A little scarecrow inspiration

This upcoming weekend is our Scarecrow building contest and I thought I would share some ideas that I came across. The rules are pretty vague as you can see from the following pictures there are many variations on what makes a scarecrow.

Something traditional...

Or not so traditional

Definitely unique

The regular pool and hot tubs will still be open this weekend and next weekend. This upcoming weekend looks like it may be our last outdoor movie night of the season. Blankets may be required as the cool fall evenings move in. After this we will move to the indoor movies for the last few weekends.

The plans and work is being completed on the Mud Bog area. We now have some bleachers set up to get a bird’s eye view of the action. The Mud bog weekend will kick off on the Friday evening with a Pig Roast then the racing will begin at 1pm on Saturday. We still have a few campsites left.

Mud Bog 2013

The details have been finalized for the 3rd Annual Rubber Ducky Mud Bog. Team Mud Monkeys have organized a great day of racing.  It will be an entertaining weekend of racing and other miscellaneous fun. Even if you are not an ATV rider (like myself) it is still interesting to watch the competition. Then head off to the pool for the rest of the day.  The date has been set for September 28, 2013.

MUD BOG
Registration starts at 9:00 am CLOSES AT NOON. Please show up early and get your registration in on time! This will help us to properly organize and make the event run smoothly!

Racing begins at 1:00 pm SHARP

Spectators $5, kids 12 & under are free, this fee is good for the whole resort and you can make use of all amenities including the pool!!!

There will be vendor displays onsite with the chance to test drive new atv’s.

Helmets mandatory, All riders must sign a waiver.

Entry Fee will be $25 per class 100% payout 1st, 2nd, 3rd and trophies will be awarded.

The pit is 250 feet long horseshoe style, flat bottom, filled with water to the perfect depth!! It will be wide enough to accommodate two UTV’s racing side by side, shallow enough for the stock bikes, and deep enough for the modified bikes!

Stock and modified classes will use the same horse shoe pit this year. There will be a fairly shallow amount of water for the stock bikes, but enough to make it fun! We will have an intermission once the stock bikes are finished and fill up the pits for the modified bikes. This will give everybody enough time to change tires and race in modified too, if they want. During intermission we are planning on some activities that involve the crowd. You will have to come and watch to find out what!!!

Where’s Ducky?

Can you spot the Duck in this picture?

wheres duckyAs much as we would like to take the credit and say this was planned – we can’t. It simply happened as an accident or simply an act of fate. It was pointed out to us last summer what the shape resembled, but until we saw the aerial shot we didn’t realize just how perfect it was.

I must give a huge thanks to Ron from Hepburn Enterprises for providing us with the amazing aerial shots.
