Please update number of your guests

Some people have responded that they are attending, but w/o any additional number shown.
I know that some of those generally have a traveling companion or two - i.e. spouses, children etc.
A reasonable accurate count is needed so that we will not run short of food or drink.

Please review and advise if there is an increase in your group.

Check the list - I have adjusted per the usual anticipated.

Pets are welcome in Pocahontas State Park in the enclosed areas - the shelters do qualify. They must be on a 6 ft maximum leash at all times. Be nice and clean up after your pet.

I will be only two this weekend...,

and I will bring some mayo (two bottles of the squeezable kind enough?), and some aluminum foil. I can also get some shredded lettuce and a bag of ice.

They should still be frozen, but you may have to pry them from my childrens hands. We'll bring cookies for the kids to lure them away from the Popsicles!

News Flash

John Pierce has just announced he will be in attendance.

For those that have never met and talked with John, this is your chance. I doubt that anyone else in this country has a better hand on where and how open carry is progressing. Let's give him a big welcome!

Also special thanks to mk4, who though he will be unable to join us, has pledged a donation to VCDL.

This just in

After checking repeatedly, I find that nobody has remembered that cookies are an integral part of any successful picnic. Whereas I am married to a beautiful woman that also just happens to be the World's Greatest Cookie Baker, I will be bringing them

Gr8legs (my definite better half) has offered her world famous Snicker-doodles again, and for that cranky old Santa look a like that doesn't appreciate those, Peanut butter!

I will also kick in 2 bags of ice and a cooler if needed.

Please add me as a definite and Gr8legs as a possible.
