5th Annual Rally

The 5th Annual Wardens on Wheels rally will take place on August 12 - 14, 2011 at Lake Metigoshe State Park, ND and The Game Warden Museum located in The International Peace Gardens.  We are hoping for a record turn out this year.  As in years past, we will meet on Friday night for supper.  Details will be worked out at a later date.  Saturday will include the meeting at The Game Warden Museum, a poker run, supper and socializing.  Last year we cooked smokies over the fire and finished off with Smores!  A block of rooms have been booked at The Quilt Inn (701) 263-6500.  People wishing to stay there will need to call and reserve their room.  We will also have the North Star tent camping area for our use again as well.  Alternative lodging options can be found in The Peace Gardens Web site, http://www.peacegarden.com/ 
To date we have raised $9,000.00 for the Museum expansion and operation.  I have sent out the 2011 pledge sheet to past riders. Any new riders wishing for more info or to gather pledges can contact me.   rob.grainger@gov.sk.ca

There had been some discussion last year about getting together as a group and attending Sturgis.  Due to the difficulty in determining who would be attending and arranging accomodations, this will not be happening.  Riders wishing to attend Sturgis before our rally will be on their own.  If there are some riders that do attend Sturgis and plan on continuing to the Wardens on Wheels rally, Bill Schaller has offered his place in Killdeer, ND as a half way stop over point on Thursday night.  Riders could then continue on to Lake Metigoshe as a group.  Contact me for more info if you are interested in this.
