ATTENTION: COME STAY! Minnesota Manx Society and friends

Invitation from Stephen Schaitberger

The next meeting of the Minnesota Manx Society will be held on September 21, 2019 at the home of Stephen and Sharli Schaitberger in Brainerd, Minnesota.   We will gather at 11am and have lunch at noon.  The Northern Manx will provide lunch.

I also invite any Manx to join us! I have learned that the Wisconsin Manx Society may be disbanding and extend an invitation to them in particular.

Katy Prendergast, the President of the North American Manx Association will be joining us to share her vision for the 2020 convention to be held August 7-9 2020 at Plymouth, Mass. Miles Standish, the military leader of the Mayflower, was a Manxman.  Special pre-convention gifts will be shared.

Our address is: 1402 S. 8thSt.

Brainerd, MN 56401

Phone: 218-330-1402

We Brainerd Manx have enough rooms and campers etc. to put up several people for overnight either on Friday Sept 20 or Saturday September 21 if you choose not to drive up and down the same day. Make this a weekend event!!

The theme of our meeting will be “The Cabin Up North”.  Come prepared to share your stories about your family’s adventures up North.  Many Manx found the Minnesota lake cabin to be a reminder of life on the Isle of Man.

Please RSVP so we can get a count for lunch and overnight guests.
