SANDIA NET ANNUAL PICNIC

Back to the Home Page

Details on the 2004 Semi-Official Gathering

Who: All sandia Net Members (regular and irregular) and spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, significant other, good lookin' hitchhiker, etc.

When: Saturday, September 18th, 2004

Where: N7RIH Brent & Dee Littler at the Littler Family Homestead (if you haven't received an invite, contact Brent for directions)

Why: Why ask why? Save the questions for Trivia...

Cost: $5 per person US - that's $6.55 CDN to you, Rudy!
We'll supply the BBQ beef (probably tri-tip), chicken if anyone wants it, ice, paper plates, etc.
This is not so much about covering costs; more like trying to get a rough idea of how many will be here. If you've ever invited fifty people to a party, who all said they'd be there, and have five show up, you'll know why.

Time: We'll plan on getting together around 2 p.m. and eat around 5 p.m. or so.

Details: We have parking for cars and RV's in a field out back.

  • Please bring your favorite dish to share and BYOB
  • Big yard, if anybody wants to pitch a tent or throw out a sleeping bag
  • Motels: talk to Brent for details
  • Early arrivals welcome; anytime Friday or Saturday. You're welcome to stay through Sunday (some of us still have to work on Monday in order to pay for Diving)
  • Talk-in: 146.52 or 7.294 - conditions permitting
  • Weather should be around 90 and sunny (or 65 and rainy)
  • We have a hot tub available. Bring a swim suit and towel - sorry no cut-offs allowed
  • Entertainment Chairman Jerry (KF6ACR) and his wife Shirley are planning lots of fun and games. Also, anyone with a special talent is welcome to perform
  • If you can bring your own chairs, that will help. Extra tables would be great too if you have one, although I think Gail (K5GFM) is bring some. Please let us know. Also, if you want real forks and knives, you might want to bring your own. We'll have cheap, flimsy plastic ones that will probably break
  • We only have one bathroom, which worked OK last year (Didn't see too many people crossing their legs. You just don't want to wait until the last minute!).
  • Last year, some people brought things to donate for an auction. It is not necessary, but if you have any extra pieces of equipment you couldn't even get rid of on eBay, we'll auction it off and the proceeds will be seed money for next year
  • West Nile Virus is prevalent in this area. We suggest you bring some insect repellant with DEET, like Deep Woods OFF.
  • If we missed anything, don't hesitate to ask. Email Brent (N7RIH). An RSVP is important by September 4th!
