    Let's not get too far out on trying to reverse a small issue... No one wants to play line police and spend time stamping hands or checking tickets, or worse turning someone out of the chow line...It takes the fun out of the Hang.

    Everyone just need to recognize the cost of blocking entire park camp areas for the weekend, great professional meals, sodas, trucked in fire wood, professional name tags,and some minor reimbursements for the charcoal etc is significant...It is an absolute bargain at $10 for a ticket especially when a ticket has an about an 80-85 percent chance that it will win a prize at the raffle...A raffle that last year had close to $ 2,000 in total prizes, all donated by the vendors and individual contributors, and almost every prize has a retail value between $10 and as much as $300.

    Covering the costs and handling the year in advance payment, as well as being good citizens of our chosen advoction by supporting the form, the ATC, The PGFSP museum, Fiends of PGFSP (like all years past) is easily done if everone gets one or two raffle tickets per head in thier group (Families keep it to one per head. Those that can, buy 2 or more)...

    Remember, every dollar covers cost or is donated back to our community...And there is an accounting posted in the after action thread each year.

    We can keep this easy and fun and in expensive... If everyone plays reasonably.

    Can anyone help me. I'm looking for a Cathlic Church nearby. Are there any handy, and if not how far away is the closest?

    Yea MML is an even bigger riot in person. Ya haven't hiked till you have done trail time with a guy in a kilt wearing a pirate hat! Not the baseball pirate hat; a tri corner, honest ta goodness pirate hat! I'm gonna miss all the fun.
    I like refried beans. That's why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're just wasting time. You don't have to fry them again after all.

    The closest catholic church is about a 20 minute drive. Here is the info St Ignatius Loyola, 1095 Church Rd, Orrtanna, PA 17353.
    All those hours exploring the great outdoors made me more resilient and confident

    kurteous beat me to it (work got in the way). Get there early, it is small.

    2Q... Any chance you'll be bringing your caldera cone making jig? I really want to make a two piece cone and that would make it soooo easy. I'll bring my own flashing, scissors, and hole punch (I think you told me that I need a paper clip also to hold the two cones together?). Thanks either way.

    Sounds great because I didnt get to make one at the fall MAHHA. Our session got cut short when we started looking for WV's lost dog.

    What width flashing do I need for a 2 piece set up? I have some 6" at home if that will work.

    Thanks, Brian P.

    I've never made/used/seen one in person. Are these cones really helpful for the stove?
