This will also be my last post before leaving tomorrow. ( limited access to puter ) I will attempt to be in the park soon after lunch time on Friday, still haven't packed the car yet, my bad. Bring your blankies and woolies and be prepared to enjoy yourselves.

Camping without Joanne, , now that's a sad thought. We're not going to need snowshoes, but warm clothes and extra blankies may be required to say the least. lol Willie , hope that you can get to TO and join Peter to be able to share a ride from there. My activity plans are coming together, and I'm sure we're going to have fun

I finally was able to get out the mass email, I've got lot's of plans for this event and of course will need help with the organizing and getting together the required materials, We do have extra tents if anyone requires one, always feel free to ask if it's a gear issue or if you have any other concerns. Sorry to see that so many of the regulars will not be able to join us, they will be missed. We will certainly amuse them with stories and pics from this weekend for a while to come so make sure that you're a part of them.

With Paul's aid the mass email should go out soon, maybe we'll have a bit more action then. Want to see the #'s grow just a little bit I'm making all sorts of plans for this event, it should be quite memorable to say the least, you don't want to miss out. Sign up now.

KINGSTON/BELLEVILLE AREA IS HOSTING BUT WE'RE ASKING EVERYONE TO JOIN US for HALLOWEEN CAMPING October 23rd, 24th and 25th CRYSTAL BEACH RESORT MADOC Madoc, Ontario, Canada KOK 2KO call (613) 473-4296 email: info@crystalbeachmadoc.com COST $ 30.00 for weekend camping, special group rate for POF WHERE Crystal Beach Resort , Madoc , ( Hwy 62 & 7) . We will be posting directions, but it's quite easy to find. Main Building (Office) is on the left, as you come in the park. Where you register, that you are with the "POF GANG", and they will direct you to where we are camping for the weekend. We're hoping that everyone will bring their warm blankies/sleeping bags and join us for the true final camping event of 09. With the halloween theme you know you can count on a spooktacular time with a great group. A costume is on the list of items we want you to bring this time. We're brainstorming to come up with some great theme based activities for the event and look forward to your participation. As always please don't hesitate to post any questions or concerns and someone will post a reply or will contact you with an answer. If you're short a bit of required gear we may be able to help out there as well. As per usual there will be a potluck dinner on the Saturday, with our trick or treat theme, could be interesting, lol. I'll be bringing a vegetable dish called " pond slime" and a pasta dish named " night crawlers". You can bring almost any dish you'd like, either standard or spooky, either way we're sure that it will be a welcome addition to our spread. We also welcome anyone to bring their well behaved dogs, we have quite a few regulars already. Any Halloween decorations that you can bring will be appreciated, and I need people to volunteer to bring in specific items . If you can post that you'll bring that item I can remove it from the " required" list. We need a big wash tub type container for the apple bobbing, and a bag of apples, also at least 3 smaller pumpkins and then 3 larger pumpkins, also on the list are 10 X 2 litre empty plastic pop bottles. I also can't find any halloween decorated paper cups and need a pkg of those.

KINGSTON / BELLEVILLE AREAS POF YEAR END CAMPING WEEKEND IN MADOC - PICS AND COMMENTS Posted: 9/14/2009 2:17:41 PM

KINGSTON / BELLEVILLE AREAS POF YEAR END CAMPING WEEKEND IN MADOC Posted: 9/6/2009 8:27:18 PM
Once again, I will only be able to join for a portion of the weekend due to work, but as always look forward to spending time with friends . The link in the prior post ( to our last event's comments and pics ) shows how much we enjoy ourselves. Paul does an amazing turkey considering we're camping when it cooks. Our past Thanksgiving dinners were some of the best I've ever had. I'll have to consider my dinner dish, if I can get there in time for dinner. I'm in Hamilton to see the big grudge game tomorrow, everyone say a little prayer that we get to kick some Argo butt. The park is easy to find, join us even for a visit, and you'll learn what a great bunch this is.

I found two recipes I'll try out for this event. I'll be bringing a cream crab dip appetizer and a carrot and raisin salad. Still hoping that the weather will be nicer than it was at the game last night. It was worth getting soaking wet though, it was a great game. I may be able to arrive late on Friday night, will have to see how it plays out.

