I know many of you are on the way and maybe even close to Chippewa Falls, but PLEASE DO NOT come in to the rally site until Wednesday. We will NOT be ready for you to park. If you come on Tuesday, you will be turned away. OK to come on Wednesday IF you are signed up and paid for "Early Arrival". PLEASE ARRIVE ON THE DAY THAT YOU SIGNED UP FOR.

Sorry about this, but setting up for parking here is a challenge. We could not start setting up here because the annual "October Fest" occupied the grounds through Sunday. Today (Monday) we start setup for parking.

Thanks for you cooperation.

Good morning,

Sorry about the premature message from the Convention.

Early arrival to the convention does begin on Wednesday at 1pm. Many of you
have registered to come in and if you have allowed extra day(s) for travel
and are running ahead, please do not hesitate to come in. We will still be
setting up the buildings, etc. but do come early and enjoy the Chippewa
Falls area. Take one of the many tours available in the area. One of them
is at the Leinenkugel Brewery. I do recommend that you make reservations.
It makes it easier. Reservations can be made at *1-888-534-6437
.* We look forward to see you starting at 1pm Wednesday.

Safe travels and see you soon!

Anybody that happens to be in Chippewa falls, How are the Mosquitos? seems around me, we just had a fresh hatch, they have not been bad all summer, but the past week, they have been out.

No bg surprise. WI is right next to MN, where the mosquito is the state bird.

just wondering, because I have not needed any mosquito repellant probably since June... Two weekends ago, had no mosquitos, then last friday I was picking up some light poles, and almost got carried away. someone else mentioned the same thing about an area I was just out in a week earlier.

I did not really get bothered this weekend, but I was not outside much at home, but when I just got home tonight, my wife was spraying down the kids in the yard.

Just wondering if I should be bringing my fogger. it is so nice to be outside this time of year, I don't want to be caught off guard.

Mosquitos not a problem here tonight. Cold and rainy. Warm welcome however.

Two votes for the fogger. The mosquitoes are out in force tonight. They don't normally bother me but tonight there were 3-4 on my arm and I got my long sleeve shirt out.
