Face it..volunteering or watching IMWI is tough. It's a long day and you run the risk of bonking if you don't manage your nutrition.

The best way to fuel yourself is to carb load the night prior to the race. Therefore, Amyjotris and mFirstnet911 are hosting the 3rd annual IMWI volunteer/spectator pasta feed and campfire on Saturday evening.

Once again, we are camping at Lake farm park which is about 8 minutes from the swim start. We will provide spaghetti, garlic bread, beer and a camp fire. You'll need to bring anything else you want to eat and a campfire chair.

Git-r-done and his wife will be camping  one site over. We'll try not to keep them awake

This is open to anyone who wants to hang out, eat, or just have a beer with a great group of people.

Please add your name to this thread if you are planning to stop by.  We don't want to run out of food or beer.

Campground is located at:

Well it's about time you get this message sent out. 

Yep, as stated, Sprinkles (don't ask...well, okay, ask....her) and I will be present. 

Just let me know what we can contribute to IMOOgiving.

We are looking forward seeing/meeting anyone that stops by!

I will try to make it. Monica can't as she has a friend in town. But I still might drive up alone!

I love the name IMOOgiving  Very creative, Shad.  Clint and I are in the process of setting up sitters for the big weekend.  I will say a tentative yes for us but that is subject to change based on availability of said sitter(s).  We will DEFINATELY be there for Sunday cheering, teasing and taunting.

I'd like to stop by if that's cool! I'm volunteering all day Saturday and don't really know anyone else up there.

Also, does anyone know of a place I could pitch my tent? It looks like the reservations are all booked for sites, but I don't take up much room and am really quiet.. It looks like the campsites are all full. It'd be neater to camp than to stay at the notel-motel I have reserved that weekend (and I would split the site-cost)...

If no one can accommodate, then I can offer my back yard in Marshall (20 miles away).

We will try to fit you on the campsite.  I have a tent on my site already and I believe we are allowed 2 per site.  Let me check with some others that we are camping with and see if we can't squeeze you in somewhere.

If he's as big as DJDavey, then he'll probably fit quite nicely in your tent's internal pocket I bet.
