Hey,

We had some discussion in the spring about doing a 
picnic in the fall... Well, in spite of our latest
heat wave, fall is almost here!

I figure our picnic can work a lot like the one we
did in the spring of 2000, except we can have it
at beautiful and convinent Lake Crabtree while we
can still rent boats! We can also use the hiking
and mountain biking trails and of course grill up
some good food.

Here's what I'll need:

* Some show of enthusiasm so that we know that
it's worthwhile to put it together -- off list
email to me is fine, or on list development of
the ideas I'm putting forth here.

* Volunteers to bring covered dish goodies

* Sponsors (individual or corporate) to help cover
the cost of the shelter and some basics (plates,
napkins, burgers, etc.)

* Decision about dates: Here's what I have from 
Lake Crabtree County park:

    - 100 person shelter: September 9th
    - 50 person shelter: September 9th, 16th and 30th

   (I'm partial to the 50 person shelter on September 16th
    b/c it should still be plenty warm and it gives us
    enough time to get our ducks in a row.)

Assuming that there is interest, I'll try to keep
things moving forward so that we can picnic, picnic,
picnic!!!
