Ann Arbor Meet Up
« on: July 28, 2016, 07:53:36 PM »
Time for an Ann Arbor meet up.

The meet up will be at the Cascades on Saturday August 6 at 3 PM.  Should go until after dinner.

This is fairly mustachian, as:

1) There is a bicycle path through the cascades.

2) Inner tubing through the cascades is the most fun you can have for free in Ann Arbor.  (Mountain biking a close second).

I will bring a canopy and a fold out table.   If you want a chair, I would bring your own.

People should feel free to bring a salad or something that doesn't need refrigeration.

Also,feel free to bring your kids.  My kids (16, 14 and 10) all love the cascades.  You will most likely want to bring your own inner tube, as they are rented for $10 and that is about their price at Dunhams.

Recommended parking is at the lot between Canal Street and Broadway.

You'll cross Broadway, go past the power station and cross the pedestrian bridge until you see the canopy.

If you are not a swimmer, but a biker, one of my favorite bike paths is here.

Looking forward to meeting the mustachians in town and from the area.

This sounds right up my alley but sadly I'll be working that day.

Sounds awesome, and thanks so much for remembering me and inviting me!  I'll be up in the boundary waters that weekend, but I'm looking forward to connecting with some A2 mustachians real soon.

Thank you BikeGuy. Let me see how things go for my schedule. I've never been to the Cascades before. Sounds interesting.

Count me in! I'll have my bike for sure and potentially an inner tube (don't yet have one).

Ditching the canopy and fold out table.  Was thinking attendance would be higher.

Will have my blue chair with the sunshade that pivots up. It is blue.

I'm at the last drop before the water goes under the bridge.
