    Gosh, we should probably check with Diana, seeing as she's our "local on the ground!" or Staci. Sad to think Phred would have the pavilion reserved by now.

    Shelter is reserved for May 27th

    Yes, the shelter is reserved for Sunday of Memorial Day weekend as well as Sunday of Labor Day weekend. And yes it would have been done well before I did it a couple of weeks ago by Phred. He was always on top of things which is why he was in charge of reserving it when he lived so far away and I lived right here in town. I am a procrastinator, Phred was NOT! So the shelter is reserved for May 27th. So start planning on coming. Come one, Come all. I know Phred can't be there but he would be the last to want to see this gathering end.

    Well, it's only two weeks away - Is ANYONE going to be able to make this meeting? Kimmy we will sure miss you. Anna, I hope you are able to find someone to cover for you. Ashley, I sure hope you will still be able to come. Stacy, you don't have to work do you? I could up the ante possibly and say you know Amy's bringing the baby (I think) so you all better get here to see her before she turns 16. I'm going to copy one of Phred's old posts to start the menu although I guess if no one comes we won't need much, we will?

    Just a thought but would Monday (or Saturday) be better with people's work schedules?

    well yes and no that I have to work - we have a "hole" in the schedule that day and I signed up to work for 4 hours at 7pm. it was either that or I'd get stuck working during the 11 to 3 or 3 to 7 shift and i didn't want that! so I will just have to leave around 5ish
