Grafton Apple Festival 2013

[Russell Kanning]

cool
I love the idea of some sort of bike thing.
So Jerry can you plan some event? I would be willing to start the prize money gathering. I am thinking like a $100 prize for kids, older kids, overall, and best theme. What do you guys think?
Also I will throw in the first $100 for the apple food contest.

Maybe down the road we could do a crazy race with the big machines that jim and lauren make and ride.

So what day is this happening again?
I need to make plans to attend and advertise.
What do you guys think of the bike ride idea?

The Applefest occurs on the last Sunday in September

My bike is all tuned up and ready to go.

William says "Oh cool!"

Jerry declines.  He doesn't have a clue (and can't afford to buy one) as to how to organize a bike event. 
I nominate Pastor John as chief organizer of the cat herd.

[Russell Kanning]

OK
Maybe an out and back fun ride
If the path is not muddy we could go up the rail trail to the park .... Then race back down.

[Russell Kanning]

So we are talking
Sunday 9/29/13

[John]

Yes.

I think last year we did noon (with some folks coming early to do last minute set up) until 5 (with some folks staying late to help clean up), which worked quite well.

Perhaps a bonfire at Hoyt (at 7) might also be planned again...

[John]

I nominate Pastor John

Thanks. But, strangely enough, my hands are already pretty full...

[Russell Kanning]

Maybe William wants to. I have three prizes to get things started.

William says "Sounds good, I'm already coming up with a couple of ideas." 

This in addition to his Cider Meister duties.  lol
Lloyd surely is smiling down.

William also enjoyed playing the Bocce Ball game across the road on the commons. 

[Russell Kanning]

That is always good. I think John owns them.

We won't have bikes. I guess we can cheer.

Looks like we got us a convoy. Bikes verse 18 wheeler!

I prefer to be in the "rocking chair". 

Do the truckers still talk like that way?
