Well the cats out of the bag. Ron Greene and I will be riding up from the great Southwest. It has been to long since I have seen many of you. It has been way to long since I have been to the Tipp. It's been way to long since Ron took a long road trip. We'll see if the old guy still has it?
Our cabin is reserved. We missed last year but will not the big 10 year anniversary. See you then.

The Chapter 266 encampment will be there as the norm - to partake in all the great happening that only happen at the TIP - Mark has promised you ain't seen nothing yet.... Were ready to party..
Some of us plan to be there on Wed to give a hand at whatever needs done as in the past.
Mark, the crew from Minnesota will be there again this year. Should be as fun as always.
Glad you guys are all chiming in for this years Tipp, all stars are invited to this shin dig.The only thing I ask is you chime in here or email me direct with a head count so the food can be purchased up front. Yeah I know they are many stars coming this year. chapters from canada, minnesota, michigan , ohio, and illinois have chimed in. Individual Stars from all over. The most we have ever had for this was 200 stars and typically over 100 every year. This event is filled with bonfires,cooking , horseshoes,music,cooking,laughs, crazy hats and no schedules, we just fly by the seat of our pants and enjoy the times and create the memories. Look for more updates soon. My email is
starro@m33access.com if you have any questions or inquires. And yes bud the grass will be cut, lol.
Update to the tipp of the mitters coming this year, we've been working the phones and setting this puppy up this year, looking like our cook Sam and Roy will be back this year to do a pig roast saturday night, also saturday evening were gonna have karioke for at least 1 hour , maybe longer if some stars want to step up to the plate, remember there is no scheduales at the Tipp , we just wing it. literally , yes chicken wings on friday night too, Banjo band barry is heading our way for friday night, working on a bunch more say tuned, this years bash is gonna be the bestest.
Been getting lots of calls and emails , keep them coming as the list keeps growing for all of you who make the tipp what it is.

Sounds great Jack, still getting calls everyday with more and more stars coming . Everyone that knows me have heard my stories about ghosts, spirits, aliens and bigfoot, I have been in touch with the spirit world and I do have a committment that Bigfoot aka as Sasquatch will be making an appearance this year, so be aware if your walking the paths at the chalet this year, could be interesting !!
