just wanted to give everyone a heads-up about our dates for the Fall Fling in Wren, MS this year. For those of you that missed it last year (we hosted IRCHA SE) we had a great turnout and hope to continue to grow it this year. I'll post more details as the date approaches but here's the basics: Oct 10-12, 2008(second weekend in October), basic camping sites, water availiable, great fun and food, great time...
for more information and some pics from last years event:

The lake is stocked now, catfish should be 3/4lb. by fall.

Had a great time there last year! Awesome field with a lot of room to fly.
Have to see whats on the schedule. I think I am going to Texas, not sure if I can make it or not???
Yes we can fish the lake. Shall we plan on a fish-fry, or a fish-fly ?

Ok then, you bring the darksky, I'll bring the scope! :YeaBaby:
The downside is that the next tuesday (14 oct) will be the full moon, so some of the deep sky stuff may not be as easy to find as it was last year, but the moon should be bright enough to project out the eyepiece onto paper for all to see at once.

Hey there Randy, I had a great time in tullahoma last year despite planting my heli.
I wish that I could make it this year, but there's just no way around that week for me...

From what Alan told me dynamite is optional :) lol
OK so who will be the first of us to do it with a heli.. I have seen it done by one of the freaks before and I thought it was hillarious.. So who coming to the Wren event will do it.

Bill,
We stayed at the Hampton Inn in Tupelo last year and it is pretty nice. It is about a 30 minute drive from the field. I'm not sure if there are any hotels that are closer.
I look forward to seeing everyone again this year!!!!
