TYBOO, can you set up a Mississippi River 2017 photo album for the members who have photos of the gathering?

Thanks in advance for all the work you do.

Well, another great gathering under my belt. A time to renew old friendships and make new friendships. And eat way too much! Always so hard to say goodbye at the end, wishing we all would be at another gathering next month! I'll upload my photos to the photo album that goes along with this thread, although I didn't get too many. Thanks to those putting this together and providing the great food! Colby

A big THANK YOU to Ken & Pat (Pelican), and Tex & Sharon (Bixby's Cub) for the planning and orchestrating of another great C-Brat gathering. Also, a big THANK YOU to Terry & Jay for cooking up such great chow for the group. For the short time we were there, we had a wonderful time and it was fun visiting old friends and meeting new ones. Thank you also to Dan & Peggy (Lake Effect) for inviting us aboard for the comfortable and casual cruise to LaClaire. We thoroughly enjoyed your company. Hopefully we'll get to see everyone again next year !
Paul & Joni aboard the Joni Lynn.

It was good to see a few fellow C-Brats today at the gathering in Clinton. Unfortunately, we weren't able to stay long because we are scheduled to fly back home to prepare for this impending hurricane. Maybe we can make it to Hontoon Island in March. Jonathan and Rosa aboard Salty


Hope all is well at Honest John's! I wear my HJFC cap just about every day. We are at Alton Marina until Wednesday when we head down to Hoppies and the long run to Green Turtle Bay!

There is a nice "thank you" plaque in the office here at the Alton Marina from the C-Brats. Mark says come back, he misses you!

Hi All,

Ken, Pat, Tex & Sharon want to thank everyone for coming to the Mississippi Gathering. It was so much fun to see our old C-Brat friends and meet new ones.

We missed all who could not make the gathering and wish them all the good luck with the devastation going on in there areas. May you all stay safe. our prayers are with you.

We hope Thataway can still make their trip, sounds like a wonderful time.

We especially want to thank the New York gang, Terry & Jay, for their great contribution of food and for doing all the cooking. Great job, again.

Thank you Tom (Sea Otter) for the ride up to Guttenberg, Very generous of you.

As mentioned, we will probably end up in Alton Marina next year. Finding a marina on the Mississippi that can handle this many boats is nearly impossible. I called Alton Marina and they were very pleased we were returning. Great place.

Thanks again for all that helped with the gathering and we look forward to seeing everyone next year.

Ken & Pat (Pelican)
Tex & Sharon (Bixby,s Cub)

Everyone had told us the "Meet In The Middle" gathering was not to be missed. We took their advice and indeed it was a great experience. Our thanks to all for making a couple of "boatless" souls feel very welcome and we look forward to seeing many of you at Hontoon Island (if it survived Irma) in March.

Special thanks to the organizers. We are well aware of the extra effort required and the many unsung heroes and heroines who gave assistance on short notice.

Hank and Pat Clow

Once again I forgot to give our sincere thanks to a very lovely lady, Jan of the Tully B. The Mississippi River Gathering would not be the same without her amazing talent to make the best of pies. We always look forward to the great pies and are never disappointed. Thank you Jan and Lee
