I'm thinking of booking some Nickerson campsites for a fall kiting weekend. We all had a great time last June and I'm going to try and get the same sites. Last event : http://masskiting.com/event-announcements/nickerson-june-4th-6th-2010

How many are interested?

EDIT: We are going with Option B Oct 1-2

Weekend: Oct 1-2

Here's the reserved list.

Here's the reserved list. This probably maxes out the 4 sites. I'm not sure how the tent situation (& cars) will work itself out tho I'm sure we can sort it.

@JD I'm going to fly a flag at harding to make sure all locals know where to direct their angst.

Planning

I started to organize the Nickerson camping weekend. Below is the latest list of masskiters attending.

I'm trying to come up with the site assignments and need some help. Checkout the Google spreadsheet link below and please work with each other to come up with agreeable arrangements regarding tents and cars. We can only have 2 tents and 2 cars per site. Everyone has edit rights to this spreadsheet, so I'm hoping we can sort this out over the week.

I just bought a cottage about 10 mins from Nickerson so will be staying there. I can probably fit a few cars though if there is overload, and a few tents if sites are full and people still want to come down. I plan on hanging with "the crew" though at Nickerson.....

Thanks Patrick

Thanks patrick! Awesome, so what do we do when we arrive? We automatically just pay the front or did you have to pay in advance for us? Let us know how much we owe you.

What does everyone plan to bring? I can bring hotdogs and buns... do we need to make another google doc with inventory for food?

Four of the sites have been

Four of the sites have been paid for by me already. I spent $157 so I'll be wanting to collect some money for that. I'm also going to pick up a couple bundles of wood on fri, so I'll probably spend ~$20 more there.

I think there is spagetti dinner sat night & then egg breakfast sun morning. Otherwise on your own for food.
