John, in a bidding war on that kid, you will have competition. My 2 Grandsons are too young to do much with, yet, and they just moved farther away. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

ya know Miles....
it hasn't been mentioned before...
We all talk about some of the great folks we get to meet via these campfire get2gethers.... but no one has mentioned...
of all the kids that are brought to these shindigs, I have yet to meet ONE that is "not being brought up right" by his parents or grandparents...
in today's world and the standards ( or lack thereof) that many kids are raised in... everyone of these boys, and girls are just like the way we were when we were kids...
they know how to have fun, are pretty darn respectful overall, and have a decent set of values...
any time I have told one of these kids to do something, its always "yes Sir"....instead of the usual " you're not my dad, you can't tell me what to do!"
just a point I thought should be brought up... Kudos to the kids, and Kudos to the Campfire Members who are raising the next generation to represent everything Good about this nation....

Kent - haven't seen a list, but we may have a couple more than being anticipated. Would it be helpful to publish a list and seek confirmations?

It will be Donelle, Jace and me for sure. Jace wants to bring a friend, but the boy spent the last week shooting at the state 4-H shotgun championship. He is frantically baling hay this week, to honor a commitment to his uncle. If it doesn't rain, there may be one more young teenager. I wouldn't worry about it except, at that age they eat about as much as two of us senior citizens.

So four here.

Sure wish I could be at this one. I'm going to miss you guys. As I mentioned previously, take lots of pics.
Thomas, after missing the last couple of gatherings, you are going to make it and I won't. Dang the luck.

Maddy will be in camp in the evenings.

We know that Blue and Miles are enroute, as well as Randy and his son, and Seafire and wife are enroute.
Am pretty sure that Brian is coming