I'm supposed to be working, but will take advantage of either sheila's offer of accomodations or paul's to pick up my gear. I won't be able to be there for the entire weekend, but will come up for anytime possible. We did have a fun time in tweed last time we were there, except for the grass skirts bit, It was also a great rain free weekend, maybe we'll have the same luck again. For any new people considering joining us, this will be another great weekend away. The scavenger hunt will be interesting to say the least

It was another great time had by all. We played some fun games, and had a lot of laughs. We did as always have another few people who joined our circle and fit right in with the crowd. I didn't get any pics this trip, so waiting as we all are for some of them to be posted. I'm sure the next event will be a great trip as well and I read that it may be posted soon. I'll help whoever will be hosting the next event as much as possible. Greetings to all, is anyone fully unpacked yet,

You will be missed warmhearted, I have another lady in Ktown who would love a ride, if there are any takers that would be great. I'll be hitting the dollar store, and hope that many others will as well, the scavenger hunt list is complete, will be printed out tomorrow, and of course the other games that I have in store for you all, , Did I type that, lol So looking forward to this, starting all of the packing now, we all know how full my car can be, lol. I won't be online a lot between now and the event, but will aim to pop in quickly. Don't hesitate to contact myself or mycountry boy, and other regulars who've made themselves apparent. This will be another great event, don't miss out on it, the weather gods will be good to us this time, just watch,

Good question to ask Bouffon! I plan on arriving about mid morning, but if I can't get rides for the 2 ladies from Kingston I'll have to set up and then return to Kingston again. Normally, it's safe to say that by noonish there will be other fish in the park. I think Paul ( mycountryboy ) plans on arriving about then again ( he can confirm ). I remember my first camping event ( Rideau Acres, hosted by JJ and Honesty ) that by 4ish when I arrived there was quite a group already. Of course there will be people who have to work on Friday, so the arrivals keep on happening til well after dark. Gem, time for you to take over the sleep counts, lol. Since we can not/do not/will not ask for any monies to help cover the event costs I will ask if anyone can help by donating any small prizes , and I also could use some specific craft items ( tempra paints, brushes, construction paper, markers etc ) if anyone has them already rather than me going out and buying anymore. Would love to hear from anyone who is willing to help out, even on any level at all.

We also have a couple of ladies who would like a ride from Kingston to the park, I will go back and get them ( after I go to park with all of my gear ) if there is no other option available, but if anyone has any extra room and will consider taking either one of these ladies it will make my day much easier. I'm starting to get excited, think there is only 8 more sleeps till we have to pack up and head out. Thrilled to see that Gem is able to join us, she does add a special element to any event or weekend. Willie, hopefully I won't need that superglue again this weekend, would love to be able to say it was a coon free weekend. ( Gem agrees with me ) Trailer camping will cost the same as tent camping if you're with us in our group area , which means no hookups. If you wish to be in an actual trailer area, separate from us there is additional costs for the hookup facilities. Don't forget people, we need wood to burn for the campfire so if anyone has any please bring what you can. Remember, ask any questions either here in the thread or email any of us regulars.

First, to Wendy, wishing you and yours all the best and hope that you enjoy your nuptuals ( sp?). As for what to bring for the potluck dinner, it can be anything, we need side dishs, entrees like maybe sausages, or hot dogs, ribs, any bean dishs, just about anything so don't worry about your choices. We do have some new faces , look forward to meeting everyone and helping them feel like a regular memeber of our group. My mass email did seem to work this time and I'm getting lots of emails in response so lets hope we can get everyone to sign up and join us.

Our site (s) area has boat access ( little piers ) kind of behind us and then a beach area on another side of us. Not sure how big the lake is, wouldn't want to swim across it, lol. We are very close to the water at this location if that helps , info for Stanger5x0. Welcome to the new faces, love to see new people accept the challenge and become part of our group. Last year when we first camped at Crystal Beach park we had over 50 actual campers. No one thought to keep track of the numbers of day visits. ( maybe this time , lol ) We will be posting directions to the park, too easy ,and prices for both day visits and trailer prices compared to tent prices as soon as the park confirms the required info. The # of sleeps is starting to get down there, . I'm so looking forward to the games and the administering the hunt . Once again, the hunt will be challenging ( that means for the amigos and gem as well, ). Not sure if the mass email went out, system says it did, but if anyone did get it, please let me know to confirm it was successful, thanks in advance.

Will be putting our heads together during this weekend at our spring fling, and the concencus for the details of the camping trip can be posted after that. Thrilled to see Willie was keeping his eyes open and has decided to join us for another camping adventure. The scavenger hunt should be a good one, we'll see if the amigos can defend their title. See a few familiar faces signed up already, kudos. I'll be sending out the mass email fore this event probably by Sunday, so will be informing a lot of people who aren't watching the forums. Looking forward to the shooter selection, as always, As always feel free to ask any questions if you have them.

