Thank you all for your kind offers. Actually we do own a tent, but it’s not a Barth LOL so unfortunately at this time we are not planning to attend.
Tom and Lorainne have joined the exclusive group which I will call "Barthless" Maybe Barthless in Michigan or Barthless in Tennessee or Barthless wherever you are.

Jack & Joannie FoxI have been following all the chatter about this GTG , but I haven't seen anything about a Rally fee or camping fees or maybe a schedule of events or activities. This is our first GTG and we are in the dark. We have done vintage rally's for years and most have a fee schedule. If any emails have been sent we have not received any. Any help would be helpful, be genital we are newbees. Thanks Jack

StinkyDaddyHey Jack,
Welcome to Barth GTG's, we don't have fees. (No name tags either)
You pay for your site with the campground, but no rally fee.
I don't think the campground is sure where they're putting us, so we don't know the cost yet. Richard said they would know soon.

Well we do actually have a fee. We demand payment in friendship. We have a 100% payback of all fees with our friendship in return.
Larry-David is the only one I can remember wearing his name on his shirt.... Ask at the GTG it is an interesting story....
We are always easy to get along with....

I'll check my server we might be able to stream some of it. I plan to bring my drone (yes I am a licensed drone pilot and a registered camera drone) and might be able to catch all our attendees and coaches. I have streamed from the drone many times at various aircraft events and fly-ins, as well as some Barthmobile events in the past. We'll see.

Very cool!
It's available at this link.
Rusty GTG Shirts I also made a design with just the Barth script on the front. I'll bring the shirts to the GTG or I can mail them to you if you're not joining us.

Looks like a match made in heaven. Doug's Idea and Ed has the knowledge and the equipment to make that idea a reality.
We'd have to make sure we are not having the pole dancing competition going on at the time of the live feed.....

KevinI do not like the idea and I am out.
See more information here!05-14-2019, 09:56 PM
Richard_MuiseEd,
If you get me the raw footage, we can make dvd's for every one. Or if thats too old fashioned, we could just stream it. I plan to take a bunch of pictures so that we have a record of this event.
BTW, has anyone been in contact with the Barth family or employees???

Pictures, Video and recordings all have there place. My family, all my family is asked if they feel the need to use a picture with me in to not post my name but if they do it's not the end of the world. I normally don't post pictures when I am out mainly because i am to busy. Also normally internet is crap at most camps.
My memory needs all the help it can get. Over the winter I got much joy out of watching Kenny sing from the GTG last year.
Dont tweet, snapchat or any of that stuff. I have a Facebook account but only look at occasionally. Our family has a private to share medical and the like.
We need to respect all our members.
