I thought you were going to do that for the winner of the Trash Fish pot!

[PReaux]

My mistake . . . highest placing pilgrim in the trash pot . . . got altzimers! . . . lol

[CAMP CANARD]

Got my sticker in the mail today. I will display it proudly at the OSC tournament this weekend. Thanks PReaux !!
Maybe I can get the OSC staff to get a side pot going for us Pilgrims

Send me the file and I will have a flag made. I will run it up the pole at the camp every weekend. It can be seen form the East side if you look hard enough. I hear they have superior vision over there as well

BTW- The rules committee came together in fine fashion. Congrats

[PReaux]

I love it when a plan comes together . . . thanks

[PReaux]

think about it . . . liking a pilgrim is more popular than liking that Brewce on facebook . . .
remember, you decide if you are a pilgrim . . . you can be a closet pilgrim if you want to . . . east, west, north, south . . . it don't matter . . . just have fun . . .

[CAMP CANARD]

Probably a lot of closet Pilgrims out there I would suspect.
With a little incentive, we might be able to get them to come out.
Maybe a closed Door BLPA meeting night of SC Captains meeting would be the ticket?
Chicken or TrophyTroutman have not responded ? Maybe an intervention is in order.

[PReaux]

They probably looking at poll results . . . lol

[CAMP CANARD]

Should we implement " Pilgrim Cash" for displaying membership stickers ?
I'll donate a $25 Spicer's gift certificate to the cause.
If this don't get em to come out, nothing will. YOU KNOW HOW WE ARE per no artificial rule !
