[Ct-nfb] Convention Campout was RE: Ct-nfb Digest, Vol 57, Issue 10

Hi Sandra, 

I think an affiliate campout would be a lot of fun. Maybe we could do one during the summer time if someone wanted to coordinate it. I would enjoy that. 

I also think that camping out in the first week of November would be tough to pull off. It's not really a time of year when people often camp in Connecticut. I have gone camping in November, but my family drove to South Carolina in order to do it!

Y'all take care now,

Justin

I'd be willing to "camp out" (in quotes because I'm just too old to deal 
with tents-on-the-ground and that sort of thing; but cabins and fairly 
cushy mattresses could work)!
