Who's that guy that photo bombed you guys in the last pic, O yeah that was me with a big ole pan of crappie fillets.
I just want to thank all involved with putting the camp. It was my first of many more to come hopefully. The food, prizes and people were assume. Hope to see you all at the fall camp.
My first spring camp and boy oh boy what a great time with great people and to meet ya'll, there aren't words to describe the CDC family.:ThumbsUp
Love to see these reports. Thanks for sharing.
It sure looks like it was a blast!!!
In the pic with the guys sitting around looking mean, were they checking out the prizes or checking to see if Billbob was stealing their woman?
yep that will happen
Just got off the phone with the wife while she's at work, told her i'll be traveling to AR camp Tenn camp Kentucky camp and MS camp, i got the shock of my life when she said go, when you going to do it when your eighty years old, do it now.:crazy::crazy::crazy::biggrin Maybe i can use someones BMW to pull my boat.:Rofl
Had a great time with everyone! Entertainment Saturday night was great and so was the singer!!! Hanr3 even got a new boat outta the weekend!!! Lookin forward to one in the Fall hopefully!
How could anyone look mean with them beer cans sitting on the picnic bench, you meant mellow not mean. I finally got a set of rabbit ears for the tv in my pocket thanks Slab.
thanks crappie.com for a great event. the food was awesome, prizes were awesome, and the camaraderie. I'll definitely set aside time next spring for the camp.but next year I'll make sure to bring the wife and kids to this great event.I also wanted to give a special thanks to TomTom who did a great job in making everybody feel welcome and he had seemed to have a very upbeat attitude that made it fun.
Good people,good food,and good music=good times.
It was fun!
I would like to thank everyone that helped at camp, Kevin for cooking the fish, BillBob and Slab for signing people in, TomTom for selling raffle tickets, Sharon and Dee for setting up the raffles, and Bowhunter for everything that he did which was a lot,the main thing was getting the awesome music. Wayne for taking care of Friday and Pesce for cooking on Friday. I hope and didn't mean to leave anyone out that helped. Its a big job to get a camp put together and it isn't a 2 or 3 person job at least once camp gets started.
We are already making plans for next year camp will be May 13th-15th the weekend after Mothers Day. We lucked out on the weather this year but we are looking to move the Saturday night get together to another location that has a bigger shelter, parking, a bathroom on site. We will keep the Friday meet and greet in the same place as now as it isn't as big as gathering.
I'm going to talk to the lodge at coon creek and see when their closing date is for it and try and plan the fall get together before they close so that we will have plenty of rooms available. I should have more info on that next week.
Thanks everyone for coming and I hope we have many more to come .
You better thank yourself too Steve, you did an awesome job too. I would like to thank everyone that showed up for camp, some regulars and some new faces too, nice meeting ya.
Unfortunately I could not make it this year due to this new JOB!!! Really sucks because after last year I was looking forward to it. Hopefully I can make the fall camp!! Good people is what it's all about!!!!
Everyone that was involved planning and producing this event should be really proud! I haven't been to any of the other states camps but I think it would be hard to beat Illinois. My only beef is that I must have gained 10 pounds from all of the good food both nights. Bowhunter, were you the one that brought the sweet pepper cheese Fri night? I need that recipe cause I hurt myself on that one!!
Yes I did. Let me know when you're back in town and I will get you a copy. Its a simple jalapeņo jelly and cream cheese.
Yes great work by all camp was a great time. I am terrible w names and cold coors doesnt help but someone there gave my little boy a rod And i just want to say thanks again he was super excited. I thought that was a real class act thanks again
I seen TomTom hand a little boy a pole.
I would also like to thank the young men who gave my grandsons the poles.
Great job by all.
JMavs taught me a new fishing technique. Thanks Jeff. I really enjoyed you company and had a great time.
Had a great time at camp. Been a little late in responding. Unlike he who shall remain nameless, it didn't take me two vehicles to get not one but two boats home from crappie camp. :biggrin
I started a thread on the remodel. Today I got it ripped apart. Looking forward to next year, and hopefully the fall get together too.
Billbob, i think they all are a great bunch of gubers:cheers2
