“Investigating UFOs For 6 Decades: What Has Changed?”
Wow, what a meeting. Although we had a few technical difficulties at the start, Rich pulled through with a wonderful presentation. Originally Rich told us his presentation would take about an hour or an hour and 15 minutes. Rich talked for over 2 hours! He had lots to say and talk about. My only suggestion for you is to watch the Full meeting video on the Insiders page!
Great Presentation Rich!
Remer Bigfoot Days
“The Home of Bigfoot”
Northland MUFON is heading to Remer, MN for “Bigfoot Days” on July 5 and 6th. Although we don’t hunt for Bigfoot, there is evidence that our Furry Friend could be associated with ET’s. Whether they are ET’s themselves or part of the ET agenda we simply don’t know. All we do know is that Remer, MN “The Home of Bigfoot”, is celebrating the big guy with a special festival every year. This year we have been invited to attend and are looking forward to fun and festivities. Come out and join Anna, Jer, Keeley, Michele, and others. We’ll all be there getting the word out about Northland MUFON, what we do and how we help! Come meet us. We’d love to talk with you if you’ve had an event or experience you would like to share. Heck, we’d just love to talk with you regardless! While we are there we do plan on making a series of short video’s that will be featured on our YouTube Channel “Northland MUFON”. If you are willing to talk on camera we’d love to chat. If you are not, we’d still love the hear all about. Keep in mind that Anna and Jer are both on MUFON’s “Experiencer Resource Team”. A team set up my MUFON to help experiencers talk about and deal with the odd and strange. We understand if you are having a tough time, we can help! For questions contact us at NorthlandMUFONInfo@gmail.com.
We’ll see you all in Remer July 5 and 6!
Event Re-Cap!
The little sleepy hamlet of Remer, Minnesota came to life on the July 4th weekend.
Remer is like a lot of small towns in rural northern Minnesota however, it is a gateway to the very popular vacation areas of Outing, Emily, Nisswa and the Brainerd Lakes Area. There is always quite a bit of traffic in the summer months but on this particular weekend it was exceptional! The Bigfoot festival is comprised of 2 days of activities including Bigfoot story time, scavenger hunts, bingo, a Bigfoot calling contest and Karaoke as well as several vendors and food stands.
Northland MUFON was set up in a great location, a small green space with a lot of shade trees, benches and a gazebo. The first night was pretty quiet but there were a few people who stopped by to purchase MUFON merchandise and share UFO experiences.
The second day was definitely the “big day” with hundreds of people packing into the small town, all sporting various types of Bigfoot regalia. People came from all over Minnesota and many had personal UFO experiences to share. These will be posted on the Northland MUFON YouTube channel.
Everything was going really well until some heavy clouds moved in, bringing a pretty good rain. The MUFON staff was on hand to protect the merchandise and literature, and the sun came out once again. Unfortunately, even bigger, badder clouds moved in with rain, wind and hail! This last storm was enough to send all but the MUFON group packing. They were the last ones to leave.
All in all it was a success. Maybe next year Mother Nature will be a little more cooperative!
