Hi All,
Our event is only a week away (May 16, 17 &18th) and the final preparations are coming together. When Todd and I decided to do this (at the last minute) we joked that even if no one else showed our families would still have an excuse to camp. I must say we have been pleasantly surprised by the response thus far.
Right now I am trying to get a head count. As mentioned in the web page/ flier there will be a cookout on Saturday night. Todd and I will be providing items for the meal, meat, chips, potato salad etc. There will be a donation jar with the proceeds going to the Burn Survivor Benefit. If you can let me know if you will be joining us and how many you have in your crew that would be great.
This campout/ car show benefits a really good cause. One of the most traumatic injuries a body can sustain is a serious burn. Surviving the physical effects of a burn is one thing, getting on with life afterwards is another. The Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors helps hundreds with this challenge every year. Burn survivors are the most courageous people I know. 
I realize this event is the same weekend as the Air-cooled show in Ann Arbor. I was encouraged that some adventurous folks are attempting both:^) 
So far I have a count of 7 buses and some non buses. Hey, we are not choosy. Everyone is welcome bus or not, VW or not. 
If you haven't yet, follow the link on our site to the Camping reservations. Then send me an email to let me know you'll be coming. Hope to see you there.
