Big Squeeze ‘09
Dear Friends,
Better late than never, the invitation is finally up on the website.
http://www.bigsqueeze.com
You will note that there are some big changes this year. We are moving the Big
Squeeze to Coldbrook in Barre,
ma. You can get directions and other information at:

For
those of you coming west on Route 2, click on this link:

This route will take you from Rt.2 in Templeton through Williamsville to Barre. I recommend it because it is more rural, the road is
better and the scenery should be spectacular.
Diane & I live at Coldbrook during the summer in
the Chalet shown on the right in the invitation. This link will get a map of Coldbrook:

We have leased the field across from (West of) the golf
course. This includes the use of the bathroom, shower & laundry facilities
behind (East of) the swimming pools. Contained fires are allowed as is a reasonable
bonfire. There is no electricity or water in the field. We will make do with
generators and water in the truck as usual. Dogs are allowed, but if unleashed,
they must stay in the field. I have agreed that we will respect leash laws
outside the leased area. Anyone wanting a full hookup can get one for $20/night
in the campground area.
The Work Party is the weekend of October 2nd. We will be setting up
the tents, stoves, sinks, kitchen, water, cider press etc., all of which will
come from Luke’s farm in trailers & trucks on Friday evening & Saturday
morning. We will need portable drills etc., but don’t need chain saws or brush
hogs. The place comes ready mowed. Any one wishing to stay Sunday night &
beyond may do so at $20/night.registered with the campground.
We have the field for Friday, Saturday & Sunday nights of Oct. 9,10 & 11. We will
have to tear down and pack up the trailers on Monday.
Coldbrook is a more public venue than the farm. We
have to separate the Squeeze from the campers & the general public at the
bar. We are doing that by name so please take the time to RSVP to:
big.squeeze@hotmail.com
with the names of everyone in
your party. It is even more important here at Coldbrook
.
Here’s hoping you enjoy the new venue.
See you at the Big Squeeze ’09.
David & Diane
