The Spring Fling @ Green 2019 will be held at the picnic shelter at Holmes Bend Marina on May 4th, 2019.

As per usual, I will be there May 3rd - 5th in one of the cabins above the picnic shelter. I am currently waiting on the COE to mail me the paperwork to sign & return for the permit needed to rent the shelter for that date.

Ms. Kelly at the marina has told me that there are no major events going on at the marina or cabins during that weekend, so cabins should be available for those wanting to stay there over the weekend. And just so everyone thinking about renting their cabins, or one of the rooms in the Suites Building, knows ahead of time ... there is a 2 night stay minimum for those accommodations. They also have Kamper Kabins, which are basic sleeping rooms only, with a shared bathhouse. There is no minimum stay requirement for the Kamper Kabins.

You can see what all the Kamper Kabins & other cabins and amenities are on this link : Holmesbend Resort and Marina Kamper Kabins - Cabins for Rent

When I get the permit for the shelter "in hand" for that date, then I will post the Volunteer thread and the event timeline thread so that everyone can make plans accordingly.

And as has already been mentioned ... yes, that date is the same day of the KY Derby. I'm sorry if that means that some of us cannot make it because of prior commitments or plans related to the Derby (like my friends Carl & Lisa), but that date is final.

Anyone wishing to "camp" (tent or RV), there is a campground on the road into Holmes Bend Marina, but it is not owned/run by the Marina ... so you will have to contact them : Holmes Bend Campground Green River Lake

Anyone wishing to donate prizes to be given away by raffle drawing can PM me with the particulars or post the information on the Volunteer thread, when it's posted.

Any other questions or concerns can be addressed on this thread, or via PM to me.
