| After giving it up the last two years, I'm happy to organize it again. No raffle, no cover, no pressure. Just a fun social event, where some beer will be consumed, and some baits and lies will be swapped! One rule that we have to abide by. No carry-ins of alcohol, or food. If you do, you will be asked to leave. Hotel rule. Let's not jeopardize the location. Thanks. Maybe the Extreme One won't have to snowplow and will make an appearance! And T Diddy too!

I feel it's a little disappointing that last year the Operation Muskie Peeps asked me to take it over running the swap and I let them so they could make it a bigger fund raising event for them. Then this year they decide to not organize it and don't bother to let me know.
Regardless, I look forward to being there and seeing everyone again!
The room does cost some money to have, I think there should be a $5 per table charge. Shep should not have to pay for this out of his pocket.
Anybody want to contribute towards a half barrel? |

| Working with Gina at the Hotel to try to get a special per glass price on one brand of beer. I suggested Leinies. Hopefully, they step up.

| Hey Joe,
We didn't intend to rule anyone out. You were my first thought to call when we at Operation Muskie decided not to carry on with the Bait swap, but then I mentioned it to Doug to see if he knew of any group that could use it as a fund raiser which put me in contact with Muskies Inc. Milwaukee Chapter. I'm just glad that the swap is being taken over by capable hands and its all for the good.
Look forward to seeing you guys at the show.

Location: New Berlin,Wisconsin,53151 | Hey Shep,
If you need some help just send me an email. I'll try to pry Sanks off the couch and get him there. It will be nice to have it low key again, not that the money raised wasn't well worth the effort. Hopefully we can get a donor for the beer even though I don't drink it the crew does like anything free.

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | I am looking forward to this swap. Always come home with some great deals on used baits.
Meeting with the boys for food is always a great time and yummy. Good base for the swap and party after in the bar.
Also please remember that our muskie brothers will again be playing after the swap in the bar. Big O and Dennis will be rockin the house with Magnum 4 like last year. Stop by the swap and slide over to the bar after to hang out with the muskie brothers and sisters.
With some luck it will not snow that weekend and I can enjoy the Expo, Swap meet and Magnum 4.
See ya at the show...... |

Location: New Berlin,Wisconsin,53151 | If you're going to the show the exit for 84th st is tore up. You need to get off on 76th go South to Greenfield then West to 84th and North to the entrance. I think you can go Bluemound to 84th and go South to the entrance. It's pretty tore up around there with the start of the Zoo interchange project.
