Me + 2 others = 3 more please. Looking forward to it.

Put me down for 2, myself and my brother in law (not a member, but a veteran of 20 trips with me - 17 Quetico and 3 BWCA). It will be interesting to put faces with on line names. Will we have name tags?

This is great…. 42 so far.

Nojobro for 1

Looks like I'll be attending my 1st ever Canoecopia!

Got it, Huey. We're up to 48 now.

This will be my first CanoeCopia miss in about 14 years. I am visiting my family so won’t make it. Wish you all the best! Sorry to miss.

I will tentatively plan to be there. Hope to make it and will update.

Please add me as 1 attending.

OK - I'll come. One.

surely we don't need to remind people to take photos, take names and post post post!!!!

Can’t make it. Hopefully next year.

All late signer-uppers are duly noted. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Drawing for prizes.

I'm just sayin'.............

I've been watching for more photos too. KBA1, we might have the same shirt - at least my elbow looks the same as yours.

Looking forward to more pics and stories about the Canoecopia bwca.com dinner gathering.

Not that I was necessarily watching for them...but, I didn't see many cameras/phones snapping pictures while I was there. And, that was the only one I took.

Uncharacteristic for me--I didn't take any pictures either. I asked someone to take one picture of Spartan1 and me in our sweatshirts (made by our granddaughter), and otherwise just didn't think to go around taking pictures this time. Sorry.

The only other photos I took were at Jerry's concerts, and I posted some of them on that thread.

TuscaroraBorealis: "Not that I was necessarily watching for them...but, I didn't see many cameras/phones snapping pictures while I was there. And, that was the only one I took."

As I understand it, there is plenty of surveillance footage from the security cameras.

I think picture shortage may have something to do with so many people sitting in booths and others at the table and not an easy view to everyone.

I know as we sat at a table, I didn't really have a good view of the crowd to snap pictures of.
