Re: [pct-l] RUCK INFO



AT-L .... it will be put up for a vote as soon as the tee shirt silliness 
is over.
The Ruck started there so I figure they are the ones to decide.
Several people e-ed me with the suggestion after the plea for repairs to 
The Place
was circulated.  And if you are wondering why they e-ed me, it's probably
cause it was my sillyassed <grin> idea to try and raise a little money at 
the Ruck
to give back to the Trail.  The other we's involved are John O, Navigator and
DaRedhead, and Sloetoe who all volunteered to help.

So sorry PCT 'ers....most of you probably don't know what all this is about.
But if you are near enough Pa, and you wanna come and hang out with a
bunch of hikers for a couple days, check out
http://friends.backcountry.net/ruck/index.html
Since it's an east coast thang <g> we are mostly AT hikers, but there are those
like Sly who have hiked on the PCT and a couple who are right now 28 days
away from thruing the CDT.  Good people, good food....good time.
But beware....'me and the rest of the we's' will try and offer you some 
interesting
ways to contribute to the Ruckfund......all of which will either go to the ATC,
who have guaranteed it will be dedicated to AT maintenance or to the AT hostel
called The Place in Damascas for much needed repairs.

BTW....if you want a vote in the matter, join PCT-L's sister list AT-L at
