General Discussion / Re: ~~~12th Annual Bombardier Rally 2010 ~~~ Info Here

« on: March 11, 2010, 08:53:30 pm »

Ted Playford has advised us that the Peterson Lake trip by bombardier is canceled due to a road being fairly impassible with the current unseasonable weather conditions and the activity on the road making it a mud bog. 

So to make up for it there will be some sort of fishing event/gathering on Athapap on Sunday.  I don't have a lot of details about it, but Ted will let everybody know at the supper on Saturday, so bring your fishing gear!

Oh ya, we are for sure going to put one back in.  We just ran out of time before the rally.  We're going to relocate the hatch to the front, where it should be right after the rally.

We are actually searching to get one made for the other side.  So far not much luck.  I'll ask Ray to see if we have any leads.
