As mentioned on the main page we MAY have another winter gathering in GR to ride the beautiful snowmobile trails and bar hop this winter.  We were a small group of about 20 I think and had a great time.  Rocky was the leader and put much time into our plans.  We have some photos in the album section.  I did not take pictures of our "hoppers" at the bar.  We had people from our class and some above and below that crashed.  It was fun and a great weekend.  
Tom Pagel's wife was one of the poker winners for the weekend.  If I recall correctly 1st and seond place split $400.00 or there abouts.

Rocky and I spoke last winter of this being a annual event for those that want to partake.  It takes time to get people on board to build a crowd.

It might be nice to even donate our poker fund to the GRHS in memory of our classmates or something like that.  Several other classes hold casual events and donate to the school.  For some it is to the band, sports, ECT.  Maybe something for the arena or to the hockey department.  I am open to anything.  It is just a thought that might serve us better.  My two cents.  If you have an idea please let me know.  I will check with a classmate that works with the school and get their thoughts, then pass them on.
Email me if you are interested in a ride.  About half of our group rode and the other just met at our destination(s) for a beer and to play pool and gab.  It was fun.  We rode and even stopped at a rest area and did smores ( thanks to Rocky).
