I think I might be able to make it this year. Missed last year.

Another idea for an activity would be to have a protest and "take over" eastern Washington and declare it an independent Country. Seems to work for folks on the west side of the State.

Wags: yea, that would be a worthwhile activity.
Maybe we ought to schedule that for Friday eve. As soon as all members get on this side, we could watch the Darrington contingent do a demo of how to fall timber. Soon as they dropped enough trees across both lanes of Stevens pass sos a Prious couldnt wiggle through, we could all head in in time for the potluck.

Well, for Gods sake don't let them fall any at the Fairgrounds. There is little enough shade as it is. :rolleyes:

I think the trees at the fairgrounds arent big enough to be sporting for that crew. But just to be on the safe side, Humptulips, you may want to chain yourself to your favorite shade tree.

Well, it looks like the Rendezvous is in trouble. I talked to the Fairgrounds Manager earlier this week. In order for them to open the Fairgrounds up to us Chelan County has to move to Phase 4 and we have not even made it to Phase 2 yet.
About 6 weeks to go so there is still time but there has to be rapid improvement. I have to know we will be able to use the facility by the middle of July so if we cancel we have time to get the word out.
We have some options if we have to cancel. The Fairgrounds have a lot of cancellations so I may try to reschedule to a later date possibly as late as the start of October.
The other option is maybe cancel the Rendezvous but hold the Board of Directors meeting. We need to get to Phase 3 for that.
I know none of this is good for you scheduling stuff but the best I can do.
I will let you know how things develop. Probably be mid to late July before I know for sure.

Maybe a unsanctioned camp out at some property and if some people selling trapping supplies that they don’t “ need “ show up might work ?

I agree. Pretty much no one actually cares here. Inslee is just mad at us cause we are in the middle of a lawsuit with him. Cases are almost non existent at the moment here.

Wont happen.
Inslee is useing his position of power to try to get us to listen to his nonsense.
First of all he is a bumbleing bully nazi wanna be.
Secondly he is trying to spank us here because we are Republican, and Chelan, Douglas, and Okanogan counties are trying to sue him right now. He will continue to push to ruin us til we cowtow to him.
Inslee is the enemy of my State.

We are going to have to cancel the WSTA Rendezvous as scheduled.
I have reserved the Chelan County Fairgrounds  for the 2nd 3rd and 4th of October. As you can well guess that is dependent on the lockdown level. Because of that we are going to make a decision in September as to what kind of an event we hold if any.
We are sending out a postcard to let everyone know of the cancellation and we'll send out another in September to let you know if we are going through with the October event.
