SMORR Haloween weekend 2009

I've heard a few people mention a trip to smorr sometime in october but nothing offical, so lets start talking for real. Looks like they're open the 17th and 18th, and then the 31st and 1st of november. Any one have a preference? Hopefully my brother and I will both be able to make this one. And my parents would also like to come along for this one. Maybe we'll be able to sneak her 3rd gen out from under her watch and find out what a stock 3rd gen will do

www.smorr.net

edit: sounds like Halloween weekend has it, so put in for you time off now.

attending: Bronco2guy +possibly friends
T3h H4r3 + 2(possibly)
Techieman33, pwhiteelec05 + our parents
Gmanpaint
dislexiclawyer + brother
Dkchrist+friend in J**p

maybe attending: 88comingup

It looks like I will be free both of those weekends. Are we talking about camping on Saturday night and wheeling both days? Or will this just be a 1 day, all day/ night trip?

This is something I will definitley be attending. regardless if I have the lift and new tires or not. its close to where I live which is a plus and its long enough away so I should be able to do some trail blazing(assuming I get the money together for the mods). Count me in for sure! Can't wait to see some of your rigs!

Oct. 31st works great. Halloween wheeling! Night runs are gonna be a blast! Wont even have to cook, they have a great menu and good prices for B-fast, lunch, & dinner. Mcdognut's is down the street if that is more your taste. $5/night for a tent=cheap weekend! Good thing I didn't pack the camping gear for the winter yet

I would go for the weekend however my son will want to get candy and I will be taking him around. Unless I can talk him out of it, and you all just bring him some candy instead And he can go trick-n-treating around the campsite. He does have some pretty funny jokes.

Chad, I will bring a ton of candy. There will be a lot of kids trick-or-treating, going from rig to rig that day. They have games and are dressing up the place for the annual Halloween run.

They already have plans for an organized trick or treat, and It sounds like there will be plenty of candy to go around that weekend.
