This could be the last year

Every year since 1995 we've been worried that we might not be able to come back to Pentwater the following year. Due to increased rent, a tighter family schedule, and a possible unwillingness of the Gorham's to let us stay, every year is a possible "last year." On the last day, as we clean the house, the cousins lament that "this could be the last year," and that we will never see our beloved Pentwater again.

In the many years since this saying was first heard, we keep coming back, and hope to keep coming back for many years to come.

2009 Note: Talk has reached fever pitch that 2010, the 20th anniversary of Pentwater, could be the last year (for real). Pentwater 2010 has been tentatively dubbed Bring a Legend Pentwater.

"May 2010 Update! Grandma has confirmed: This is the last year (GAS-puh!!). In honor of our 20 years at Pentwater, the Hoerr clan will be honoring this great tradition throughout the final week, June 22nd — June 29th. See you there!"
