Sadly, another brave Warrior has been taken from his Family, Friends, fellow Troops, and the state of Wisconsin. My condolences to those whose hearts this young man touched.

The funeral for Shaun Novak of two Rivers Wisconsin will be held this Saturday ,Sep. 9th. at St. Peter the Fisherman Church, 3218 Tannery Road, Two Rivers Wisconsin. The visitation starts at 8:30 and the service is at 10:30.Please be prepared for a two hour flag line.After the service begins, there will be a half dozen of us in the processional and the rest will break and line at the cemetery. Please be advised there may be rain.As of now , I have not decided where we will meet before hand. I am waiting for local contacts to advise. The High school at 7:45 is the tentative meeting place, unless I get a better suggestion(Gary?). I wanted this info out ASAP, so be prepared for one more itinerary notice. Thanks, Mac.

Crow,
42 is a good way, as is 310.  42 will bring you through Manitowoc and then up the lakeshore.  Nice scenic ride (or drive in your case).  310, however will bring you into town a little closer to the church we are going to.  Just make sure you follow the signs for 310, and then once you cross the river, bear left at the BP station.  You will then go up past the fire station and soon come to the church.

Travelers coming from the north might want to consider Hwy 147 as that brings you into town right near the church.

I plan to go up to Two Rivers today after work and scout out a meeting place.  The high school is on the other side of town from the church.  I will see if there is anything closer.

Sorry so late in doing this.  I am taking night classes and they started this week.  They take up absolutely ALL of my time.

I will post this afternoon with a report from the field.

What a sad statement it is that we Wisconsin riders need to be spread thin this weekend. I will be unable to attend this mission for Pfc. Novak on Saturday, as I will be riding to Superior to honor Spc. Kenneth Cross, but I know my PGR brothers and sisters to the east will do a fine job of representing us all to honor Pfc. Novak. I will be with you all in spirit. Ride safe everyone!

Park n Rides on I43 from Brown Deer Rd. to the north might make a good rally point.  Thoughts?

DOT has this PnR at Hwy C and I43.  There are a couple more as you head further north.  How many riders are interested in meeting up??

There WILL be someone at the Two Rivers armory on Saturday moring for any riders that want to meet there. You will have access to the building for use of restrooms, etc. It is 1.6 miles from the armory to the church. No notification is necessary, I will be there at 0630 just in case.

I'm highly probable for the mission.  I'm about a 1 hr. 45min ride to the staging area.  My prior post had a park n ride at Hwy C and I43.  I'm game for meeting here at 0630-0645??  I'll be able to confirm my attendance tomorrow.

Others from the Milw area please chime in.

It appears that temps on Sat. in Two Rivers may only be in the 50's with a brisk breeze coming off the lake. For those who live inland this means it will be chilly. Please dress accordingly for a two hour flag line. Breaks however, will be encouraged. I may love this kind of weather ,but others probably will suffer. Might have to bring a thermos of coffee .By the way, to answer a question, nothing is planned for Friday. They requested our presence for Sat. Our membership is taxed plenty this weekend. Mac

Possible T-storms too.

So Mac.  Are we staging at the armory and then riding to the school?  Or staging right at the school?

My little bro is coming from Merrill.  This will be his second mission.  His first was Sgt. Jopek.  It is cool standing with my PGR brothers.  Even cooler when one is my REAL brother!
