Well, where do I start? The past couple of weeks have been busy with full service river floats....temps have been right there where they just beg everyone to come cool off in the water....and the river has been very steadily dropping to the point there are lots of sandbars to enjoy. Not sure when we will get more rain but there is still MORE than ENOUGH water for several more weeks to enjoy a river float......
....had another class reunion in the lodge last Saturday night and another one this coming Saturday night.......but before we get to next Saturday, we have a meeting in the lodge all day tomorrow and three churches from the town of Ogden are holding their ecumenical vacation bible school here all day Wednesday.......for the second year in a row.......
......last Monday we hosted a big company outing in the lodge all day with meals, refreshments and guest speakers......
.....paintball has been very busy even with the temps being what they have been.......and about five more groups have made reservations over the next ten days or so.......
.....have a cross country mountain bike race here Sunday, August 7.......
......several of us also leave Sunday night August 7 for the annual Midwest Ski Area Association Summer Meeting and Trade Show.......this year at Devils Head........near Madison Wisconsin......always a good time to visit and trade stories with others in the ski area business......and to learn what is new in the industry.........but don't worry.......we will have plenty of staff on site to take care of your river floats and paintball games while we are away.........
......get home just in time to open our booth at the Iowa State Fair on Thursday August 11.......stop and see us there too........we are in the same spot as we have been for the past ten years......on the north wall (west half) of the Varied Industries Building........we'll have some sign ups for chances to win some give aways...........
......a reminder to all that this Friday night is our August Friday after Five .........with Big G's Log Cabin BBQ providing the food........music by Billy Club from 7 pm to 10 pm........no cover charge......and the vintage tractor show on the lawn........with no admission fee.........so come on over and enjoy the evening with us........
.....Nick Dell, one of our avid snowboard instructors and all around good guy got his bus license so he can drive one of the shuttle buses for river floats...........but darned if he didn't blow the engine of one of the buses on his first weekend.......hah..........wasn't his fault but I can't resist putting the blame on him!!!!
......still plenty of time to get in some camping, paintball or river float this summer, even though a lot of schools start withing about two weeks or so......and the weather is sure cooperating now........
.......come see us soon
