Scaling/Crawling 2/16 at the Riverbanks Zoo

[Ajppsc]

Hey guys/gals, just wanted everyone to know if they were interested myself and some of the guys are going back to the zoo this weekend. We had a great time last weekend and hope to see some of the familiar faces from last weekends outing. Along with that some new faces that have been posting on here looking for some buddies. Please let me know if you are interested and I look forward to seeing everyone. Depending upon how many people will be available to show we will meet at the Homewood suites at 9am. Thanks

Greetings crawlers, Art referred me to this site to keep up on Columbia/Lexington excursions. I'm very interested in participating in the Riverbanks Zoo trail run this Saturday...if I'm reading correctly you all start at 9AM? Also, about how late do you all run till?

I'll be the guy with the Wraith wrapped in Air Force camouflage and hopefully bringing my 8 year old (if appropriate) in a wraith axled monster truck/crawler.

Hope to meet all of you.

Jim

Dang it, my sis in law and my newborn niece is coming down this weekend. Would love to join but I can't wait to see them..

I think I am going to sit this one out as I am just getting out of an exercise this week and Sunday going back up to NC for snowboarding. So I plan on sleeping in as long as humanly possible on Saturday. Hope you all have fun out there.

By the bye I am still patiently waiting for pictures from the last one.

I would love to come but i still need to get my buggy finished up. And find some batts that will fit in it simewhere. How do yall get in the zoo? Do you pay? Front or back entrance?

Saturdays are just no good for me these days ladies. My son has Kung Fu at 9 am, and then my daughter has gymnastics at noon, so I'm booked for the first half of the day. Sorry, I'd love to come out and play.

@looney... no pay, in fact, no notice that we are there ideally. The Zoo hasn't exactly been open-armed and cheery about us playing on the riverbanks. Most of us cross over the railroad tracks behind some of the local businesses on Candi Lane and basically backdoor the Zoo to the banks. I believe Art has asked everyone to meet at the hotel parking lot on Greystone and then carpool over. It's where I've suggested previously in the past as well. Keeps the spotlight off us from Zoo staff. Hope it helps.

Hope you girls have fun.

But to answer your question, Midland prefers the back entrance.

That's hilarious! Midland it's too bad you won't be able to make it but hopefully sometime soon along with the rest of you. Also thanks a lot for the post regarding the zoo, midland summed it up the best but if you have any other questions I would be glad to help. Jim we would more then welcome your son we are open to all crawlers out there. Also jim to answer your other question ussually out by noon but there has been longer outings. I look forward to a fun day at the zoo tomorrow. Take care and have a great weekend to those who won't be able to attend. Thanks again for posting
