If Kevin is the one who  runs Elm Hall:

Kevin, please make some extra brats.... I will beg, borrow or steal some...(or will trade some bamboo plants for some ).

They are the best brats on the planet...

That would be Brian and Pappys doing's. They whip them up from venison a few nights prior to the meal. If your real nice, Brian just might give you a pack to take home!

Kevin measures all the ingredients and weighs the meat,he keeps us all straight,all I do is mash it all together. It has taken them several years and lot of trial and error to get them just like they like them,and yes they are great. :) :) I go to help for the free beer. ;) ;D ;D

I hear Paulsemp is going to make it up this year.


We have the first official work day for the shoot June 25th. Gotta sort out all the targets and get them ready to go. Im not a part of all of it, but I know it takes and incredible effort and huge amount of physical work to make it all go down smooth as it has for 23 years prior. Massive amounts of corn on the cob, brats and such are made each year. Enough to feed hundreds and hundreds of people. If your within 4-6 hours of the club you owe it to yourself to make it once, you'll be back every year after. The club grounds are huge. If your a private type person you can always find a quiet camp site regardless of the amount of folks around.

I was planning on starving myself till the evening feast, but since Paul's there I'd might as well throw in an order for corned beef and 2 eggs over medium for breakfast. I like to sleep in a bit so go ahead and warm the skillet on others orders and wake me when it's ready around 10 or so.   >:D

Joking aside I hope you do get the chance to make the shoot. Last year was my first time and it is great!
