Las Vegas city park this time?

Depends on if we just want a relaxing outing, or do we want to challenge the establishment. Those who have permission slips are covered but the rest of us would be subject to arrest.
Not that I'm not for doing it in the future, but I have way too much on my plate at the moment to take on another cause right now. I think we need to directly challenge LV on this issue, but we need to plan it out, legal help and all.

I will do some more research on Henderson parks and perhaps we can find one in a better location for LV/NLV folks. There is a new park on Black Mountain that would be nice, just off the 95 close to the 215. Any suggestions?

Judging from what folks said last year, I think we will try it on Sunday this time. People seem to be pretty busy on Saturday. Again, any ideas?

I'm thinking about OCT 27 at about 11 am. Hidden Falls park. Corner of Horizon Drive and Horizon Ridge on Black Mountain in Henderson. Just off the 95 Not far from the 215.

Covered picnic area, playground right there, BBQ's, Open grass area, restrooms right there, Splash pads, Lot's of hiking trails around Black Mountain.

Let me know who is interested in this and I will see if I can put it together.

I may still be in Oregon, depending on how good I am am finding a deer in new territory. I have until November 1 to fill the tag. But don't let me stop you!

We might be able to make it. Only for a hour before we go to work though. Its the day after my Bday. Maybe I will bring a cake!

I'm sorry folks but I have to back out of this. We have family obligations coming up and my weekends are going to be tied up. I am not going to be available until at least after the first of the year. Stuff happens. Maybe someone else can take over the planning for an OC picnic.

Sundays are typically hard for me but if someone pulls something together and that's the best day for the majority I will try to drop in for a bit.
