If I were planning the Ball this year it would feature Inflatable Jump Toys, a merry go round, a petting zoo with two types of monkeys and clowns that tie ballon animals, maybe a hot dog stand that serves Hebrew Nationals. I would ditch the Kegs and Late night Music for a Sing A Long with Frozen and slip n slides. So I guess it is a good thing I have nothing to do with it this year.

although most kayakers would find a way to have a good time with the above mentioned venue... unfortunately 3 year olds would not have a good time waiting for loads of drunk dudes flipping in the bounce house or guys tearing up the slip n slide with a kayak, moms would be upset when the rowdy crowds started getting the petting zoo animals wasted off shots of fireball and someone would certainly get the hot dog stand confused and think we were going to roast some Israelites.

Come to think of it, I could go either way... I would just leave the kids at home.

Wilder comes every year. He's asleep by the time the festivities start. Never been a problem. Where I go, the boy goes. One year there were even some other kids there. It might that the presence of children would calm things down a little, which would be okay with me. Everybody there has always been very respectful of children. Some people there even like kids.

I can understand, though, why James would not want to bring HIS kids, as it may prevent HIM from gettin' rowdy, hehe. And nobody wants that: We need James to be in form or people will stop coming to the Ball!

If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.

Oh, I could, but since I already hit the "clear form" button twice, I won't. The elephant in the room is concealed within Nutty P's post:

Hmm. Sounds like the voice of experience...
I gotta go now. There's a new version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde I gotta check out on Netflix...




Whatever the case, I'm sure if we can just keep that Jimminy Creek-It guy away from the PA system, the kids will be alright ;)

that was all real informative guys but if the ball is gonna happin there needs to be a date then people who know they can make it will help out in little ways they can. it would be nice to come up with a way to make this yearly reunion a little more simpler and sustainable so its not such a sh*t show at the planning stage every year. i dont think the bridge with phil has been burnt and if we could pay him in advance for the following year at the end of every ball we would be set. a family cooper fest would be sick but the ball is the ball
