Default UP freeride in the fall?

how many people would be interested in a freeride in marquette sometime in september or so? i'm kinda trying to arrange something, but it would be nice if i knew how many people would be interested. i'm kinda trying to get sponsors for free swag, and mebbe the local grocery stores for a cookout type thing.

sound off!

Dude I would so be down for that, but I live in south michigan.

But next summer I am planning a 500 mile skateboard odyssey to help pay for college and give money to charity that goes from New Buffalo up the east coast to Sault Ste. Marie, so maybe we could skate a bit on the tail end of my trip.

okay, sweet! i'm trying to nail down a solid date...gotta try to avoid homecomings at NMU, MTU, LSSU, and maybe bay de noc. then, after getting the date, come sponsors...i like the idea of getting the local skate shops involved, and maybe some of the bigger companies from SF (abec11 anyone?)
