May 1st/2nd will be the OC BBQ! We plan on having it at Lake Mead. This is a little more social then our usual walks through town and a great way to relax and get to know the other OC'rs in our community. It is also a good opportunity for some of the new members to come on out and get to know us. I have a BBQ I can bring down there also. There was also some talk to camping out for the evening too.

I will be updating this post with more specifics as I get them. If you are interested post here so we can get a sense on how much food to bring.

Well pretty much I plan on all of us meeting up nearby then driving in together then setting up camp. If you guys have some ideas please post! I left it open so far to either Saturday or Sunday depending on if people have a preference. I will personally bring a ton of meat and veggies and if others want to bring other stuff please post. I will say that I don't plan on OC'ing much because come on, it's a BBQ and I will be having some beer!

Don't forget there are no loaded firearms at Lake Mead. There are signs posted all over the place

Godspeed has the location and he should be posting it today. As long as I can get a few more people to agree to come I don't mind doing all the leg work to co-ordinate it all. So if you are interested please post.

David this is a bit OT but in NV state parks we can CCW with permit correct? What is the take on OC in our state parks though?
