Saturday October 12th

Rob and Jan Spalding’s home at
9995 Bentgrass Ave NE, Hartville

We are looking forward to hosting another fun Oktoberfest party!
Our plans for this year are much the same as last year.

For those interested in riding,
there will be 2 rides starting at our house:

Map 947
24 mile ride at 2:00
16 mile ride at 2:30

Dinner will start at 4:00

We will have Italian sausage and brats,
and ask that members bring a covered dish to share.
Water, soft drinks (and maybe some beer…) will be provided,
but bring your favorite libation if you prefer.

For our usual embarrassing non-bike riding skills activity, I am considering two options.
We’ll have either a cornhole or a 9-hole disc golf tournament this year.
I’ll post what the decision is prior to the 12th.

If we have rain, we’ll move the party inside, same as last year.
In that case, please plan to arrive around 3:30.
Our game after dinner will once again be euchre.

Weather permitting, we’ll have a campfire at sundown to end what should be a wonderful day.
(S’mores!) Bring a lawn chair to be sure that you have a seat!

We hope that you will join us! - Rob and Janice
