Jan 12-14, 2007 -- Chemeketan Cabin Weekend
Steve Dougherty ~ Feb 2, 2007
The third annual MLK Cabin Weekend had a record number of 24 participants. Nearly a foot of recent snow blanketed the ground and adorned the cabin in wonderful winter dress. Janet McDonald and Dave Carter assisted cabin host Steve Dougherty in opening the cabin and preparing for guests. Dave Carter ferried guests from the highway to the cabin in his 4-wheel drive pickup. A radio was left at the highway for requesting assistance. The cabin was kept warm and toasty despite unusually low temperatures outside. Saturday evening we were opening the rear entrance as the temperature in the cabin rose to 79 degrees. The recent snow and the cold weather combined for great skiing and snowshoeing opportunities near the cabin. Matthew Phillips and Tawny Gates were both crowned "cabin cooks" for baking deserts in the old-fashioned wood-burning cook stove. Matthew baked and decorated a chocolate cake while Tawny made an apple crisp for the second year in a row. The two served up their creations alamode to the appreciative crowd. Special thanks to Lon Johnson and Keith Hill for resupplying the cabin's wood supply. Several new faces joined us this year and plan to repeat again next year. Members were Steve Dougherty (host), Vincent Dunn, Ryan Good, Robyn Smith, Tim Smith, Tawny Gates, Linda Bedard, Keith Hill, Scott Phillips, Matthew Phillips, Tammy Phillips, David Carter, Blanka Truneckova, Janet MacDonald, Joanne DeMay, Richard Cooper, Nancy Rockwell, Cynde Alt, Mike Koyama, Lon Johnson, Vickie Crawford, and Allan King. Guests were Shelley Dougherty and Nolan Good.
