Any one interested in getting in on this info sharing please input. we need to get this figured out.
We should start putting together a plan. That mean vehicle cost, gas, food, est.
facts:
one way
12hr drive time
640 miles
-The best route is over the mackinaw bridge.
-looked into takeing the boat over the water down by Grand Rapids it is way not cost efficient.
-There is no direct train that makes it worth useing.
-car pool seems to me to be the best way. both by cost and practicality.
Car & costs:
45 Gal. of gas one way
based off $4.00 a Gal.
$180 one way
so if everyone put in $75 for gas that would get 5 people there and back.
(Im rounding up a little because of ware on a vehicle that will be over loaded.)
-I'm willing to drive. (Also for those that are going early I am willing and able)
-using my car I could fit 4 other people and there stuff if we pack well.
-Loaded i would be getting about 15 miles to the gallon.
-my car is smoke free
-----Things we need to know-----
--when do we need to leave to get there
(To:Chris & Dave when do you need to leave to make it to the meeting?)
--do people want to stop and eat or bring food and drive through it.?
--who is interested?
--I was thinking for my car
Dave, Chris, Mark, Tory and my self
but PLEASE post if you are interested don't want anyone left out because they could not find a ride. lets make this work and run smoothly!!!