We usually pitch in for community breakfasts as well. We set up a tarped area in case the weather is not our best friend and of course you'll need a tent of some nature.

It's official, I'm off work that weekend so I will be able to make it to both the dinner and the dance. I'll pull out some of the decorations we'll need, and have a few small little joke prizes. Looking forward to seeing everyone again, and know we'll all have a good time. Willy, hope you can make it down but watch for the weather, it's been horrible lately.

Just adding my .02 cents to the comments. Of course we had another great time. Thanks to everyone who joined us, from both near and far. We're trying to organize a group of us to volunteer with operation Red Nose on Friday December 12th, anyone who's interested let me know and I'll fill you in on the details. Not sure if we're doing an informal get together for new years eve or not. Will have to see what the masses want. Thrilled to see the new faces that joined us for this event, and hope that we've convinced you to join us again. Seasonal salutations to all, and thanks for all of the help for this event.

I add my name to the list of people who really enjoyed themselves. Gem, once again, you arranged a great time for all. There were some amazing costumes, and we all had a few laughs with friends. It was great to see a few people we haven't seen in ages, and thanks to all who travelled to visit us. We really must go on mass to an Ottawa event soon. Meanwhile, time to start thinking about the Christmas dance. Thanks again Gem, think we all had a blast.

Hanging my head in shame, still haven't organized the costume bit, will be rushed but will come up with something, lol. Gem is an amazing hostess, so I'm sure we're all going to enjoy her endeavours ( sp ) Not sure if I'll be online again before the event, but no doubt I'll be there for it.

gee shucks, lol Our plenty of friends is a great circle, thrilled you're now a part of it. Paul, Larry is woodswalker ( sp ) Don't believe that I ended up with a frying pan, but will check the boxes tonight. May have to ask if Paul ended up with it. I did end up with lawnchairs, so if any are missing message me about it. We did have fun again, and some of the pics prove it. See everyone for our halloween event coming soon.

Thanks for creating the post Paul. We have to ensure Larry is on the pic upload list as he has some he'd like to share. We did have another great weekend away from it all. We barely got any rain, and we enjoyed the sunny times. Talk about amazing vestas, wait til you see some of the sunset pics from the beach. We thank the new people who joined us for this event, and have realized what we mean by plenty of friends. Of course we missed some of our regulars, but look forward to seeing you all soon. I once again send thanks out to My Country Boy for being the amazing glue that brings the weekends together so well. Speaking of glue, thanks again Willie for the glue to repair the coon damage. Looking forward to seeing the pics as they get uploaded.

So glad to hear the regulars are joining us, and sad to hear a few of you who cant make it. I have someone who's trying to reach the park to confirm if they can bring a motorhome to have a site with water and hydro, if anyone can get thru and confirm the availability of such a site we'd thank you very much. Potluck dishes are still being listed, anything anyone can bring will be appreciated. Am sure we can count on paul for an up to date list of dishes. One more sleep, can't wait to see friends again, and the special newcomers as well.

I also am having some puter issues, so can only check this site while I'm at work. Still will check as often as possible to be able to answer any questions thrown my way. It's going to be a great weekend even if we are missing a few of the regulars. The people who are attending know that we're famous for being friendly and ensuring that everyone feels like one of the group. Always amusing to see what is going on with the 3 amigos, or should I say the 4 banditos. Watch out, the women are out for bear, lol Only a few more days till the event, so ask away if you have any questions or concerns.

So sorry you can't join us Gem, you always add so much fun to any event. Of course we'll see you for Halloween. I'm thinking of making some apple crumble for the dinner, and am sure we'll be starting a potluck dinner list soon. Down to 6 sleeps, time to start packing.

Welcome to the new faces who've signed up, you'll enjoy being part of our circle of friends. I have a positive attitude about the weather for this trip. Of course we deserve a weekend without rain. (but bring the extra tarps just in case, ) If you're considering joining us, but are short a bit of camping gear, don't hesitate to ask on the forum ( or even thru an email to myself or My Country Boy ) as a lot of us have extra gear and don't mind sharing. Still don't see a few regular faces, you know who you are, let's get signed up. Who's in charge of the # of sleeps before the event camp? lol

I fiinally got the posting up in the right place ( which is why the first thread was deleted) and thank everyone for their patience. Thrilled to see the number of signups already, we don't have much time till the actual weekend. Even so, we all know we're going to have another great camping event. Sally, keep twisting your brother's arm, we'd love to have him join us. We'll need lots of wood for the bonfire, and as mentioned a few warm blankies as it is getting cold during the nights already. I'll try and send the mass email out tonight after work, so we can let everyone know what we're up to. Meanwhile pass the word around, let's see if we can get as many sign ups as our last event.

