not gonna be calling anyone a "clown" but do agree scheduling pond skimming on april 4 is early. april 18 or 25 would be much better. perhaps they think no one will be here then. as a way of comparison, here's the event calendar from spring 1999:

April 10-11, 1999 Bear Mountain Mogul Challenge
April 17-18, 1999 Spring Loaded at Bear
April 24-25, 1999 Tray Olympics
May 1, 1999 Slalom
May 2, 1999 Pond Skimming
May 8-9, 1999 Sunshine Daydream
May 15-16, 1999 Huckfest
May 29-31, 1999 Triathalon and Rage Weekend
June 1, 1999 slalom

also miss steve's brainchild, the sunshine daydream.

You're making me think "clown" is being far too generous.

Consistently, the last few years, the Rite of Spring has had issues synching calendars with the grip of old man winter. :sad:
