We are capping participation at 60 do to the limited space. Website with further information and registration forms will follow shortly. Feel free to contact me in order to be placed on the list.

Sign me up! Drill, Drill, Drill. Enjoyed the last event down there, and found out that it does snow on the Gulf.

Will Skinner's seafood be catering the event? If so I am THERE!

Re: Fort Gaines 2012

I would almost do a one man catering job just to get you down there!

All, the event is coming together very well. While we opted NOT to have a website, you can email me at westernpicket63@yahoo.com to get a registration packet.

I am VERY happy to announce that Joe Blunt will be back this year and is bringing a new assistant with him. Please be aware that we will be camping inside the officers quarters in order to take full advantage of the bunks. It would be really lonely in there for me if only officers slept in there! Please be advised that we will all be on our own for food on Friday night. I fully suggest invading one of the local seafood restaurants, or bringing something to prepare on your own.

If anyone is interested in a carpool opportunity from Middle Tennessee or along the I-65 corridor, please send me a PM. Thank you, and I look forward to seeing everyone on the island.
