Description

This is going to be a potluck style gathering. Bring something to share....whether it's an activity, food item or both.

We'll have fun off of the bikes and just shoot the breeze and enjoy the summer. The rain date for this will be July 25th.

Get here via bike, bus or however else you are able to travel. Invite your non-biker friends.

We are going to shoot to meet here: http://bit.ly/bocDnp

Coordinates are 41.964010, -87.634040 if you have your GPS with you! If you don't, just follow the beach out-almost to where it ends, and we'll be around there.

TABLES are still needed! We can all be eating off the ground, but it might be nice to have some tables to set up and serve the food.

Also, there are barbeque stands near where we are setting up, so you can bring something to grill!

Comment by Aaron Bussey on June 23, 2010 at 9:29am: I am bringing Sashtas

Comment by BalloonBiker on June 23, 2010 at 9:21am: Thanks Julie. I will make arrangements to pick it up from you. If you are around that morning, I could probably stop by with my trailer.

Anyone have tables or something that we could use for tables? I think I might have found one table, but depending on what we have, another table might be nice to have.

Comment by Julie Aberman (Hochstadter) on June 21, 2010 at 4:19pm: And I have a small bbq you could pick up.... too big to fit in my trailer but small enough it could easily fit in a car. and it has a full tank of GAS which we are using to cook with, not drive:))

Comment by Julie Aberman (Hochstadter) on June 21, 2010 at 4:17pm: Todd, can you help me with my garden? :))

Comment by Todd Allen on June 21, 2010 at 4:12pm: Jami, thanks for setting this up, I'll come later in the afternoon. I'll bring food, likely raspberries and blueberries from the garden. Maybe tomatoes if they are ripening up well.

Comment by BalloonBiker on June 18, 2010 at 4:44am: I'll bring a bike trailer and will bring a watermelon, some kites and some camp chairs.

IMPORTANT-Does anyone have some kind of grill or barbeque that we could use for the event? I could pick it up even before the event. It looks like we'll be able to have some storage nearby for any large items.
