This Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) amends the Schedule 13D filed by Holiday Stationstores, Inc. (“Holiday”) on December 17, 2007 and the Schedule 13D filed by each of Arthur T. Erickson, II, Brian A. Erickson, Neal D. Erickson, Gerald A. Erickson, Richard A. Erickson, Ronald A. Erickson and Charles E. Pihl (collectively, the “Other Reporting Persons”) on December 17, 2007 (except for the Schedule 13D for Arthur T. Erickson, II, which was filed on February 3, 2008), and relates to the common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”) of Gander Mountain Company (the “Issuer”).  The Other Reporting Persons are members of the Board of Directors of Holiday or the Issuer and the Other Reporting Persons, together with Holiday, may be deemed to constitute a “group” and, accordingly, jointly file this Amendment.  This Amendment is being filed to disclose certain changes to Items 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of each Schedule 13D previously filed by Holiday and the Other Reporting Persons related to the Common Stock of the Issuer (collectively, the “Original 13Ds”).

Only those Items that are reported in this Amendment are amended and supplemented in the manner indicated, and responses to all other Items in the Original 13Ds remain unchanged. The summary descriptions contained herein of certain agreements and documents are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of such agreements and documents filed as Exhibits hereto or incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

Item 2 of the Original 13D filed by Holiday is amended and supplemented by amending and restating in its entirety Appendix I to such Original 13D with Appendix I to this Amendment, attached hereto.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of each of the Original 13Ds is amended and supplemented by adding the following:

As discussed in Item 4, Holiday estimates that it will pay an aggregate of approximately $19.5 million pursuant to the Funding Agreement (as defined in Item 4) in connection with the Reverse Split Funding Amount and the Offer to Purchase Funding Amount (as such terms are defied in Item 4).  Holiday expects to satisfy such obligations using working capital and/or funds borrowed under the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated January 18, 2009 among Holiday Companies, Holiday Stationstores, Inc., U.S. Bank National Association, as agent, and the Lenders as defined therein (together with all amendments, changes and modifications. the “Credit Facility”).  The lender under the Credit Facility is U.S. Bank, N.A.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of each of the Original 13Ds is amended and supplemented by adding the following:

On September 27, 2009, a special committee of the board of directors of the Issuer recommended, and the Issuer’s board of directors approved, a going private transaction through an amendment to the Issuer’s articles of incorporation to effect a 1-for-30,000 reverse stock split of its Common Stock.  After the reverse stock split, any shareholder of the Issuer holding less than one share will receive a cash payment of $5.15 for each share held prior to the reverse split.  Immediately following the reverse stock split, the Issuer will file a second amendment to its articles of incorporation to effect a 30,000-for-1 forward stock split.  As a result, shareholders of the Issuer holding 30,000 or more shares of Common Stock at the time of the reverse split will retain their current numbers of shares of Common Stock without change and not receive cash in the transaction.  The transaction described above is called the “Reverse-Forward Split.”  On September 28, 2009, the Issuer issued a press release announcing this transaction.  A copy of this press release is included as an exhibit to this Amendment.

The funding for the cash payment for the fractional shares in connection with the Reverse-Forward Spit will be provided by Holiday and another shareholder of the Issuer, Gratco LLC.  Holiday has entered into a Funding and Indemnification Agreement with the Issuer (the “Funding Agreement”), pursuant to which Holiday has agreed to fund a portion of the amount required to cash out fractional shares of the Issuer as a result of the Reverse-Forward Split, such that upon completion of the Reverse-Forward Split (and the issuance of shares as set forth below) Holiday, the Other Reporting Persons and certain other members of the Erickson family (the “Holiday Shareholders”) collectively will own the same number of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock as are owned collectively by Gratco LLC and certain of its affiliated shareholders (the “Gratco Shareholders”).  The amount of such funding obligation to be paid by Holiday under the Funding Agreement is called the “Reverse Split Funding Amount”.

Following the effectiveness of the Reverse-Forward Split, the Issuer will issue to Holiday shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock equal to the Reverse Split Funding Amount provided by Holiday divided by $5.15.  The Issuer will issue to Holiday 680,220 of these shares on the business day preceding the effectiveness of the Reverse-Forward Split at Holiday’s request, if Holiday has provided funding of at least $3,503,133 of the Reverse Split Funding Amount at least five days before the effective date of the Reverse-Forward Split.

10

Pursuant to the Funding Agreement, Holiday has also agreed to make an offer to purchase one-half of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer remaining outstanding following the Reverse-Forward Split (other than shares held by either the Holiday Shareholders or the Gratco Shareholders) at a purchase price of $5.15 per share (the “Offer to Purchase”).  The amount to be paid by Holiday under the Funding Agreement in connection with the Offer to Purchase is called the “Offer to Purchase Funding Amount.”  It is the understanding of Holiday and the Other Reporting Persons that Gratco LLC will offer to purchase the other half of the shares of Common Stock of the Issuer remaining outstanding following the Reverse-Forward Split on the same terms.

Holiday estimates that it will pay an aggregate of approximately $19.5 million in connection with the Reverse Split Funding Amount and the Offer to Purchase Funding Amount.  Holiday also estimates that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that will be issued by the Issuer to Holiday upon completion of the Reverse-Forward Split and that will be purchased by Holiday in connection with the Offer to Purchase will be approximately 3.5 million shares (assuming that all of the outstanding shares, other than those held by the Holiday Shareholders and the Gratco Shareholders, are tendered in the Offer to Purchase).

It is expected that shortly after completion of the Reverse-Forward Split, the registration of the Issuer’s Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), would be terminated and the Common Stock would cease to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market.  In addition, it is anticipated that upon consummation of the Reverse-Forward Split the composition of the board of directors of the Issuer might change, although neither Holiday nor any of the Other Reporting Persons know at this time who would serve as members of the board of directors of the Issuer after the Reverse-Forward Split.

Except as stated in response to this Item 4, neither Holiday nor any of the Other Reporting Persons currently has any plan or proposal with respect to the Issuer or its securities which relate to or would result in any of the actions enumerated in clauses (a)-(j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act.

References to and descriptions of the Funding Agreement as set forth above in this Item 4 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the copy of the Funding Agreement included as an exhibit to this Amendment, and incorporated by reference in this Item 4 in their entirety where such references and descriptions appear.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
