Oh Gawd, the drama! First, don't be cheap. We can use the playhole for free any time we want. Our dollars have benefitted the area and Greenhouse park. I personally have no problem with it. Jeez, it takes $50 to fill your tank and your holding out $10 for Benscreek?

Second, I had a Non-paddler buddy who didn't have any trouble finding the bike rides, etc simply by reading the program provided at the gate.

Overall, the event was well organized as usual and I and my companions, boaters and non-boaters alike had a blast. The fact that it didn't snow this year was an added bonus! This is like the spring version of Moosefest and I never miss a year. Good job guys! Well done on the park, too. I can't wait till it's all tweaked out and ready!.

You guys rock.

Hap.
