Dear those who will be in Oregon in August 2016, (all others can ignore
this and later messages with Subject of Travel and shared rides.)
Refers to Stove Summit, Stove Camp, Char Production Gathering, and USBI
conference.
Bruce (message below) raises the question about ride sharing. This is a
way for people to assist each other, so we need good communications:
1. TWO main categories: Initial arrival and At
events/between events
2. The easy one is "At and between events". My experience is that
there are usually multiple cars with drivers willing to help others.
You meet these people at the events and connections happen easily. For
the major shift (which is after the 3 events at Cottage Grove) to go to
Corvallis for the USBI conference, there should be plenty of cars
leaving sometime after 4 PM Saturday and with arrival by Monday morning
for USBI pre-conference events. Exactly when each vehicle is moving is
not known. But people with cars (and possibly a spare seat or two)
include:
Paul Anderson
James Schoner
Paul Taylor
Tom Miles
Hugh McLaughlin
Kelpie Wilson
Norm Baker
Probably 3 or more others. (please add your names if you could help
with transport)
Who rides with whom and when will be worked out/finalized on Saturday.
NOTE: What people do on Sunday 21 August is wide open. I suspect
that people will match up according to their interests.
3. The "Initial Arrival" issue is more complicated because of so many
different dates, times, places of arrival into Oregon. Eugene Oregon
airport is maybe 20 minutes from Cottage Grove. If you are registering
for one or more of the 3 events in Cottage Grove, contact the organizers
of each event, with information about times of arrival.
Arrival at Portland airport is a bit further away. But ride
sharing should be possible.
BEST if those who NEED transportation assistance tell us all when you
are arriving where.
4. JUST IN CASE it might help some, note that some of us are driving
long distances (starting outside of Oregon) and perhaps shared driving
time and fuel costs might match someone's interests.
A. Paul Anderson is driving from central Illinois on 7 or 8 August
with arrival in Cottage Grove on Wed. 10 August.
B. James Schoner is driving from central Arizona
C. Norm Baker is coming from Seattle, but might have a full vehicle
already.
D. Several others (unknown)
