Jim Robinson and a bunch of FReepers are going Saturday July 22 to the Ronald Reagan Library and Museum in Simi Valley -- Come join us! There is a LOT to see, so if you can, arrive between 10 and noon for a head start. Jim & Crew will probably arrive about noon and we'll have lunch, then most of us will tour as a group in the afternoon.
At NOON, find the tables near the Berlin Wall display--there are tables where we can picnic. Bring Your Own--or bring enough to share! There is covered seating for 100, 1st come 1st served.
Make a crazy FR Badge or nametag! Bring cameras! Bring sunscreen and water. And...you might bring some American flags and signs in case we find a FReeping opportunity, ya never know....
Dinner will be off-site, location to be announced later.
"RSVP" by bumping this thread!
CARPOOLS, ANYONE?
We've got people coming from Fresno, San Diego, the Inland Empire, Los Angeles---so if you want to carpool from one of these main areas, mention the general area you are coming from and your interest in carpooling, then work out the details by FREEPMAILing.

Oh, man! I don't want to miss this but we are going to be on an Alaskan cruise. I am pouting. I want to be BOTH places! We have not yet been to the Reagan Library and this would have been the perfect time to go and get to meet some freepers that I've not yet gotten a chance to meet at the same time. *sigh*
Oh well, jkphoto and I will be thinking about you all on the 22nd and will raise our glasses to all the fabulous FReepers in attendance and to the greatest president of my lifetime, God rest his soul.
Are you guys driving together?
Look forward to cocktails afterwards.
I know many of you haven't been out since Ronald Reagan was laid to rest - what a great excuse to get out there!
Ventura and Santa Barbara County Ping!!!
Bummer. We have another picnic that day in the S.F. Valley. It isn't until about 5:00, though, so maybe we can be there for a short time. (This summer have noticed several flags, flowers and remembrance messages placed at the Library sign at the corner of Madera and Presidential, compliments of tourists.)
Wow, I'll actually be in SoCal on vacation and might be able to attend!
Some over-exhuberant rangers shot the poor tiger a long time ago. Idiots. Didn't even try to subdue with tranquilizers.
BUMP
There are signs leading to additional parking at another parking lot, with a driveway entering from Madera Rd., on the same side of the street as the Reagan Library but West of Presidential Drive, near/at the intersection of Madera and Country Club Drive West.
I think the overflow lot is used on weekends when the library is busier.
BUMP!
