It's great to hear we'll have a good number of OSOers for the run.
Chris, I believe the run starts at 9:45-10:00am from Haddam Meadows.
For those launching from Old Saybrook, I'd recommend being on the water by 9:00am the latest. It's a 30-40 min ride to Haddam Meadow from Old Saybrook.
Personally, I'll be launching from our marina in Chester at 9-9:15am. If I get on the water early enough, I'll come south some to meet the group coming north from Old Saybrook.
If not I'll be looking for you all by the Castle and Ferry crossing.

Hi Chris,
If you're thinking Midway Marina in Haddam, you may as well just go to Haddam Meadows.
The marina in Chester I keep my boat at does not have the best ramp, but the marina right next door has a great ramp,
Hays Haven.
If anyone would rather launch in Chester, I'll post the directions.

If our boat is all sorted out and I can convince my Mom to not stay up here for parent's weekend since I just saw them 2 weeks in a row, we may be in. It was a blast last year and it seems like this years turn out is going to be even better.
