Upper Midwest Chapter?

[MN Cummins Lvr]

Being that the MN Chapter seems to have dissolved, I was wondering if there are any other chapters around MN, WI, IA, ND or SD? Unfortunately, the GLTDR is too far from me.

Thanks,
Paul

Paul,
I'm hoping we'll get something going here in WI after the holidays. There are some other interested parties, but we all seem to be a little hesitant to head up the project. I think we're all worried we'll be the one in charge! Anyway, I'll probably try to get something together soon. Maybe each of our states would establish their own chapter, but combine on some events to make them more spectacular. #ad

I've also been checking out the Great Lakes TDR site with the thought of maybe sneaking over there for some events.

The more the merrier! #ad

Hi Dave,

I think that is what happened with the MN Chapter too... nobody to lead it. Please let me know if you guys get together... i. e. pizza or whatever. If anyone else expresses some interest, I'll try to get something going too. Like you said, the more the merrier! #ad
Where in Cheeseland are you from?

Thanks,
Paul

Paul,
I'm in Green Lake - in the center of the state. I'm about 4 hours from you. Amianthus is near LaCrosse, so I think a meeting somewhere along the WI/MN border could draw some people. My wife is talking about a possible trip to Minneapolis this winter, so maybe I'll be up that way. I would think there must be others in the Twin Cities area. Maybe we can scare something up. There are also members not on the website. I think TDR will give us a membership list if we're trying to get a chapter going.

Dave,

Let me know if you are around the Twin Cities or if you guys get together in WI. Maybe we could meet and kick around some ideas for events.

Sounds good, Paul. My wife is zeroing in on the last week in March for a T. C. trip.

 

[Fireman Dave]

Paul,
I guess this topic could just as well be you and I e-mailing each other. Nobody else is jumping in. #ad

I live about 20 miles south of Milwaukee and would like to participate if you guys get something together.

Dave,

So far looks like March is open. Maybe we can shoot for a weekend before then? The Cummins is ready for a road trip to WI or wherever. Let me know what you think. Hopefully others will voice their opinions on a free weekend. If you want, my email is PontCat66@excite.com

I think you Minn. /Wisc. guys ought to schedule a gathering in the fall on the day when the Vikings play the Packers. That ought to make things interesting!

Guys,
I e-mailed all of you about the possibility of a get together on Feb. 17th.
Dave

Andy,
There's a bar on the MN/WI border that's half purple and half green/gold. That could be the place for such an event!

Andy,

I think you and the NW Bombers should join us so I'm not so outnumbered by these Cheesehead Packer Backers #ad


Dave,

Great idea you have. I responded to your email. Just pull the Packers flags off your truck before we meet #ad

One of these summers I'm gonna make a trip to the Great Lakes and look up you guys + the GLTDR guys! Probably not this summer, though.

You're welcome anytime, Andy. #ad

I hope to get back to Washington some day. I was in Seattle in '97, and I really enjoyed it. There's a lot more of Washington I want to see.

Hey I'm not alone anymore. I live out by Hutchinson. Has anybody participated in the one in Rochester MN? The dealer probably would still let us use get together there. Glenn are ex leader moved far south in too another state.
Let Robert Patton know about this. He can give you adresses from people around these states. Not every one has internet.
