On any given Clave day, a hardy gang of float tubers, kayakers, pontooners, canoers, and/or spectators might launch their craft upon a local pond to scare otherwise-willing fish into submission. With age and attrition it's harder to launch a big flotilla, but we do still try. We'll decide which pond to assault after we get a current condition report, but most flotillas will likely be held at a pond with drive-up access -- more and more it seems, we're packing pontoon boats and canoes instead of more portable float tubes, so access is an important consideration. Well, that and we're all getting older.
Often there is a spare float tube or two in camp available in case any flotation-impaired conclavers would like to join us. Meanwhile, plans for the flotilla will develop as the clave goes on. I'll try to keep abreast of any plans, so check with me if you're interested and I'll at least point you to the conspirators for more information.
It's not likely this event will happen this year, though we will very likely play a round of mini-golf instead. We can determine the day based on camp realities and forecast. Feel free to join us! Specific details will be worked out at the campground, so keep your ears on and talk to me that week if you're interested.
The traditional feasts will commence late in the day somewhere in or near the main tarp. Bring food to share if you're so inclined, but at least bring an appetite. Paper plates, plasticware, napkins, and drinking cups will be provided for those who need them.
Other evenings earlier in the week also feature communal dining at the Slum for anyone so inclined.
For more info see the NEC FAQ.
Stay tuned for more activities, and by all means let me know if you have a suggestion for one.
