Post by: mannyfergie on March 26, 2013, 10:21:56 AM: Hi guys,

Black is in, just a bit low for now but lots of rain in the forecast for next week
Salmon is in and our club will be paddling it this Friday and Saturday (great for beginners)
Beaver is low but our Highway 7 guru says it will be in for sure by MACK, will probably have a few ice shelves. A few of us are going tomorrow night to cut down a tree that's fallen at Double Drop. I can update you afterwards.

Lots of rain for next week and free camping for those interested but probably nicer to be inside...lol All the info on accommodations can be found on our website, just updated it this morning as well as the long list of prizes for the raffle!

Any questions, email me at mannyfergie@hotmail.com

See you on the river in my new yellow Mamba!

We'll be bringing both.

If you get a chance to playboat at crowe river bridge I highly reccomend it.

Post by: lafreniere.luc on March 26, 2013, 12:37:53 PM: I'd love to go but my wife has reserved the car that entire weekend. Is anyone willing to give me a ride (as well as my boat(s) and gear)? Obviously I'll definitely pay my fair share and then some if someone is willing to go through the trouble. Sounds like Richard/Martin/JN will be pretty full already.

Otherwise, I may just rent a car...

I've never been to MACK fest... do I need to register or book something?

Post by: wyszard on March 26, 2013, 02:39:21 PM: Hey Luc,
Don't despair, so far in the car we have Jean, Alex, Martin & myself, however the car will fit 5 people, so if the worst case scenario is no ride, we can always squeeze you in, with Martin & Alex into the back seat, might be a bit a cramped for 3 hours. (I am assuming that Martin hasn't invited someone else to come along, remember I am just his personal chauffeur)

Post by: jonyak on March 26, 2013, 03:05:46 PM: Luc I may have a spare spot in my car if I end up driving.

Post by: Martink on March 26, 2013, 06:09:50 PM: Hey Luc and Jon, Brandon is looking for people to carpool, he has a truck which can fit a lot of stuff, so if u wanna carpool with him, just message him on facebook.
Title: Re: M.A.C.K Fest 2013
Post by: lafreniere.luc on March 27, 2013, 07:17:35 PM: OK folks, thanks for all the offers! Since I happen to speak to Brandon Fasan and he's really looking for carpool friends, I'll be grabbing a ride with him.

Richard, Jon, I really do appreciate the offers though! I'll leave Richard in the "party van" with the kids ;)

Post by: Andrewdotcom on April 01, 2013, 08:55:53 PM: While I don't think I'll be out paddling next weekend I drove through the Marmora area today and can tell you that there was lots of water, should be some nice runs. Enjoy.
Title: Re: M.A.C.K Fest 2013
Post by: lafreniere.luc on April 01, 2013, 09:45:24 PM: Update, if anyone cares... I'll actually be carpooling with Jon Ward instead. I've decided to share a cabin with him and a few others which made more sense to carpool with him.

This is going to be a blast! ;D
Title: Re: M.A.C.K Fest 2013
Post by: Martink on April 01, 2013, 10:42:34 PM: So I talked to Jean tonight and he cant come with us so that means we got extra room in Richards car.

Post by: wyszard on April 02, 2013, 09:25:55 AM: Excuse me Martin, but maybe you should check with the chauffeur & car owner before offering any transportation services !!!!!!!!!!!
