Thank you.

Cruising with no issues, you should be able to make it in a LOT less than that.  But we had like 8 rigs in our group... off and on :greengrin:

About how many miles to Rubicon springs from Loon.

From the turn off on highway 50 to highway 89 is 47.4 miles, but from the start at Loon Lake to Rubicon Springs it's 7 miles

I still have the Ready welder in the box, if I bring it you can help too.  :yupyup:

BTW, has Marlin used his yet?

Guess I should buy more rods and that flat bar was a hit last year, guess I should restock that too. :willynilly:

There are poopers at the springs if you can hold it for that long

There are periodic poopers in designated area's off the trail in a few camp spots. Hit 'em up while you can!

Guys,

Remember, Marlin Crawler is only charging $10 for a dinner for two, which is very, very reasonable.

The $15 camp site charge is not charged by us, but by the owners of Rubicon Springs. They will be counting how many rigs are camping on their private land, and will give us a number of which we must have $15 per rig to pay for this fee.

That is why registration is $25: $10 for 2 dinner tickets, and $15 to camp. Also included with Registering is getting a nice dash plaque, preordering an event shirt, which will be very awesome this year, and you and another person are guaranteed a dinner meal. Without us knowing how many people registered, we really have no way to predict how many meals to provide.

Therefore, if you have not registered but want to attend, if camping on the Springs private property, please find Christine Czajkowski (Marlin's wife) who is collecting all of the camp site fees of $15 per camp site. In addition, we can NOT guarantee a dinner meal for you, so please bring your own food for dinner. If extra dinner is available, then we will sell meal ticket for $5 each!

If you guys had read my opening post on this thread, then you would have noticed the following:

MCR6 will operate much like MCR5 of last year. Highlighted by the Dinner Handshake by Marlin, and a Meet the Marlin Crawler Team Saturday Night, this year's event promises to be even bigger than last.

Again, like last year, we are charging a small fee to attend:
$15 = Rubicon Springs Camping Fee per Vehicle (required, Camp Spot)
$10 = Dinner for Two (required)
----
$25 Total

If the kitchen still has food after all registered applicants have eaten, then $5 "On The Spot" meal tickets will become available, but please do not count on this. If you have extra mouths to feed, then please include an addition $5 per person. The term "Camp Spot" applies to your Rig and the immediate surrounding area.

The 6th Annual MCR T-Shirts sizes and prices are listed on the Registration Sheet (above) and are only available on a pre-order basis!! We will preorder the T-Shirts in advance, so please get your orders in as soon as possible.
