I will be there as well.
February 5, 2021 at 1:38 pm #2012433If I’m in town I could jump over. The 4 minute drive to the Osceola landing is pretty manageable.
February 5, 2021 at 2:14 pm #2012443I just put it on my calendar.

February 24, 2021 at 2:46 pm #2017557Two months is going to fly by! Don’t forget to save the date:
Saturday, April 24th
Osceola Landing, Shafer, MN 55074I’ll bring my apple pie drinks and various baked goods. 😋 I’m thinking potluck style – everyone can bring a little something to share. What time would folks like to gather? Noonish?
February 24, 2021 at 5:43 pm #2017630It would be fun to PO in person for a change.

Hey Beast, in the past when I’ve coordinated these unofficial gatherings they’ve been at restaurants or bars, so this will be the first outdoors/park gathering. So I’m thinking we can all bring something to share, either food or drink, and maybe someone can bring some paper towels and garbage bags? Very casual of course, so no worries if you’re not able to bring something fancy or anything. I’m thinking this might just be a bigger turnout than my previous coordinated gatherings, so I’m really looking forward to this!

February 26, 2021 at 8:37 pm #2018171Why did I think the Osceola landing was in Osceola?

Usually happens naturally after a day of wild game, spicy cheeses and Busch lattes

According to Google it’s designated as Shafer, but Osceola is right there on the border so I think you could say either.

March 23, 2021 at 10:46 pm #2024306Osceola landing park is fairly large. I believe it has atleast 2 covered picnic shelters and other picnic areas. We might want to pick an area to meet. My vote is for the shelter on the south side of the park. This would allow for 2 nearby sand beaches for parking boats. I do believe these shelters can be reserved but not sure about this early in the year.
Anyone have any contact info for the park?

No contact info, but yes the south shelter is the better of the 2 and lots of fishing options right from shore.
March 24, 2021 at 7:13 am #2024328I looked up the shelter info. You are able to reserve them after April 1. They do have a 25 person limit because of “covid”.
March 24, 2021 at 7:13 am #2024329Rum River in Cambridge has a nice park w/facilities. The river can offer some great fishing – both shore and canoe. We do float trips from one of the smaller access areas upstream with great success.
March 24, 2021 at 7:24 am #2024332What kind of fish can you catch from shore up there? What is open In April?
Thanks for setting this up Sharon.
