Some serious Fall Tigeowners reunion at Lake Mead Talk

[G-MONEY]

It is time for the Early Spring Reunion. The weather is the same and the water is still cold but football is not in session! I will help with a Spring Tige Fling on the Colorado or Mead .

I'm down

[SPBFAN]

It would be fun to do the river. Those that own wave runner could bring those and we could have a blast. Lake Mead would be great again. This year I am stepping back and if Matt wants to sponsor the event I am all for that and will support him sponsoring the event. This way I can come and enjoy it with out any stress of all the other stuff. My Friendships with everyone are way more important than any type of business dealings. I would love to come to Mead for sure. However I will have to catch a ride from TALL on his huge boat and I will tow the wave runners up to Powell for some toys to ride other than wake boards, tubes, or ski's.

I'm in for Mead. I agree with others. It's the people and boating that makes the event. The rest is just extra.

Coach, how early are you talking about in Spring?
I've never been to LM before mid June. The water is still a little chilly. November Cold Water Reunion was too cold as well. I think Utah schools are out Fri 10/16/09 and Mon 10/19/09. I have been in mid Oct. and has been fantastic!

I have room in havasu if we want a spring reunion there. Let's pick a date

[Dan and Christy]

Jim, is Havasu as windy as Mead in the spring?

I know it would be a long haul for some of you but why not have the old Tige Reunion back in the Delta like it was when Tige had their manufacturing plant in CA?

Okay, just a thought..

Because this is a dealer sponsored (Matt/The Boat Shop in the Vegas NV area) event and that's not his dealer territory.

A delta event should fall to the Tige dealer in that area

makes sense. Not trying to take away from anyone or any shop.

[chpthril]

The proposed Powell event is looking like a multi-dealer/Tige corp event, and would, I guess, be like the factory on that you are referring to in the Delta.

Has the makings to be a great event, I just hope it's not at the expense of other events. Some peeps will attend the Mead, some will attend the Powell, some will attend both, that should be the goal of those involved in planning both

Very hit or miss. Last year was the windiest I remember for april May in a long time. The previous years have been decent with little wind. Mead is definately better with the coves beaches etc

I hate Mead in the Spring. It seems the wind is always strong. The only time I took on a foot of water was at Mead in the Spring, so I am biased. 5 foot whitecaps scare me.

I think it could easily be done without any sort of sponsorship or corporate support, but it is kind of nice to have some sort of 'anchor' for the event. Even if that was something smaller, it would be nice to have an anchor event of some sort.

I also think that the two most important ingredients are the people and boats.

I think if its a two day thing the river/Havasu would be a good idea as there are lots of lodging options. The bad thing with this location are the crowds.

I thought Mead in late Sept. was a dream. I could have stayed there till I could board anymore.

I am happy with whatever route is taken.

Sorry that it took me a while to get back on this. Talked with Matt at The Boat Shop. He will hold a Lake Mead event for his customers regardless. He likes holding it with Tigeowners - the more, the merrier. But, even if Tigeowners weren't involved, he would still host his dealer event as he has for 12 or so years.

It seems that there are a number of members interested, so my is to go ahead and still have the Lake Mead reunion. I would be willing to help out with planning/prep/logistics/whatever.

[talltigeguy]

Sounds awesome, Dingle. I guess the first item on the agenda is to set a date and stick with it. Some come from far away and if we switch the date, it fouls things up for sure. It might be tough to know what date is best so early, but the first thing to do is talk to Matt. The end of September is the best time weather wise, IMHO.
