Re: Ohio Fun Meet in June - all invited

I'll be able to make it! I'll be bringing my family and camping for the
weekend at the park. This will be my 7 year old daughter's first
unicycle event. She has never ridden with anyone but me, it'll be
great to get her with some other riders, especially younger kids.

I assume more info will be posted as the date gets closer. Do I need to
register in advance?

Thanks to all those involved in organizing this event.

This sounds like a lot of fun. I talked to my three daughters about it
this morning and they all said, "Let's Go!!!"

It's only a 10 hour drive 😄, and my neice is graduation from High
School in Cleveland, OH that weekend. Maybe we can make it a two
function trip. --chirokid--

On June 5th, once again, Wood One Wheelers is sponsoring this Mini-Meet
at Maumee Bay in Ohio. This is a terrific opportunity to meet with
unicyclists from several states and two different countries.

Maumee State Park web site includes a map:

http://www.dnr.state.oh.us/parks/parks/maumeebay.htm

It will be held in the parking area off the beach at Maumee Bay State
Park. Take Curtice Road off State Route #2 (Main Park Entrance); bear to
the left at the fork; past the Park Office and to the right at the
second fork. Begins at 9:30 a.m. and will last until approximately 5:00.
Bring a dish to pass or a donation - hot dogs will be served along with
the pot luck for lunch.

Along with your unicycles bring helmet, gloves, kneepad, etc. for
racing. Don't forget your camera.

I have just recently heard that this event is shine only. The rain
location did not work out. Any questions Contact Jan Layne at
jlayne1 (at) juno.com

Anyone not going can come by my house for great bargins. We're having
our 29th annual block sale that day.

Weather report is looking good for Saturday! I'm especailly excited
because my wife and 7year old daughter will be with me for this meet.
Neither have been to a uni meet and this will be my daughter's first
time with other kids on a uni. Maybe my wife will get the bug and
decide to try uni for the first time.

I have been to one Muni event and one trials competition. It's so much
fun to get together with other unicyclists!

How many people are going to this meet? I'm especially interested in
knowing about kids and their ages, but am curious about the overall
number also.

Anyone been to one of these and know approximately how many might
show?

What types of events will held?

Can you find the hidden message?

Bill,
I haven't attend in several years so I'm not sure if they've changed the
format. There were races of all lengths and some informal freestyle
events. I know that there are an increasing number of trials and muni
riders that go each year so there may be some of that even if its not
part of the organized event. Your best bet for more detail is to contact
Jan Layne.

RTUC has cancelled our regular Saturday practice to attend, there may be
15 (we have kids of all ages) or more riders from Michigan, 17 went last
year from Toronto. WOW will be there of course, add at least another 20?
Sorry I couldn't get more specific.

A more recent message indicated that there may be a rain location in
Bowling Green. Although the weather report is good right now, if you are
planning to go, contact Jan and she can put you on the list to be
notified in the case of rain. E-mailing her at the last minute may not
work as she and her husband sometimes leave early (perhaps the night
before) for the park.

Have fun,
Kathy

Kathy

Thanks for additional info. The weather forecast looks great, shouldn't
be a weather concern.

I've emailed Jan a couple times and have gotten no response, that's why
I came back to a post here for additional info.

Sorry to hear you won't be making it to the event. 🙁 Hope your
day's activities go well.

Bill
