John Chestnut Sr. Park

Another Beautiful Day in Paradise. We did the "through the Community" route to Lake Tarpon and then out to the Trail, to the end and back. The weather was just about perfect and we pretty much skated in a group through the community. Only when we got to the Trail did the speeders break loose. Jackie A, Willi and Mats B joined us again after an absence. Debbie, Roger and Brian K joined us again. Welcome all. We had 3 bicyclists. Dee and Jackie indicated we did about 13.5 miles. Almost everyone in the regular group had become Sponsors so we didn't get any new Sponsors today.

We Brunched at Eve's Family Restaurant as planned. With just a little notice, Eve's opened up a spare room and nicely accommodated us. Unfortunately their rating slipped a little as Jeff and Dee only gave their Brunch an 8.5. Maybe if Rob had been with us, they would have tried harder.

Bladers/bicyclers are still signing up for the 2009 Pinellas Trail Skate. We are now up to 69 people. The riders on the Great EsSkate supplied bus to Tarpon Springs and Taylor Park are gathering momentum as many people are now signing on.
