To many of you I’d be considered local, but then again to some locals I wouldn’t be. I grew up there, went to highschool there, hell I lived there for HALF of my life.

Fernie is very much a tradition oriented place, anyone who has graduated there would know this. Everything is typically the same from year to year, yea even the same as it was in the 80’s. It’s a matter of respect for one thing to keep up on traditions.

Fernie wasn’t always what it is today and yea, some of the locals need to realize that change happens. I moved from Fernie this summer because I was tired of throwing my money into someone else’s mortgage and getting screwed by local employers hiring anything but locals.

Anyway, this is besides the point. All power to you marko and whoever else it is throwing this party, sounds like it’ll be a blast. But the point has been made, it is NOT the mogul smoker. Everyone wonders why locals hate RCR and people like you so much? There is no respect for the age old traditions. Could have just thrown a party and come up with a name for it, but obviously that wouldn’t have generated the hype that has come with killing the age old tradition.

For all that go, have a great time.. But remember, it’s just a party.. not the Mogul Smoker.
