For a really "grate" time, join us for our big Friday night Support our Troops Rally followed by a Saturday Tailgate Party and pot-luck barbeque at Woodward Park in Fresno on July 12th and 13th. We're hoping that as many of our California FReepers as possible can join us and perhaps some from further away. Come to California, the land of milk & honey and fruits & nuts, rally, and party with us, then stay a few days to visit Yosemite or Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Parks. Bring the whole family.
We have reserved tables at the Sunset View Picnic Shelter (see arrow on map below) from 3:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. We will begin arriving at around 2:00 p.m. The entrance to Woodward Park is on Audubon Drive off Freeway 41 at Friant Road.
The park road is one way so after paying the $2.00 entry fee, follow the road all the way around the park until you see "Sunset View Picnic Shelter." We will have a "Free Republic Tailgate Rally" sign at the entrance to our site.
1. Anyone who will need a room and wants us to check on a block of rooms, please notify JustAmy.
2. Mama_Bear is maintaining the guest list. Please let her know how many will be attending with you.
3. Cool Guy is planning activities for Saturday. Also he will be taking a survey to see who is interested in a Sunday trip to Yosemite.
4. JustAmy will be coordinating the menu. Fresno Chapter will supply the main dish, the drinks (sorry no alcohol) and the paper products. Anyone wishing to chip in to help cover the costs, FReepmail JustAmy. Local area FReepers can bring salads, side dishes, etc., if you wish. JKPhoto volunteered to be the barbequer-in-chief (he was too slow to take a step backwards).
5. Dress will be summer (hot!) casual.
6. Ping your friends and lets have a party!
7. Anything we have forgotten, please contact us.
8. Since we will not be able to get our tables until 3:00, Cool Guy suggests a change of clothes (he is planning water games!)
Please RSVP by FReepmail to JustAmy, Mama_Bear, or CoolGuy
Hope to see you there!
Thank you,

I like your little smiley graphic, too. Really cute. : )
The FRally and picnic do sound really "grate!" Hopefully I can make it. (So, I guess I'm a "maybe" at the moment.)
