Bear Quest 5-U want to go?
« on: May 27, 2011, 10:46:00 PM »
Well I was approached at work today. I was asked if I could give up one of my vacations esp. this one in June (Bear Quest 5)..We are in the middle of a critical nursing shortage and folks are being asked to hold off on some summer vacations. Anyway I could still go for 3 nights of it if I keep it but I am offering it up to someone that can go for the full week. The hospital is going to reimburse me for any deposit I may loose. They also guaranteed me that If I did give this one up that my vaca. in October would be safe. I have plans to hunt with two of my sons and don't really want to risk that one...Anyway if anyone wants it I'll give them $600 towards the hunt. Dates are June 11-18.....And if you know any nurses that want a job and want to live in NH or VT we are hiring!

Fred is a very generous guy.  :notworthy:  I genuinely do not deserve an opportunity like this. Tradgang is lucky to have members like him.

I can't even begin to tell ya'all how excited I am for the chance to go on this hunt! It is likely a once in a lifetime sort of deal for me. I will be sure to post pics and maybe a video if possible.

Time will move VERY slowly for the next two weeks. I can't wait to get there.  :campfire:

I'm really glad it worked out for BOTH of you.  It's a great hunt, and Tom does an amazing job with all the details and preparation.

I'm also glad you made the deal, because I've been figuring every possible angle of how to make the details work.  So... you even solved a problem for me!  That's a good thing.

Have a wonderful time!
