Saturday August 11

8:00-9:00 a.m.? ?Trucks gather at Miller Ferry docks on Catawba

9:00-10:00 a.m.? Ferry crossings to South Bass Island on 9:00 and 9:30 ferries

9:30-11:00 a.m. "Talkin Trucks" at the shelter house at South Bass Island State Park.? The shelter is reserved for the group all day. (The park is located at the West end of country road 215. Directions: right out of Miller Ferry docks; left on Menchen, left on CR 215)

10:00-11:00 (Optional) Island Tour Train (departs from downtown on 1 hour tours).
10:00-11:00 (Optional) Lake Erie Islands Historical Society (http://www.leihs.org/)?

11:00-noon Perry's Monument

noon - 1:30 p.m. Lunch BYOF picnic at the shelter house or purchase lunch at the boardwalk restaurants downtown

1:45-3:45 p.m. Butterfly House, Perry's Cave, pan for gems, miniture golf, Heineman Winery tour, Crystal Cave, gift shops.? These are all in the same area.? Two hours isn't enough time to do everything, but should be enough time for 2 or 3 activities.?

4:00 Those leaving the island today must be in line at the ferry docks at 4:00 p.m. according to
the ferry guidelines.? I think that's really to make sure that they can get all the cars off the island before the last ferry runs to the mainland at 9:00 p.m.?

5:00-7:00 p.m. Dinner and farewells.

Put-In-Bay is a fantastic place.  Several years ago, my wife and I went over there and stayed for the day.  Absolutely phenomenal place
 
Amen trAVelingman, big fun

Jul 14
Aug 4

Any of those dates work for me

 
I would be up for it...if you'll let a Michigan Gal show up to your GTG? >:D

Maybe I will bring my boat over too...make a weekend out of it. Keep us posted on the date you choose.
 
It would be good for Michigan people to show up also.

I was hoping that this was more of a general area for Ohio, Michigan and Indiana people to come up and have some fun.

I will be posting activities what we can do on the island.
 
I feel a GTG coming together here :woohoo:

Sounds like we need to get you started driving that Avalanche.  >:D

RCHeliguy, I'll twist their arm a little at MCM.
Maybe I can persuade them to make the trip.  :D

Where is this? ?I have family in Salem... maybe it's time to visit...
mhough said:
:laugh: good answer... Ok, how about near Ashtabula or Toledo?
Closer to Toledo.
West of Cleveland, near Sandusky.

C'mon up and show off that new bed rug. (y)
From Salem to Put-in-Bay, you'll be coming past me.
We could cruise up together. ?:0:

Yeah, along with anything else with wheels. :rolleyes: :-[

If RCHeliguy would go to MCM maybe he could talk us into going himself. :0: >:D

For those who do not know about this place here's a linky

My sister and her family live in Vermilion, OH.  I too might just have to make a run up there for this, depending on the date(s).
 
I'll be watching this... we also have family in Cleveland - a little closer.  But the M-I-L lives in Salem, so we'll need to go there too.
 
I would LOVE to goto Tennessee, but I have another trip to NC over Memorial Day weekend.  Trip is starting to cost me a little more money than I thought.
 
Sign me up,  i will keep a watch out for the correct date. One thing this is not a family place you need to get off the Island before dark.
 
There's a link to www.putinbay.com in the second reply gives you all details of the island
 
Any other opinions on a date for this GTG?  :help:
RCHeliguy has updated the first post with potential dates.

It looks like some time in August is our best bet.

Yes, that is four months away.
But it will be here before you know it.
 
Aug 11 or 25 is good for me, if I count ???
