Subject: Pietenpol-List: Going to Brodhead and dogs? and the night before ChriastmasHi EverybodyWell it looks like Steve from Maine will be at Brodhead. I know it has been said before but I never thought I would be going so......... I did not pay attention.Could somebody give me the times and things to do and see. I remember something about buying a dinner ticket early. Did we have to buy a pass for the weekend etc? I will be meeting my fianc who is driving across country with her 13 year old son and two dogs. Her son has just completed 6 months of intensive chemo for ALL luekimia and we are all looking forward to some fun.Are leashed dogs OK? I assume fiance's are ok off the leash but I might be on a short one for that comment.As I have not yet seen a Piet in the flesh I'm looking forward to it. In fact it is 1.30 am as I write this. I feel like a kid the night before Christmas. Looking forward to meeting some of you.Thanks and best regardsSteve in Maine________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Going to Brodhead and dogs? and the night before ChriastmasSteve,Glad you can make it. I'm hoping to be there Friday the 21st. Friday and Saturdayseem to be the big days. Most everyone leaves for Oshkosh Sunday. It'svery informal. Most people donate $10-20 for the weekend. When you donate, buyyour dinner ticket. There are portable toilets and a couple of showers. Youwill see great people and planes. There is usually some imbibing after thedinner flights and a bonfire after dark.See you there!Jack TextorDes MoinesHi EverybodyWell it looks like Steve from Maine will be at Brodhead.

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Going to Brodhead and dogs? and the night before ChriastmasHi Steve, You may also see the Brodhead EAA chapter 431 web site (www.eaa431.org) which includes the fly-in dates and some photos of the little airport to give you an idea of the area. I think the site also has the names of some local motels. For those who may have a little spare time, there is a small brewery in the near by town of New Glarus, Wi. They offer self guided tours and samples. The town (New Glarus) is dressed up like an old Swiss village with Swiss food and shops. John Greenville, Wi.
