Yeah I guess you're right. I should just wear something I already have on hand. 4/19/2010 1:31:19 PM |

I just called to ask about the size of our campsite to make sure multiple tents were OK. They said we have room for about 4 tents. The tent pad itself is 16'x16' but there's also some other flat area on the site they said we could use if we need to.
So now we need to figure out who's actually coming and bringing tents, etc.
As far as I know me, Fareako, ALkatraz and another guy are in for camping for sure
ThePeter? evan? Are you coming along for the shenanigans? If anyone else who is going wants to join the campsite o' debauchery let me know. We probably have room for a few more. 4/26/2010 2:42:33 PM |

Cool deal.
As I mentioned before, I'll be heading down there on Friday afternoon/evening, and not Thursday, like you guys are. If anyone wants to ride with me, you're more than welcome. 4/26/2010 3:14:18 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
nah we're going Friday now. But I want to go Friday morning probably. But I figure I've already paid for the campsite so might as well just stay there instead of trying to snag one of the others. 4/26/2010 3:15:34 PM |
ALkatraz All American 11299 Posts user info edit post |
Sweet, I could take off earlier if you guys want to. 4/26/2010 3:17:27 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
Perhaps that would work. Depends on how many people end up going and how many cars we need to take. I think we were going to stop and pick up Metts on the way but I don't even know what time he would get off work or anything. So ... gotta find out who all is coming first.

I have a camp grill, propane, and a cooler. That's it for my camping stuff. I might be able to borrow a tent or air mattress if needed. 4/26/2010 4:05:28 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
I think Aaron has at least one tent. I own one but it's been stuck in a trash bag for like 5 years and I am afraid to take it out now. I might do that this weekend and see what happens. It's huge, so I hope it isn't nasty. I should have other cooking supplies depending on what we need. I don't have a sleeping bag or air mattress or anything but I've been meaning to get one. 4/26/2010 4:12:55 PM |

Nope. That's why I wanted to go ahead and ask about this stuff now. If we don't own enough gear between us then we can probably borrow some from other people or something. Just need time to get that arranged. 4/26/2010 4:27:13 PM |

We are going to take this route to get there. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Centerview+Dr,+Raleigh,+North+Carolina+27606&daddr=355+Playhouse+Drive+Mountain+City,+GA+30562&hl=en&geocode=FVusIQIdl65O-ykBeoo1kvSsiTG_MgxYrzA6jw%3BFTyxFAIdq6gH-ymPTBvoU9pYiDFWq3gx_GvepQ&mra=ls&sll=34.795762,-82.727051&sspn=1.513377,3.304138&ie=UTF8&ll=34.985003,-82.11731&spn=1.509895,3.304138&z=9
We can split gas up - it looks like we'll have 4 or 5 people total in my truck. We should be good.
I'm going to be checking craigslist for cheap/free firewood in the next few weeks. 4/28/2010 4:11:12 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
How early can you leave? We may need to split up into 2 vehicles to fit all people and gear. So far I think it's you, me, Aaron, Peter, Evan and Metts getting picked up along the way. (All I know is Metts has an entry into the race; I've been assuming he'd want to ride with someone, but perhaps not.)
Firewood is good! I hadn't thought of that. I have been looking on there for tents and there are some cheap ones available if needed.
[Edited on April 28, 2010 at 4:18 PM. Reason : Also can I pleeeeeeeeease make TWWWT T-shirts?] 4/28/2010 4:16:20 PM |
ALkatraz All American 11299 Posts user info edit post |
I can take off the entire day Friday if needed.
TWWWT Shirts sounds awesome. Please do.
I spoke with Metts, he is driving separate because he needs to catch a plane on Sunday so he'll be leaving early.
So that leaves the rest of us. It will be tight but fine. We can take another vehicle is someone else decides to come too.
Supplies needed: (feel free to add to) Firewood, tents, sleeping bags, grill, coolers, food, drinks, water, toiletries, a tarp (in case of rain).
We should have enough space in the truck bed. I'll empty my tool box out for added dry space.
I have two coolers, a camp grill, propane, a tarp, and I'll pickup the firewood and we can split the cost. 4/28/2010 5:23:53 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
I'll bring general toiletries like shampoo and stuff if y'all don't want to have to each bring them. I can also shop for food/drinks before we go. We just need to decide what all we want.
Also, I can't run more than half a mile straight. I'm going to get passed by fat and old people 4/28/2010 6:22:31 PM |

Hey slackers, there is a big Facebook event for this and a bunch of people are trying to unload their tickets if you want to get one. http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/event.php?eid=290245130844 But you have to do it today because tomorrow is the deadline to make changes to the registration. 4/29/2010 3:41:58 PM |

Thanks to ^ another Aaron is now coming with us. So we will have to take two cars, but I think that's probably a good thing because nobody wants to be squished between two people for 6 hours. And by nobody I mean me, because I know that's who'd end up there.
Fareako Aaron apparently has two-ish tents that can allegedly hold four people each. I think that's what they said anyway. We are probably best off putting two people per tent though for sake of comfort. 4/30/2010 8:59:12 PM |

Hi all, the "another Aaron" here.
I have lots of camping stuff. And I need a ride from Cary. 5/1/2010 3:03:31 PM |
evan All American 27701 Posts user info edit post |
i live in cary.
also, what's the plan? 5/1/2010 5:04:34 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
I, too, live in Cary. I can be the second car. Doesn't really matter to me who rides where. We can meet at my place if that works because I'll probably have all the stuff. Or the other car can meet at Allan's place or whatever. Check-in time at campsite is 3 so I'd like to leave around 9 Friday morning. 5/1/2010 7:44:01 PM |
evan All American 27701 Posts user info edit post |
do we need any other supplies or anything? i've got a bunch of camping/backpacking stuff back home, and i'm heading there this weekend. 5/1/2010 7:45:27 PM |
ALkatraz All American 11299 Posts user info edit post |
An extra tent wouldn't hurt. Sleeping mat or air mattress Camp coffee maker
If I think of other stuff I'll post it here. 5/1/2010 7:53:41 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
I actually think we're good on tents but you can grab one if you want. We do need more bags and stuff though. And a tarp if you have one. 5/1/2010 8:10:22 PM |
Skwinkle burritotomyface 19447 Posts user info edit post |
Allan, have you had luck with getting any firewood yet?
I am making the T-shirts tonight. Yay.
Also, things to bring that you might forget: towel, folding camping chair if you have one, change of clothes for after the dash so we don't get the cars muddy, bathing suit if you want to swim
What do we want to do re: plates and utensils and whatnot?
I think we are pretty short on sleeping bags. Not sure what to do about that. I am fine with just taking a comforter and sleeping on that, but if you don't have one I guess you can figure out your own plan.
Also need to figure out who's sharing tents.

Sorry about the funeral though
We can squish into Allan's truck now I guess. If we are OK with all going to the dash early Saturday morning. Aaron A.'s at 11 or 11:30 I think. Or we can still take 2 cars. I don't care. 5/17/2010 1:48:35 PM |
