6/28/2025 - Michigan Chickenstock

[Chickin Fairy]

I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to make it this year. I would love to though.

I hope you can make it this year, it was really special to meet you and your wife a couple of years ago. I love hearing about your birds.

I really, really hope I can go! Transportation is just such an issue especially with my extended family being here for the summer. They only get a rental car sometimes and my aunt is always using our only car to go shopping just about every day when she's here and she doesn't tell anyone when she has plans and I don't know if we're going to have anything planned for around that time (probably not). I know I discussed possibly getting a ride from one of you. I'm going to try so hard to make it and I'll still give updates if I find anything out! It's so frustrating having a family that doesn't communicate

I'm coming, and can bring cucumber salad, like last year. Anything else? No problem.

There are outlets at the pavilion for crockpots and there are grills. Someone is doing meatballs, and there are a few sides and deserts. You can make what you like, just anything that won't spoil quickly.

Hi Tomte - maybe we could meet you somewhere in east GR, and we could ride together.

We'll see! I'll message you within the next few weeks when I have a better idea of whether any family things will be going on that day. Thank you for the offer!

Okay, I can bring a dessert (not sure what yet). As for equipment I can bring plates. Forget about what I said about the raffle tickets, just saw that someone is already bringing those lol