Belleville / Kingston area members invite all to Madoc for camping on Sept 26th weekend Posted: 9/16/2008 11:15:32 AM
We've finally arranged for our final camping event of the season. We're going back to Crystal Beach Resort in Madoc for the 26th, 27th and 28th of September. Once again we have a great price of $30.00 for the entire weekend. We do not need to contact the park for individual reservations. Just show up at the park and ask for directions to the pof party area. We'd love you to sign up of course, so we have an idea about the numbers attending. Our potluck dinner will be an early Thanksgiving, and we're cooking a big turkey. Please think about what dish you'd like to bring if you're there for the dinner on Saturday. Our theme for the weekend is friends enjoying time with friends, and we'll see what events/games we will set up. Would love some input to see if we'd like another of our famous scavenger hunts. I will be adding more info soon, so keep an eye out for any changes to this post. We look forward to spending time with our regulars, the new faces from our last event and of course, even more importantly, the new members who've decided to join us this time.

The earlier mentioned exit from the 401 is the Hwy 38 exit , the exit # is 611. I always say when you see Home Depot on the left, you prob should be in the right turn lane to access Raxx parking lot. If you go under the tunnel at the train tracks you've just missed it. Everything looks like Raax should be open again by the event date. It looks like we're going to have a great group of people for this dance. With Mary Lou as the hostess, we know she'll have some great things set up for us. I'm looking forward to another great night on the dance floor.

Another great camping weekend was had by all. We saw more rain than we wanted to, and yet we still managed to have a great time. I'd like to think that we also managed to hook a few more fishies into our crowd, and look forward to seeing them again soon. Hope the newbies enjoyed their time with us as much as we enjoyed welcoming them into the group. We had the scavenger hunt that never ended, right Sal, lol. The final judging for this event is something a lot of us won't forget for a long time. There was the never to be forgotten duct taping that started the huge and hilarious waterfight. Once again, the potluck dinner was an amazing spread, with way too many leftovers. The pics will tell the stories, I've added a few names to the "can upload pics" list, if you can't upload any, contact myself, or I believe that Lady Linx and MyCountryBoy can also add your names. Keep an eye out for news on our next event , possible late September. Start posting comments and pics, sugguestions and critiques etc.

A perfect football game, yeeee haww, and I actually ended up getting the time off , so made it down just in time. Of course , I'll be driving back in the a.m. so I can still make it to the event. It barely rained for the game, so I'm sure our weekend will have just as much luck. I've given up on the biscuits, so will be scrambling for another dish. We can always use more salads, veggie plates and as mentioned earlier, fresh fruit is always nice, for those of you who haven't decided on a dish yet. I've still got lots of side plates and cutlery, and will be bringing them. One more sleep, and it won't be a long one if I'm to get everything ready in time. Meanwhile, I'm on cloud nine, we kicked argo butt,

It's almost time, and I've so much to do still. Even with the list of tasks, I'm still so looking forward to this weekend. This is going to be another great event, just look at the sign up sheet, and you can see that. Sorry you won't be able to join us bookkeepper and Wendy, but we'll have a toast for you. Remember, we always need more wood for the bonfires. Can't wait to see everyone. It's still not too late to sign up, join us for a grand time.

Only 2 more sleeps, yeeee haww. Welcome to papa bear, long time no see. I've got my water gun ready for the ok corral scenario, and will check with my son to see if I can get any baseball gear. The park also has a set of horse shoe pits, we may find some time to try them out as well. Still not sure on the biscuits, Kissable is still looking for a ride, if you're from her area ( or going by it ) please help her out. Time for me to get ready for work. Is it Friday yet, lol

Lets Not Think Rain Cowboys, and Cowgirls Posted: 8/4/2008 9:59:23 PM
Looks like homegirl will be the "go to" girl. Thanks for all the offers. We do need some large pots for the corn. The # of tarps we need is dependant upon the weather ( please be nice oh great weather gods, ) We all hope that you can join us Gem, you add a special flare to all the events you attend. Cinders, hope that you'll be enjoying yourself. Everyone else, time to start packing up all the gear, we're down to 4 sleeps. My first attempt at cowboy biscuits was a sad affair. I'll try one more time before the weekend and will see if that batch does any better than the original one. Time to take the plunge and sign up for another one of our infamous camping weekends and join in on all of the fun.
