Hey, I need to clarify the dates of this years hunt. I have the opportunity to go snowboarding in the UP during the weekend of the 29th. Unfortunately, the 29th is the last day of the hunt, isn't it? Please help, as my boyfriend is new to my world and doesn't understand why I wouldn't give this hunt up for my (usually) biggest passion of snowboarding. lol

Mr. Med Hunter

The last day of the hunt is Thursday, January 28th. So you should be able to take your $10,000 and enjoy the snowbaording trip.

Still not sure if I'll be making it or not...I have to work at 11 that night so if I do come it'll probably just be a fly by.

I have a pewter plate I won a few years ago that I would like to redonate to the rehash this year. I don't see it doing more than collecting dust in my closet and would rather someone more interested in it get it :wink:

I have not heard that expression in a long time.

It reminds me of rainbows for some weird reason.

Is anyone planning on bringing some nametags to the PDG?

The reason I ask is that if newbies come - sometimes it's intimidating when meeting new people (especially when everyone else knows each other) and you'll usually recognize someone's screen name before a face. I know I was shy when I came to my first PDG and only got the nerve to talk to 4-5 people.

My 'Orientation' to the cooler crew was at McGovern's - I printed out the website pages with everyone's Bio/Photos on it and went around getting people to 'sign' their boxes. stuff like that helps a lot. I am horseshit with names, so sincere apologies for whomever I get wrong at the PDG...

I agree that name tags would help a lot. There are still people whom I don't know and that would help me remember faces with names. I cannot wait!

Like you lol Art or wait is it Ah no I am just going to call you art there are to many of them here today!! lol what the hell is your real name again!! lol

Art Vandelay

That is the other weird thing, sometimes I don't know if I should call people by their real names or their handles. A lot of people who don't get the Seinfeld reference of my handle think Art is my real name. My real name is Dan, but I answer to anything. Just don't call me late for Yarusso's!

Yeah I remember the picture name bios on the old coolertimes website. That's how I was able to figure a few people out too.

Maybe some of the powers that be want to start a folder for that here? No posting thread just pictures/names, kind of like what you do for the clues folder.

ok. found the page. gonna work to get it incorporated somewhere.

anyone who wants to send updated info (since its old, and i don't have anything close to everyone), shoot it to jdm at visi dot com. what the "current" page has is your pf avatar, a photo of you, your screen name, and a blurb of info about yourself.

some people have their real names, email addresses, history with the hunt, other hobbies, etc.

from what i do have, i'll be filtering out email addresses (unless explicitly told not to) to keep spam down. so if you want that sort of contact information to be known, let me know.

people who are currently in the list and probably have outdated information: ian, scribe, big g, timmers, terry, mom, cluey, pay me, otis, leelabell, kitch, wolfpac, me2, ddy, 3m, vino, randy, zephy, kc, inks, lilman, mappy, esd, ot, ares, lilslim, tc, mm, kt, kop, ll, med2k, mr med hunter, novicain tongue, diggin, eags, nick, tmk, and mr. vandelay.

people who aren't in the list: everyone else.

Not sure what info you have for me, but here are my updates: started hunting the year of Chair-o-key. Attended the first rehash bash. Presently living in Marquette MI. Haven't gotten to hunt much the past ten years, but I follow the hunt faithfully online. Hobbies include quilting, hiking, snowshoeing and helping lost dogs. Love Carbone's pizza. Two grown sons, Mags and Drummer. Two daughters-in-law, one for each son. Two grandcats and a granddog. Yeah, leave my e-mail address off please. Anyone who needs to reach me will know how to find me. Thanks, Ares!

now that's a neat idea:

Meet the Cooler Crew

not gonna stay that way, but it'll work for now. of course, given recent events i can't say how much i'm expecting to be able to work on a real face-name matchup, but it'll work.

I just sent you a blurb on me. Don't know why I hadn't done it the first time around. Thanks again for doing this.

My new blurb isn't much different from my old blurb. I think I like the old one better, overall, but it could probably use the very last part updated. Thanks, Ares!

