I plan on attending as long as nothing comes up between now and then.

depending on when i move back to lincoln for school I'll be there, sounds like a fun time and a chance to meet fellow forum members...

**Catfishsteve** · 07-31-2008, 11:06 PM

Wow, that is way too cool, Harold!!

**Chad** · 08-01-2008, 09:26 AM

Harold,

This is great!!!
NEFGA is much more than the southeastern part of the state. It was great chatting with you about that the other day. Thanks for helping to expand the community out west!

PS - Making this a sticky soon so look for it at the top of the page...

Is there another shelter nearby so Slim and I won't have to sit next to you and George Foreman?

**Chad** · 08-01-2008, 05:04 PM

August 16 is a go for both stores - Cabela's Kearney and La Vista.
More to come in terms of time and details, but think early afternoon...

Good call, OBG. We can hang out by the swimming hole and check out the, uh scenery.

**Chad** · 08-01-2008, 05:24 PM

I'm not sure which is more creepy, guys...

Isn't it interesting, dc, how many Omahans think "western Nebraska" begins somewhere around Waterloo?

Our neighbor across the street just told SWMBO last night that he was excited about driving to Colorado next week because he'd never been west of York!

Sandbilly, our "friends" from "Omahole" (sorry, Storm Hockey term embedded in my system) consider anything EAST of "Stinkin' Lincoln" (ditto's) as "out West"!

I doubt that Chad has a clue where HOOKER COUNTY is- or for that matter, MY families home county of SHERIDAN! But with your help and the other members "out west", we have the opportunity here to "edumacate" them!

Note: This post was intended to be "in fun" but IF I have "triggered" an "itch", I apologize in advance. My PM is available for any/all personal attacks...

Halen · 08-02-2008, 03:56 PM

I hope to make it up for the event. Keep us posted on details and if you need help with anything.

Chris

Harold · 08-02-2008, 08:05 PM

Some information that may encourage more Members... We will attempt to secure a Kearney "Trolley" for the day, to assist the wives/girlfriends (or both

) and kids to visit other attractions, or (I will DENY I said this) the Mall, whatever. But it will take more than just a handfull of Members to justify!

Depending on the time of Cabela's Event, the Trolley could be used (again, if available) to take us to and from Cottonmill (West of Kearney) to the Cabela's Retail Store (East end of Kearney).

Event activities and MORE STUFF to follow as details are secured!

I don't see how you are going to be able to get all that arranged, Harold, and still make it to your Possum Lodge meeting with Uncle Red. You'd better start asking Slimdog for help now.

No answer yet....I think their interweb out west is on a party line.

P.S. -- OBG...Reading some of cousin Harold's posts in your absence, I could have sworn you 2 were brothers separated at birth.
