3rd Annual Hocking Hills Run-planning thread!

Whats going on everyone?

Just wanted to get some ideas out there for this year's event.

Here is what has always happened for those new to this.

Meeting at 9am in Pickerington, Cracker Barrell
Leaving at 10am towards hocking hills.
Arrive at old mans cave around 11-1130am.
Cook out and walking short tour of Old mans cave.
Roll out around 1pm
Tackle Rt 68 and Rt 555 with spirit!
Arrive in Zanesville around 5pm.
Last one home is a rotten egg drive west on I70 towards columbus!

Now this year I was thinking
Meeting at 9am in Pickerington, Cracker Barrell
Leaving at 10am towards hocking hills.
Arrive at Zip Line Tour (Right next to the Valero Gas Station) around 11-1130am.
Roll out around 1pm towards the beginning of rt 555, stopping for lunch at the Amish Restaurant in Logan, and then drive all of Rt 555 from close to the Ohio River running northeast towards Zanesville!
Arrive in Zanesville around 5pm.
Last one home is a rotten egg drive west on I70 towards columbus!

Date is set!
October 2nd
Rain date is October 9th



What do you think?

I would prefer this event to stay on a Sunday as it seems as though more people can make it out.

Sundays work best for me as well. If we are thinking about doing that zipline tour, looks like they fill up pretty quickly and we should finalize a date and reserve some spots for the zipline....

9/18 or 25th....

My vote is for 10/9 as we do not have our kids that weekend. I'm sure we could probably make arrangements though if it was one of the other weekends.
