I just got off the phone with Landose. The picnic will be at Ted Fritsch Park in GreenBay near NWTC. Bay Beach will be very crowded on Saturday as all picnic areas available for reservation are taken along with the ball diamond and the expectation is that these large groups have some priority for the overflow areas near the area they rent.

The city also recommended Fritsch Park as being a less crowded location. They assured me that it is the City of Green Bay property. I also called the Town of Hobart PD and asked the general question if that park was in Hobart or Oneida jurisdiction (without mentioning why I was asking) and they stated that it is the City of Green Bay.

Very easy directions.....

WestMason past NWTC toLacount Road. Take a right (north) on Lacount road and it runs right into the park.

This is a very nice park with plenty of room for a group ofadults and kids.

In light of this being a public board and the radio advertising which began this week encouraging people to visit Oc.org, it would be wise for all to edit your posts where the bickering was taking place.

It appears that all of our issues with this picnic have been resolved or will shortly be. The city has agreed to issue a permit for this event without the insurance requirement. There is only a type of liability release form which needs to be signed. We also went ahead and reserved the shelter at Fritsch Park so there will be a place for the kids to get out of the sun and we can use the electrical outlets to keep food warm. This compromise allows us to hold our picnic in a manor that all parties involved should feel better about and anyone who was hesitant should now feel very comfortable in attending.

I have requested an exception to the public building use with firearms statute for this picnic which would allow participants to get out of the sun also. I expect to get a response tomorrow.

Although there is strong opposition to getting a permit at all, this compromise allows us to hold thispicnic in cooperation with the city which will help the positive public image we are trying to convey.

So we are going to compare music collections eh? I'm just a shade over 60k songs for 470 GB. Looks like I could use my 500 GB drive, I was worried it was bigger than that.

well sorry, i beat ya to it...and my system will beat out anything you have. although this would be lite, oldiesback ground music at the picnic. what does 60,000 songs do for you when you can play at the most 70 -80 songs in a 4 hour period. and people always request the same 50 songs a nite....
