02-02-06 (Wabasha Caves)

***Update
What an awesome time we all had! Nothing like doing some dancing in some caves where gansters use to hang out in!

Hey all, going to the cities to go dancing again. If enough new people want to come up we can go to the Tapestry for some of the best group leasons you can get or we can go to one of the coolest places to dance in MN, the Wabasha caves. For those that have never been to the Caves its quite an experience. I will let people know by 3:00 on Thursday where we are going. Please either respond to this site or call me at 382.6072. We will be leaving no later then 6:00 from Mankato so if you need a ride from anywhere other then Mankato also let us know.

Also, I am moving the Winnipeg event down so these events move up so they are easier to see what's happening.

WINNIPEG BABY (Feb 10th - Feb 12th)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---Here is the latest information (01-31-06)
Hello Travellers!

I've attached the car settings at the end of this email. There was
one change to give Car 4 a chance to leave sooner, and that's swapping
John Z and Shannon. This way Shannon can maybe sleep longer and Car 4
can leave sooner -- Car 4 can decide and shoot us an email.

To those of you who missed prior emails, I apologize, but welcome to
the list! The travel plan is as follows:
Cars 1, 2, 4, 5(, 6) will meet at Jenny Caudill's house at 4pm and
depart as soon as humanly possible
Car 3 will go whenever they please and perhaps meet us in Fargo or
Fergus Falls or something
Cars 1, 2, 3, 4(, 6) will depart Winnipeg around 10am Monday Car 5 will depart Sunday afternoon

Chelsea will return with car 5 leaving 1 seat available for the return.

-----
Jenny's:
11663 97th Pl
Maple Grove, MN

My reccommendation to the cars is to load your car before going to
Jenny's so that jenny doesn't have 18 cars in her driveway. Also,
please start with full tanks of gas.

-----
Housing:

I sent an email to follow up on what Shannon told us last night.
I'll forward the response I get.

-----
Clothing:

Friday After Hours is Theme of the TriPleXXX logo -- So, think Neon Pink Saturday After Hours is Panajama Night Sunday Afternoon is the Hockey Game Sunday After Hours is dance/pants optional night

Plan to bring winter gear! 14 day forecast says it'll be teens
Fahrenheit on Feb 10.

Its still not too late to sign up. It is around $35US dollars after the exchange rate. Here is the site http://www.umswing.com/triplex/registration.htm.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

******************************************************************************
01-16-05
REGISTER ASAP to make sure you get lodging!!!!! Register here: http://www.umswing.com/triplex/registration.htm.
******************************************************************************
I will be registering on the 12th of January. There are people up in the cities that I might try to hook up with. If anyone wants me to hook them up call me before Friday or go to Minnesotalindy.com and write to their forum.
*****

Just to let everyone know that it is free to register to the Winnipeg exchange in Febuary if you sign up before Jan 20th. They also state that there is still people that will let us stay with them for free also, so the only expenses would be food and gas and a t-shirt =). Plus it looks like some hockey is going to take place. How can you beat that!!!! I don't think you can. The MN Lindy link is on the sidebar and I will post the Lindy Exchange link in the near future. I would like to register and figure out rides no later then Jan. 11th. That's 3 days after most of us get back from Colorado which should give you enough time (hopefully). The dates for the exchange are Feb 10th - Feb 12th.

Also again, if you think you would add to this site enough send me your email address and I will add you as an admin so you can add and edit posts.

*UPDATE* Matching up will not matter much here. Because of work I will not be able leave until noon on Friday.

Jazz at Sugar Room (01/13/06)

***Update it is in January, not Febuary***

Christine Rosholt will be playing at the Sugar Room in Mankato on Friday, January 13, 2006 from 9:00 pm to 12:00 am with Wolverines pianist Rick Carlson. Vocalist Maud Hixson will be along to sing a few numbers too. I know there is not much room to dance at the Sugar Room, but I thought you might like to come out for some good music!

Hope Christine doesn't mind that I stole what she added in my comments =). It sounds pretty fun to me so I'll probably go to it. Let me know if anyone doesn't know where the Sugar Room is if they want to go and I can let you know. I've been there a couple times and it's a pretty fun place. The only down side is that it is pretty small.
