Keep the reminders coming, Pat. I've already talked to my wife and she's up for it, as long as nothing trips us up.

AWESOME! It will be good to see both of you again! There's a fine line between keeping people informed and being a pest. I will certainly keep posting any new information as it comes available. Matt has sent me local vacation rental info, and as the time gets closer I'll start posting some of that. Probably before too long, since the longer you wait to book lodging at a vacation resort the fewer options are left.

The only possible problem we may have on the weekend prior to the concert would be my wife's 50th class reunion. We do not know when that will be scheduled and if it falls on that weekend it will be my wife's call. But we should be there for the concert.

I've met Pat and Matt (hey, that rhymes) in person, as well as Derryl Gabel virtually (I have Skyped with him a couple of times to help solve a problem he was having). It would be cool to meet many of the other forum regulars.

Yes, I've met Pat and John and thoroughly enjoyed it! It would be my great honor to share my cabin and all things Lake George with this group.
Pat, thanks so much for coordinating. I need to do some more groundwork up here.

Ok, it's time to start talking more about the (drum roll....)
July 2017 BIAB forum get-together at Lake George NY... where Matt Finley and his all-star band will be performing!!
(for more details, scroll up and read the previous messages.)
Like most resort areas, Lake George accommodations tend to get booked well in advance. For that reason, if you are planning to attend this event, I strongly suggest that you make reservations ASAP.
Matt or I will post some links with contact information for places to stay... but you can also use the internet to find a rental house, motel, campground or whatever meets your needs.
The main takeaway you should get from this message is the urgency to book now. We will roll our eyes later if you wait then tell us you didn't come because you couldn't find a vacancy. ;-)

Thanks, Pat, for coordinating this.
One of the reasons my band anchors the summer concert series at this particular time is that the end of July is the best weekend of the year, weather-wise, at Lake George. It's always the most busy week of the season here.

Would Rutland, VT be the closest airport?...well big enough to fly into commercially?

Oh no, use Albany International in Albany NY. One hour south and a straight shot up Interstate 87 (the Northway).
If you can access a smaller regional airport, Glens Falls NY. under 30 minutes south.
Rutland looks close as the crow flies, but the round-about roads would take 90 minutes.

When are others planning to come to Lake George? Saturday, Sunday or Monday and when are you leaving? I want to get there when most of you do and leave sometimes after. The wife and I are making a longer vacation trip.

When are others planning to come to Lake George? Saturday, Sunday or Monday and when are you leaving? I want to get there when most of you do and leave sometimes after. The wife and I are making a longer vacation trip. Good question, Mario! Hard to speak for anybody else, since I have no way of knowing what kind of plans they might make or what availability they'll find when they start calling for accommodations. I can say that Matt has reserved a community center for the BIAB crowd to meet in on the evenings leading up to his concert. Here's his last email to me on the matter: Pat, I was able to put a hold on the building for Sun. through Tues. July 23 - 25. They didn't need any money up front because it's me, but by spring I will need to be more sure. Thanks. I would hope most people will be in Lake George at least for those 3 days. That's when I plan to be there. The 25th will be Matt's concert. Depending on the arrangements people find, I'd guess departure days will vary. Some places only rent full weeks, but I'm hoping to find a motel that I can rent for those 3 days only. If others are staying longer and we're all having the time of our lives, I'll pay to stay longer. Does that answer your question?

here are links to some places where you can secure accommodations: http://www.bluewatermanor.com/(I think this is pretty close to where Matt is located) when I asked about campgrounds, Matt replied as follows: http://www.visitlakegeorge.com/camping/public-campgroundsmore to come, but if you search online for LAKE GEORGE NY RENTALS you'll get more hits than I could post in a year...

Pat, I will see what my friend at the Hampton can do, and especially if he will rent for less than a week. Do you have a feel for how many might be staying?
Same for Blue Water Manor. Yes, that's the only motel on the same bay. I made my first money as a pro there at age 12, playing with the college staff band.

Can we get a tentative shout-out from everybody who is considering attending? Matt could probably use some rough numbers when asking around for special rates.
So far we've heard that the following people are considering it:
Pat Marr
Mario & Wife
John Ford & Wife
JazzManDan
HearToLearn
Charlie Fogle & Wife
JoAnne Cooper
Danny Campo & Wife
PghboeMike (If I swing by and pick him up)
Looking through the thread, that's everybody who has expressed a tentative interest in the idea. SOme may drop out as the time gets closer, others might join in.. hard to tell.
Anybody else? Any updates from the list of maybes?
oh, remember the community center that Matt reserved? We can jam there! So bring yo' gear! ;-)
