Bob, regarding the bbq/coolers, I will not be able to be there until 5:30, if this will start at 4, my bbq/coolers will be late.

snarly had offered the posibility of a bbq pit eliminating the need for, as he put it, backyard grills. any word on if that might pan out?

I can still provide the use of my grill, if need be, it will just have to get there by other means. let me know!

oh and also, count on me +1 for now, possibly more as it gets closer

JSlack,

I confirmed the pit yesterday, so don't worry about the BBQ. We can be there by 4 or a little earlier. No offense with the backyard grill comment;)

I am looking closer to +6 or more with the invites I have extended. Looking forward to meeting more people and introducing some too.

Have we got a specific location at Manito pinned down yet so we know where to show up? Or did I miss that?

Awesome!

no offense taken sir! I love me a big bbq pit! I just had to quote what you were saying because of the way you said it haha!
we built a guy an all stainless bbq smoker in high school once. for payment, he broke it in for us. showed up at something like 4 in the morning to start smoking. was the best meat(ham/turkey/chicken) i'd ever tasted!

looking forward to this picnic! should be a good time meeting everyone!

If I have left anyone out, or there are changes, please post so we can keep an accurate headcount going. We will still need paper plates, plastic ware, condiments, perhaps stuff (lettuce, tomato, onion) for the burgers, relish for the dogs. Use you imagination, whatever you would probably like at a picnic is what others would like also.

Once again, feel free to bring wives, kids, friends etc.

Hope to see you there.

I’m defiantly coming!!! I plan on bringing my Wife and Son but my wife is pregnant so her attendance will kind of depend on how she is feeling on that particular day.

Have been away from the forum for awhile. Decided to make a quick check of it today and now I am glad I did.

Can count me in.

Will try and spread the word amongst some firearm friendly friends and other Spokane OCers who have kind of fallen from the forum as well.

Glad you dropped by, give us some kind of head count so we have the right amount of food. It will be good to see you again.

So far I've got about three guys who I think will join us. Looks like we will have a great turn out. I was also thinking it would be a good idea if someone here could bring a copy of the state preemption that shows the city parks as a non restricted area for firearms. I'm not sure where to find this. Might help mediate any hassling from SPD and or avoid us all getting fined and having to fight it in court. Anyways, looking forward to it!

I do you one better! I will bring the legal brief and the dismissal for the ticket I got at that same park last year. I have to find it though because we recently moved all my stuff has yet to be organized.

You can actually see a copy of the legal brief on my post about that ticket. Here is the link.

Up to 33 so far. That is fairly impressive for one of these things, and in the middle of the week to boot!
