We'll provide the Pig Macaroni salad, Beans and Rolls water and coffee. You guys bring what you can to make it a potluck. Sorta like always before.

Well you know Pat and I are in, that's makes 10!
Oops bad math, that makes 11 !

[Old Greenhorn]

I tried calling Hidden Hill right away to reserve one of their rental trailers like we did last time but couldn't get through on the house phone for some reason, thought maybe their phone was no longer (fast busy signal), then on a whim I tried it from my cell and that worked, but nobody was around, so I left a message. Hopefully we can't get one of those (now 2) rentals they have.
 Maybe we can get @aigheadish to come this year and some other new faces? Hoping to see many of the regulars too. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight.  Jeff, we plan to arrive in the campground Thursday, mid-morning so start working on a punch list of tasks we can come over and help with from food prep to yard work, we are up for it. It didn't take long for me to fill every weekend in August already. I only have labor day weekend open now. Of course, that also means no shows for me in August either. Ah well, I am retired, sort of.
 DanG! This is great!

[Old Greenhorn]

OK I finally got hold of Joe at Hidden Hill, and he does remember all of us from 2022 (can't win 'em all). He was very accommodating and we have their trailer #2. He can move that to almost any site we want, so when you folks start registering, we can call and adjust the site number if needed. We have site #31 for now. He did say bookings are low right now for that weekend, but he expects it will pick up when the better weather comes.
 If you are staying there, just make note of your site number, mention you are with the FF pig roast, and he can steer you the right way (I hope).
 Now I have something to look forward to all summer and will have to think about a door prize to make.

Joyce says wonderful when I told her  Two of us but I lost count,

[Resonator]

Woo Hoo!

I'll write down the dates on my calendar, call me number...

14.

Also talking with member's that made it to Jake's prOject, some are willing to volunteer their help for the Pig Roast. This will help take the burden off Jeff and his family for the weekend. I will plan to get there early to help set up.

[Old Greenhorn]

Good point Res, Pat and I expect to arrive around mid-morning on Thursday so we can get settled and head over to the house to help with whatever they have that needs doing.

[customsawyer]

God willing and the creek don't rise, I plan to be there.

Brent and Jill 
17&18

[doc henderson]

well, my wife's birthday is Aug. 30.  the big 60.  Morgan Wallen somebody is in KC the 2nd of august, and for her birthday my wife bought tickets months ago, and not nosebleed ones either I presume from the cost.  She said she could ask a friend to go instead of me, but it is her birthday gift.  unless something changes (like my wife) we will most likely not be able to be there this year.

[Burlkraft]

I can prolly make it  

[fishpharmer]

I am planning on being there! 

I guess Steve (Burlkraft) is 19.

Makes me 20.

[Sheepkeeper]

We plan on being there if nothing gets in the way.
Rick and Jannette 21 + 22

[olcowhand]

Steve, Katie and Stephanie (14 years old) will make 25.
This time, if we're going to be arriving late due to Katie's work schedule- I'll drop off our Door Prizes ahead of time.....
Looking forward to seeing everyone, but I'll miss you, @doc henderson 
 

[teakwood]

Were do you guys sleep? is there a Motel/Hotel near by?

[Ed_K]

 Rita said we could do it, so if things don't change   .
 That makes 26 an 27.

[Resonator]

Were do you guys sleep? is there a Motel/Hotel near by?

Yes there is lodging in the area, everything from motels to resorts in different price ranges. I stay at Houghton Lake about 1/2 hour away from Jeff's place.

[Old Greenhorn]

Sleep? We don't need no stinkin' sleep!
 Seriously though, if you take a look through the last pig roast thread (2021) you can se that there are lots of options and folks get spread around. Waiting too long can cause issues some years. The camping types gather in good numbers at Hidden Hill campground, so the party continues into late hours sometimes. My wife and I do not have a camper, but Hidden Hill now has 3 trailers they rent out and this works perfect for the wife and I. Last time they only had one and I booked it quick.
 But there are lots of options. Are you thinking about it? That would be SUPER!

[moosehunter]

We used VRBO. Got a little cabin right down the road.

(Actually, Mrs did the VRBO thing, I wouldn't have a clue!)

[DbltreeBelgians]

Jill made our reservations for Hidden Hills today and we will be on lot P2 which looks like pretty much right in front of lot 31 which I believe is where Tom said he would be. 
Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Brent

[Old Greenhorn]

That's what it looks like to me Brent! Sounds great, I am already excited. Now just make sure you check you tires before you head out this time. Nobody wants to see you go through that again.
