AT Reunion!! 3-6AUG2023 Lake Cumberland, KY
 
A few of us are going to try to get a AT gathering together this coming summer. We are thinking either KY Lake or Lake Cumberland if anyone else would be interested. I figured now would be a good time to try to start planning so we can see what dates and location works best for everyone. I will make a post on FB as well for the ones who aren't on OSO. We are thinking possibly arriving on a Thursday afternoon and using Friday and Saturday being on the water. We have 2 37's, 2 33's and 2 32's lined up for either place we decide.

All Active Thunders are welcome to join in. I'm sure we'll have a few other brands there as well hanging out. I just listed the sizes of the ones that are already in on getting together this coming summer.

Sounds fun

boatfreak 11-16-2022 05:34 PM

We would definitely join in as long as it is mid to late summer. With Cumberland being our home lake I would love to see it there but we can travel.

Honestly I think it would be more fun there due to all the different marina's as well as having more choices of lodging on the water. I am thinking maybe late July early august time frame. I am making a post tomorrow on the FB page to see what everyone thinks on there as well.

boatfreak 11-16-2022 07:41 PM

That would be perfect timing for this poor ol dirt farmer.

Sounds like we have a good starting point. How bout we start with a date of the first weekend of August. We would probably come up on the Thursday Aug 3rd and plan on staying until Sunday the 6th. I'm sure there would be at least 4 or 5 boats coming that day.

boatfreak 11-16-2022 09:44 PM

Sounds good and I'm guessing your number is low.

bencini231 11-16-2022 11:19 PM

Actually just 6 of us that came up with this idea recently, so we decided to start passing the idea along to try to get as many boats as we can to come for a good time on the water.

mbccenter 11-17-2022 07:57 AM

Sturgis is that time just a FYI I would rather be on the water.

Sydwayz 11-17-2022 08:11 AM

Neither Clark nor I own ATs anymore, but I may be able to get him to bring his MTI up just to hang out on the outskirts.

Maybe Pat can bring up one of his new 22s as well.

harsin 11-17-2022 08:41 AM

Sounds like a good time ,count me in

slboatdrinks 11-20-2022 06:01 PM

LMAOF. This time I'll be joining you...

boatfreak 11-20-2022 06:08 PM

Looking forward to it buddy.:cool:

bencini231 11-21-2022 01:02 PM

We've got plenty of interest on the FB site as well and looking like a pretty good amount of people wanting to come to Cumberland to get together. Now we just have to start the count down until the first weekend of August 2023. Once it gets closer I can check on having some shirts made if anyone might be interested.

Come on down in whatever you want to bring and tell pat to come up this way for some fresh water boating...

Bencini,

Cumberland is my home lake. If this goes down on Cumberland, we may try and join in with our non-AT. Any idea where the hook-up might happen?

Thanks. Brad.

Sounds good and I will for sure keep you posted. I would say 76 Falls will be one place for sure and probably decide on the other later.

boatfreak 01-22-2023 04:21 PM

I don't know if it will be a problem or not with rooms but Saturday the 5th is the annual raftup which draws a big crowd. If it doesn't create a problem getting rooms it is something fun to see.

BoatFreak,

I'd say it will be an issue. There are quite a few boats that show for the raft-up. We've never participated, but I hear it's a good time.

We've possibly got room at our house, but it's in Burnside, at the other end of the lake.

Where do you call home on the lake?

Thanks. Brad.

We are at state dock.

Yeah, I forgot all about the raft up weekend. I'm good with staying with that weekend or we could plan for another. If we keep that weekend I'm sure that we will book our rooms soon just to beat all the raft up people. We always stay at LC state park in a cabin or at lure lodge. I'll keep it open to for others to comment on what they think.

harsin 01-27-2023 03:10 PM

How about the weekend before? The michigan city races are Aug. 4th-7th.

Harsin, Bencini,

As a non-AT guy in the conversation, this is probably not a bad idea.

Thanks. Brad.

I know we can't make it the weekend before, due to a poker run we are attending in TN. I'm open to all suggestions from everyone. I guess we could turn Lake Cumberland Poker Run weekend in to the AT poker run if everyone would attend..lol

boatfreak 01-28-2023 03:47 PM

Bencini were you thinking of checking rooms, either availability or a block rate? We will be on a houseboat there so it doesn't matter to me but if everyone wants to do this we probably need to try to put something together so at least everyone knows the dates.

Yeah, I'm going to give the lodge a call on Monday to see if they can give a discount on a block of rooms or something along those lines.

bencini231 02-11-2023 09:26 AM

OK, the date has been decided on for August 3rd-6th. Myself and a few others are coming in on Thursday the 3rd to get checked in and unpacked, as well as we may take a ride to get something to eat on the water. We will be there Friday and Saturday then checking out to head home on Sunday. I talked to Lure Lodge in Lake Cumberland State Park and they have offered to give us a room discount as well as block off rooms for us. I would like to get a rough idea of who all is for sure coming, as well as all that is seriouly interested. I am planning on calling later next week on having a block of at least 20 rooms saved unless we need more than that. I think this will be a fun time to hang out and just meet everyone in person to see all the AT's and how each has changed the look of them through the years. Also we are considering doing some shirts or something for the event if anyone would be interested. We will wait till closer to time to get that head count for that. I also have made a post on the AT page on FB, as well. Feel free to message me or reply on here or FB and i will get the rooms blocked off next week. Also once they are blocked off you can call Lure Lodge and tell the you want a room for the Active Thunder Boats Reunion. Here's the room info that was sent to me:

2 Queen bed lodge room rates for Thursday, August 3rd -Sunday August 6th 2023 will be $134.96 at a discounted rate. We currently have 31 available. King or Indoor Pool area lodge rooms with a mini fridge and microwave will be $164.95 for the same dates. We currently have 4 Kings and 11 Pool area rooms available on those dates also.

bencini231 02-24-2023 03:48 AM

The rooms have been blocked off for us @ Lure Lodge (270) 343-3111 and anyone wanting to reserve a room can use the group code 3180 for the Active Thunder Reunion. There are 30 rooms in total blocked off for us and if those get filled the discount will still apply for any other available rooms.

BL6 03-22-2023 04:30 PM

Reserved for AT run!

I haven't checked yet, but was planning on calling tomorrow to see how many have reserved a room so far. I'm sure we will have a few that will be last minute decisions, as well.

boatfreak 06-07-2023 07:32 PM

Ok inquiring minds want to know..... who's coming? We will probably get down there on Thursday and load up on Mon.
