Bumping this back to the top. Does anyone have any head count figures on how many members attended the Woodgas Meetup last year? I am hoping we can more then double it this year. The International over seas guests have more than doubled for this year. Breaking records already, Cheers to Koen, JO, and Kristijan.
If you are still on the fence on going, it’s time to jump off and make a decision to go to Argos.
You will not be disappointed.
I counted 27 signed up members, please sign up to help the organizers out on getting everything ready for us all. Let them know if you are camp out and need power hookup.

Which means it’s only 3 weeks and 3 days until we’re up in the air, crossing the pond :smile:
I haven’t heard from Kristijan in a while. I suspect he’s busy preparing farm chores for his wife :smile:

Good Morning ALL YOU WOODGASSERS!!! :smiley:
This is Ronda Lemler and I’m trying to get all the FOOD lists around. I usually provide the meat for all the meals. This is one of the biggest parts of the planning because, I know the way to a mans heart is a good meal. I am asking anyone who thinks they are going to come PLEASE sign up soon. I take a count of people from this list when ordering the meat and buying the essentials for the meals. So if you are planning to come sign up soon.
Thanks, Ronda L.

Bryan, Please come if you can. Meeting driveonwood forum members in person is a great experience and motivation. This is the friendliest and most welcoming group I can think of. And we are all interested in the same types of things. As some forum members already know and others suspect, I myself am more of an enthusiast than a builder at this time of my life. My main contribution is helping to organize this event. Bring your imagination, notepad, camera, etc. and enjoy the meet-up! :grinning:

By all means you are welcom, and dont forget your seat belt when Wayne Keith gives rides in his wood gas truck one of the days camping, we usually drive around a couple different loops in town areas. Small town.

Thanks guys. Is there an itinerary or schedule for Argos 2019 or is it a kind of free-for-all, do whatever you want kind of event?

Bryan, We have a mass “flaring” of gasifiers at dusk on Friday evening. We have an informal “parade” of gasified vehicles on Saturday afternoon. We might organize a presentation and show and tell as attendees desire. Mostly informal, and casual!

I might add the food is great and there is plenty of things going on all the time. Friday night music around the fire.

Sad to announce, but i will not be able to make it this time…

Health issues are worse then expected, will overcome them, but grounded / banned from travel/sitting still longer then 1 hour at the time.

DVT confirmed (Deep Vain Trombose) at left leg, and the nerv blockage neck, left side…

Good news is, i have to take some rest, no lifting, getting massage… have to loose some weight, take medicines… and a lot of supervised excercise…

My wish is for a lot of happiness over there and a lot of pictures to see from the event, posted here on DOW…
