Title: last day of the tree clearing project.
Post by: 01sahara on March 02, 2008, 07:03:49 AM

I received an Email from Gary indicating  they are planing the last day 8) of the Ghost FLUZ road clearing project for March 8th.  They have the last 100 yard to clear and a good size crew should be able to finish it that day. Thank you to all the participants that have help over the winter with this project. One more days effort and it is done.

I will probably be there.
With a big turn out we should be able to get it done and then get a couple of hours wheeling in. Maybe we should supply food for this one. Nothing fancy, sliders?

hmmm...
I would like to get out there again and maybe bring some of the cochrane offroaders out as well... nobody seems to want to work, only play... I will let you know my commitment to this weekend later on in the week.

Ok
The CJA will provide gourmet (or whatever's on sale) hot dogs and smokies, etc. If someone wants to bring a grill of some kind I'll bring some burgers too. We should have enough wood to build a good fire to cook on.
I'll pick everything up friday night when I have a good idea of how many are coming

I haven't got around to shopping for food yet. I'll meet you at Smitty's and then head to safeway. That will be awesome if we have 20 plus, might need to borrow Blairs trailer to haul out all the food ;D

Alot of us got burnt out by 3 or so and headed home. I doubt it got finished, but we were getting close. We started out with maybe 20 people, A few each from the landcruiser group,quad squad and the CJA. Probably did a good 100metres, maybe more.
