    Hello to all Hybrid Owners in the Milwaukee, Madison, and Chicago areas!
    Come join us for a day of fun and hybrid camaraderie!

    Who: All hybrid owners.
    What: Annual Hybrid Gathering at Miller Park. Brewers Vs. the SF Giants
    When: Sunday, June 28. 1:05 pm game.
    Gather beginning at 8:30 am- 10:00 am
    Tailgating 10:15 - 12:30pm
    Game time 1:05 pm
    Why: Because it's a good time!
    Cost: $15 per baseball game ticket. $10 per car for parking
    50 Tickets available.

    The basics:
    - We'll gather at Culver's parking lot
    - We'll drive over to Miller Park and have a tailgate party
    - We'll watch the game
    - We'll head home

    Tickets this year the tickets are for the seats only and are $15 each.
    They are Terrace Reserved tickets are in the upper seats in farthest right field.
    This should keep us out of the blazing sun. (Whew!)
    It's bobble head day so it'll probably be a sellout crowd.

    Here are the details so far:
    We'll begin to gather at 8:30am at Kathy Spilger's Culvers located at Hwy 100:

    We'll hang out there, do some VTP's, some driver training and talk among ourselves or the general public until about 10:00 am.

    We'll then parade together down Highway 100 to Bluemound Road, then Bluemound to the ballpark and park in the "Giants" parking area, north of the stadium Parking is $10 cash at the gate:

    Tailgating will continue until about 12:30pm, then proceed into Miller Park to find out seats and enjoy the game. After the game, we'll return to our parking area and then talk some more until we get tired and people can depart as needed.

    We have purchased a block of 50 tickets for our group. These tickets have gone fast in the past so please reserve your tickets ASAP by responding to this post (via private message), and then sending payment. We may be able to reserve more in a nearby area if we run short.

    We will have the tickets for you in hand at the Culver's gathering spot or at the tailgate party at the stadium parking lot.

    If you prefer to have the tickets mailed directly to you please send in your payment so that it reaches us by June 19. Also include a self addressed stamped envelope with your payment.

    Make checks payable to: Eric Powers 612 John Adams St, Sauk City, WI. 53583.

    Each party that's coming to the Gathering will be on their own for food and beverages. You also will want to bring a small grill, snacks, chairs etc. Usually we'll have extra space on most grills so you don't have to go out and buy one. Dress appropriately for the weather. There will probably be some 10x10 canopies which may come in handy especially if it's raining or sunny and hot.

    Thanks to everyone who has helped with prior Hybrid Gatherings and thanks to the MiHG, MHG and CPG members for all your support in local hybrid events.

    You may contact me at 608-729-4082 with any questions.
    We look forward to having a great time with all Sunday, June 28. See you at Culvers!
