IA | Clear Lake Gathering September 21-24, 2017

[floyd]

We are considering a rally/ visit to Clear lake, IA around the week of September 24, 2017. those who have been there before know what a great place it is to visit.

Our plans are informal, just a chance for fiberglass friends to gather around a campfire for good conversation and fellowship with friends, old and new.
The timing allows for folks who come from Bemidji or going to the Thomson Il gathering... Or just come for Clear Lake at a great time of year.

Clear Lake is the home of our former fiberglass hosts and friends to all, Dean & Virginia Moffett. I think it is worth the trip just to meet them or see them again.
It is also the home of the famous Surf Ballroom, known for Buddy Holly's last show.

If I get responses here or on PMs, I will make arrangements and publish details here.
Regards; Floyd

[Hidalga]

Great Floyd! If you post details, I'll put it on the rally map. Have fun.

It would be a nice chance for Barbara to get out and try her new Ankle.
She will be half way through her 6 weeks of therapy after getting her cast off.
We'll have to wait and see how well her recovery goes. /wc

Floyd–

Thanks for the advanced notice. We'll be interested in attending if my wife can get time off from work.

[YourHighness]

My wife and I live in Northeast Iowa and this would have been a perfect, close get together for our first rally. Unfortunately we will be in Nebraska to view the solar eclipse. Maybe if this turns into an annual event we'll be able to attend next year.

[Kevin A]

Rudy, this rally would be late Sept. Isn't the eclipse Aug. 21?

[YourHighness]

Good catch! Perhaps we can make it after all.

[BruceG]

Count us in.

To co-opt a phrase: if you host it, they will come! I'm sure you will have a great time.

[Sharon in WI]

This sounds fun. We have a fiberglass egg camper made in Michigan. Hoping we can make it down from WI

[TorchSinger]

We'll be coming down from Rochester on Thursday. Are there any updates? I'm hoping the WiFi is pretty good because I have to work. If I can't connect I'll have to commute.

[BruceG]

I stopped in there and was told that wifi is available at the campsites.

Thanks!

Available wifi vs. dependable available wifi may make a difference for online work. I have used free spots at McDonald's and my cell phone as a mobile hotspot, too, when campground wifi is slow or spotty. It's good to have options!