I've not slogged all these posts yet so this may have been addressed already. The Cooler Crew is not a set, static group - a given number that could be allowed in at no charge. We have always opened our hearts, minds and get-to-gethers to anyone that enjoys hunting. So, there can be no cover charge for not just The Cooler Crew but also for any Hunters that show up as they are part of The Cooler Crew, too, by virtue of being Hunters.

I hate to say it Folks With the Way That Yarusso's is treating us I think we need to have a sit down with them and SERIOUSLY NEED TO LOOK AT MOVING THE PRE-DIG THERE!!!!

They have done Nothing but be helpful in Every way last year with the Rehash and this with all the help they are giving to MM and her family!

I think someone should talk to them about getting the Whole place I know that we would have enough room there and they would go out of there way to help anyway they can I know it!!

we went there tonight for the Irish wake and the gave use tons of free food and they have done so much!!

I don't know about the rest of you but I think As far as the money goes they are Our home for the Cooler Crew!!!

And I think I may but I kinda doubt it stop by Obbs but I thin for the Pre-Dig I will be at Yarusso's!!!

Pro's to Yarusso's is the fact that if we do get the Whole place we can have the Music set up in the back room with room to dance and party and stuff then out in the other half you can sit and talk!! with out it being to loud!!! also the fact that if you dont like a song or something you can get away from it!

the Food is great and CHEEP the Drinks are good price its more centrally located to get on the Freeway and also if you need to go to the dinner after then you have the fact it is so close! and hell walking distance for that mater!!

the Con's to Obbs Is the Low room and SMALL ROOM!! If you rember last year there where half of the CC upstairs last year and didn't know that the Pic was going on and so alot of us missed it!! Also It is to loud in that basement! to talk that again is why half of us where up stairs!!

So I for one will be at Yarusso's!

sorry to upset the heard but you should know by now if I dont like it I am going to be heard! and I know there are a few others that feel the same way as me!!!

dont know if they will speak up but hay I guess I will see what happens for the pre-dig! Right!?!

Thank you

<--------------Thinks it may be too late for this year. But good idea for next year. (since we already booked and Obbs probably printed banners and stuff like last year)

Anyone trying to get something for the rehash? Or are we going to be outside? (Hope not)

So.... Has any obbs specific stuff been printed up by anyone yet?
Thu, 01/07/2010 - 10:33 PM Permalink

I think Iceman has good thoughts. You can tell the guy is loyal and caring! And I think having a specific business turn over their whole place to us, for us, is great. In my mind the only thing I think we need to hammer out would be how we would word any publicity so the gathering does not come across as a closed party and elitist, but open to anyone that likes to Hunt or just wants to check things out.

For all we know, Obb's might have donated food for Mysical if asked. It doesn't seem fair to me to pull the rug out from under them this late in the year - going back on a commitment - whether or not they have printed anything up and because someone else also accomodated The Cooler Crew in a different manner.

As the years continue to go by more associations with area buisnesses will be formed. Would it be right to continually disregard past loyalty to us because a new association was good to us in a different manner? What if the MN Music Cafe donates one night's profit to Mystical? Would they then be approached and Yarusso's dumped?

Maybe a couple or three 'Heads could noodle up a list of our wants/needs and do a pro?con list for both Obb's and Yarusso's. Then present the list to both places to see which locale could best meet The Crew's needs.

And going on past history... It would probably be a good idea this year to not make any promises for subsequnt years to the owners of where ever we land.

Maybe Yarusso's could be where everyone hangs out waiting for the Clue...

Art Vandelay

I like Yarusso's too, but we already made Obb's the place for this year and I think it would be really rude to switch at the last minute. Let's go to Yarusso's for dinner a couple times during the hunt, but I think we should keep our integrity in mind and honor the commitment for this year to Obb's. Next year, we can reassess, but it is pretty cold to just up and run after Obb's is planning on staying open later for us. Just my two cents.

Brad did you say that Obb's is staying open late? How late?
