We'll be open for tours from 8-4 on Sat. and 9-4 on Sun. We have the sugar house end of it, but not the woods. The Barrington Fire Dept. across the street will be having a pancake breakfast Sat. morning from 8-11.
Russ Lampron (Loudon) has everything at his house, but the releaser w/ tank is down far away from th SH.
I'm not sure who you could check out with everything at the SH.
Red Maples and Journey's End maple are both on Vac and should be open this weekend.

I will be open 9-4 Saturday and 11-4 Sunday here at Red Roof Maples, 7064 Pleasant St Ext, Loudon NH. Like Josh said my releaser is set up down in the woods but a ride down on the 4 wheelers isn't out of the question. If you were to come after closing on Saturday or before opening on Sunday I could spend more time with you. I also have an RO if you want to check that out.
Jim how do you like the new vacuum pump? I was looking at those at Lapierre's open house last year.

I am at 137 willow rd, East kingston I will open 10-3 both days all my stuff comes right to back of the sugarhouse. releaser is right in back!!! 2 pipe sap ladder set up about 40-50 feet in back of the sugar house. (although I have to build a bridge to it its in the swamp!!!:rolleyes:) but I have lots of pallets so I was thinking of putting some down to get to it. I have a little bb2 but its a good runner!!!
