FALL CAMPING TRIP!!!



The Annual Fall Camping Trip is just two weeks away!  So here is a recap of the details:

Where: Pine River - Manistee National Forest
We'll be camping at Pine River Paddlesports, on the Pine River

When: OCT 5-7
leaving Friday (time TBD) and returning Sunday

What:  Included in the cost of the trip is all of your food for the weekend, camping and canoe rental Saturday morning, those that are interested will be able to canoe the Pine River

We will be inside of the Manistee National Forest, so a hike in the woods, maybe some birding and wildlife viewing will be possible as well.  Additional activities will be posted when we know what they are.

Cost:  Cost is $40/person which includes all of the items noted above

Travel:  We will carpool, and the cost of gas will be split between passengers
in each car.  We don't expect it will be too costly



Important:  In order to attend you MUST fill out a registration form, available at the upcoming meeting, or by email (please request).  The form MUST be returned to an E-board member by Sept 28th.  And you will have to have at least your semester dues paid at the time you register.  Reminder: semester dues are $15, yearly dues are $30.

Also!!  If you have any camping equipment, particularly propane stoves or portable cooking utensils/methods, PLEASE bring them along!  

If you have any questions, see Drew Rayner or another E-Board member or send us an email at msufwclub@gmail.com
