a long way to drive to meet up with a couple of guys... _____________________________________________ "There are things in Russia which are not as they seem..."

| We are looking at some additional, local meets, in the 2018 season, on days that do not conflict with other fields in Ontario.
This would be aimed at people in the general area but anyone would be welcome from other areas, too.
One thing that is very important to setting meets up for everyone that is interested to check the forum for news and respond if they are interested in a meet.
I don't mind doing the interface with the Black Creek Centre, helping prep the field and being there for the full day to open up in the morning and lock up when we're done but if I am going to make that commitment, I like to have an idea of the attendance before hand.
So, please make sure you respond to postings about the meets, regarding your interst/ability to attend, it makes planning easier. _____________________________________________ "Luck favours the prepared!."
