Agreed...great idea! Trout River "Troutfest" will be out though. We may need to make a growler run. :monkey:
You can say hi to Troutmonkey!


For the menu, I am thinking:

Saturday breakfast:
Blueberry Pancakes w/maple syrup
Bacon
Coffee (sugar & creamer)
OJ

Saturday snacs:
MBC's taco dip (if she wouldn't mind making it)
Pumpkin Bread
Chips n' Salsa

Saturday dinner:
Something tasty...maybe chili or mac-n-cheese or something hearty & warm

Saturday dessert:
Homemade apple crisp

Sunday Breakfast:
Breakfast sandwiches (egg, cheese, sausage)
OJ
Coffee
Treesaw...I think I love you and I barely even know you.....

Mark & I are CONFIRMING for Fall Monkeyfest and we will be staying in the lodge this time!!!! I don't know the rules about claiming space, so someone help me out.... Do we need to claim bunk beds? How many people fit on the loft? Should we bring air-matresses just in case? Etc...

There may be a +1 if Christopher comes with us... a think that depends solely on his hockey schedule.

YAY!!!!! I can't wait!!

Once you're confirmed, you are reserved a bed (first come, first served) :D

The lodge is filling up nicely...looks like we'll have a fun crowd of monkeys :cheers:

:cheers:

Looks like about 20 are going so far. As far as food is concerned, bring something to eat Friday night. Other than that, TreeSaw's menu will keep you plenty fed. And as far as beer goes, yes, bring beer. :D

Taken from the last MF thread:

Directions to the Algonquin Lodge are:
East Burke, VT ( put that into Google maps )

go through the center of town , and 114 will go left , then there will be a ball field on the left , the barn like house (big white house) next to the ball field is it. There will be a bunch of cars and I will try to have the RideMonkey Banner (Splat can you bring it) out for all to see).

I tell people to aim for East Burke Sports.

439 Vt Route 114
East Burke, VT 05832

Monkeycamp is about 1/4 mile past East Burke Sports on the left.

I think there are still bunks available, but floor space in the loft has all been claimed.

Welcome to Ridemonkey! See at the 'fest!

Great count Matt and Kerri in ***2 confirmed for Friday & Sat nights***! We would prefer loft space if any becomes available but we'll take a bunk if that's all that's left. We'll bring the air mattress just in case!! We do also have Monday off but we'll wait and see what everyone else's plans are before we decide if we're staying Sun night. Can't wait to go. looking forward to meeting many of you!

Is there still room on the floor for 2 more people? I'm Heidi and I ride with the girls: Beth, Claire and Kerri. All of whom are also going. I was wondering if I could also be part of this debauchery.

I thought there were only 14 bunks? A six bunk room and an 8 bunk room. They say the lodge sleeps 20 and with 4 more in the bedrooms and two on the pull out sofa it adds up.

Anyway, glad you are coming Heidi! We can claim the smaller bunk room. You two, Matt, Kerri, Claire, and me. If Strangeland and his gf come then we can claim the larger bunk room.

Eight bunk room

BadDNA: It'll be SparrowOnMe (Heidi) and Brendan. Should I give him a funny name too? I don't know everyone's secret identity. I think Woodsguy is Kevin???

I'll bring too much beer! : ) I know Claire LOVES my rice and bean dish for mtn biking. . . : )

Oops, I almost forgot that Beth and Mark are going as well. In that case we will take the larger bunk room. Also, I've heard rumors that Mark might not be going so that would leave room for Andrew to bunk in the larger bunk room with us.

So to sum up in the large bunk room will be:
1) Heidi (SparrowOnMe)
2) Brendan (w/ SparrowOnMe)
3) Kerri (MtbkrWanaB)
4) Matt (MtbkrWanaB)
5) Clarie (badcrumble)
6) Kevin (woodsguy)
7) Beth (Irishblue76)
8) Mark (w/ Irishblue76) or Andrew (Strangeland2)

This is going to be a riot!

Im most likely out. This house foundation build really put a wrench in my works (who the hell builds round houses with 16" concrete block?). I was hoping to have more done by the time of the fest but its not looking to good so far. Keep me in the maybe column and if everything fills up I ll try and sleep under a bunk or something.
