Inter-Club camping information //Mike <mailto:Mike.Behrendt@comcast.net> MGBrew(a)comcast.net From: Steve Daiken [mailto:thedaike@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 19, 2009 10:15 AM To: mgbrew(a)comcast.net; chipaway(a)hotmail.com Subject: RE: April BOILER Hi Mike, Just so happens I JUST sent this out. Please pass the word: The date and place have been officially set for the 2009 Intra Club Campout, hosted this year by the Northern Ale Stars of Duluth & Superior. The campout will be held July 31 - Aug. 2 at the Buffalo Campground in Duluth <http://www.campingfriend.com/BuffaloValley/default.asp?source=GCA> http://www.campingfriend.com/BuffaloValley/default.asp?source=GCA . The cost will be $12.00 per person per night, tent or trailer. We will be in their group camping area which has picnic tables, fire rings (FIRE JENGA!) and electrical hookups. There are no water lines in the group area, but water is available at the main building and those with trailers can fill their tanks there. The campgrounds is next to the Willard Munger trail, so bring your bikes. They also have a softball field and vollyball courts we can use. Pets are allowed (yeah!). Saturday, August 1st is National Mead Day so, of course, we will be celebrating by making and drinking mead. More details will follow, but we wanted to get the word out so everyone can reserve the dates. Please forward this e-mail to any other clubs not listed above as I don't have their e-mail addresses.

Hope you're having a great time with the warmer weather. Luckily the basement is staying chilly enough to lager. But outside feels great. This is the first call for input/articles/columns/etc. for the April BOILER. Try to get everything in by Friday or Saturday (Thursday for Gera - wink wink) and I'll work with it Sunday and Monday. We need ROTM, SOTM, Foam, maybe more information on the April Club Meeting / Tasting... there seemed to be some confusion about what exactly it is at the Board Meeting last weekend. Chris, would you mind sending Brock and I some of the pictures you were taking Saturday at the Chili Cook-Off. It would be cool to have a page of photos, especially the one I think you have of you, Gera and Jon - the winners of the cook-off. If you three winners wouldn't mind sending me at least the name of your dish (the recipe would be the bomb! but I know space & secrets may be an issue, but if you don't mind....) I'll certainly mention BEER WARS movie again. I contacted the director and might grab a phone interview over the weekend. We'll add the St. Paul Beer Festival to the outlook for beer events. If you haven't seen the list of breweries expected to be there you should: http://www.stpaulsummerbeerfest.com/ http://www.stpaulsummerbeerfest.com/brewers.html An interview about this event may be more appropriate in May or June. I'll list the Saints tailgating information again. Is there anything new/more concret to announce about the camp-out? Since this one won't be mailed out and space isn't so much an issue, Jon and I discussed keeping an up to date list of the club library's holdings in the newsletter... a plea for input on how to increase our content (in the library and once again in the newsletter). What else NEEDS to be in there? I remember getting some e-mail requests which I'll go back through... but just in case anything new come up - I'll all ears. More surely to come. Thanks for the kind words about the newsletter at the meeting. It's all Brock. Holla at your chipmunk! Chip W. Fun Fact of the Day: Did you know we sure abbreviation with the Minnesota Hobby Beekeepers Association? LOL! Maybe we can co-opt an even and make some mead or honey brown or something. Wacky idea that just might work! I guess that means I just appointed myself, huh? http://www.mnbeekeepers.com/index.html _____ HotmailR is up to 70% faster. Now good news travels really fast.
