- Double D - You make it all run smooth as silk. Your dedication and friendship towards YGP is special and accounts for so much of our success. Personally, you have been a great and true friend to me and my entire family. Thanks for all your help, your patience and willingness to go above and beyond.
- Andrew & Meredith - As "newbies" to Spring Outing, you two have proven yourselves more than worthy of following in the footsteps of Moose, Bobby and Salty Dog. Your excitement for the program shows and it's that excitement that stokes the passion of the dads and kids that attend Spring Outing. Thanks for your gusto, demeanor and dedication.
- LBC volunteers - You guys are the rocks that support everything that our program stands for. Your willingness to give up your weekends to work archery, rifles, canoes, etc. and general hustle to help the YGP staff is unmatched. While there are a lot of families that helped, I have to give a special "How-How!" and thanks to the Princes, Cartrettes, Scotts, Mays & Kruegers for multiple weekends and all their hard work.
- Moose - What can I say about Moose? He's a tireless workhorse of a man that's dedicated to our dads and kids, patient with all who seek him out no matter how mundane a request or question and a rock star among children. He's a friend to all and an attribute to the program's overall success. Thanks to Matt for his friendship, patience, guidance and steering sense of calm.
- My wife, Sarah - She has given me up for 5 weekends, shared me with the Nation and spent many hours helping at a couple of Spring Outings herself. She's been willing to assist without question, shown generosity with her time and been supportive of me and the boys. From the COSTCO runs to the piles of sharks teeth she finds in the washing machine, she's done so much at home that it makes it easier to leave for the weekends. She has been wonderful in so many ways. I hope she is as proud of me as I am of her, for her dedication to the program and us. Thanks to Flipping Bird for making the Spring Outing season a great one.
This has truly been an awesome time and my experience at camp those five weekends are very special to me. From meeting new dads and kids each weekend to eating five Saturday nights of fried chicken, green beans and mashed potatoes to hearing "The Tinker" multiple times - there's nothing better than a Spring Outing... except for five Spring Outings, of course.
How-How!
