The current list says 37, add Harold and Sandi for 39?

aigheadish · May 22, 2024, 07:16:38 AM

Nope, the top line (Name) is #1. 38.

I am gonna try to make it this year! As far as accommodations go, do I need to look in the Harrison Mi area?

trapper · May 27, 2024, 08:48:24 PM

that would be best Harrison is a resort town so dont wait too long to make a reservation There are other small towns a bit further away.

I'm on vacation this week and don't have access to my spreadsheet. I'll add you next week when I get back.

kiko · May 30, 2024, 12:01:23 AM

Clare County I assume.

aigheadish · June 04, 2024, 10:24:04 AM

kiko is 39

okmulch · June 04, 2024, 08:41:09 PM

Maybe this is a bit premature, but this being my first round of a Pig Roast @Jeff are there any specific things you want people to bring? I'm sure there is some easy stuff like paper plates, utensils, paper towels, trash bags, etc. but how can we start preparing to help otherwise? Are there side dishes we can bring? Can I supply some beers/bourbons? Should we bring our own chairs? I can add to the spreadsheet a column for supplies folks can bring.

Jeff · June 05, 2024, 01:45:22 PM

This year especially, any help would be appreciated. We will have water and coffee for drinks, if you would like other beverages, please bring some along, keeping in mind this is a family event. We will have ice as well.

Any sides are appreciated, but not nessesary. We will have pig, beans, maccaroni salad Ice cream and condiments. If someone wanted to bring rolls we could mark that off our side.

We have a lot of seating, but bringing your favorite chair is common.

Some folks bring something to add to the door prizes, so that is fun to bring, but again NOT! nessesary and not something we would need to keep track of here.

aigheadish · June 06, 2024, 08:49:32 AM

Sounds good. I'm getting excited for it!

If needed- I can cover paper plates, utensils, napkins/paper towels, cups, and trash bags . I'm guessing ~200 of each but not sure how long is spent at the event. Looking at the last one's thread it looks like a dinner Friday evening, breakfast and lunch Saturday? I'm fairly sure we can cover anything you guys need. Hosting this sort of thing is a huge enough deal without worrying about the minutia.

Are you opposed to beer/bourbon or just people making fools of themselves (in regards to it being a family event)? I can keep mine in the campsite...

I'll have to think of something for a door prize. I haven't nearly the skill or talents of everyone else here, but maybe I'll come up with something cool.

Jeff · June 06, 2024, 09:45:31 AM

Alcohol is fine, long as it is just a preferred beverage, not an event.

Jeff · June 07, 2024, 10:34:18 AM

The pig and porta potties were ordered this week. I hope this topic starts fill out.

teakwood · June 08, 2024, 09:04:25 AM

I'm looking for flights so almost count me in. aigheadish is so king to pick me up in Detroit.

Old Greenhorn · June 08, 2024, 09:06:40 AM

I love it when a plan comes together! Looking forward to sitting around the fire and chewing the fat with you!

aigheadish · June 10, 2024, 07:24:18 AM

teakwood makes 44

Cedarman · June 11, 2024, 06:54:16 AM

Dick and Jane and maybe Danielle.
46
Have always had a great time.
There were 2 times that I did not, those were when I did not go when I first found out about the pigroast and had to read about all the fun you all had. The second , I was in the hospital with a clot in the leg and had to read all about it on the forum.
Looking forward. Drooling, thinking of eating some crisp outer pig.

aigheadish · June 11, 2024, 09:57:31 AM

I know it's early but would anyone like to commit to Rolls for the Pigroast, or any other sides/supplies? I've started adding that stuff to the spreadsheet as well. Maybe if @Jeff hasn't already bought it we could take some of what he is providing off his plate too... I'm thinking the generics like ice and condiments? It all adds up!

jb616 · June 11, 2024, 11:13:09 AM

I will bring rolls. How many will we need @Jeff ?

aigheadish · June 11, 2024, 01:10:35 PM

Yay! Great!

Many hands make light work, or something to that effect!

Also, are some "Hello! My name is ________" tags appropriate and is there already a supply? I can order some of those as well.
