Alright, if you know your stuff, the trash pickup sounds great!
As for the BBQ, we've all been through this so many times, please don't ask ANYONE for permission to have it in a public place. The answer is always NO, I know this from personal experience.
If you are going to do it,just pick a date and time and we'll show up. The most notice anyone besides us needs is calling the local news to see if they want to come check it out and POSSIBLY a short call to the local PD to LET THEM KNOW what we are doing in the park.
NEVER ASK.
Also, you must be very careful to paint this as a non-demonstration, since firearms are prohibited at any public demonstration in Alabama. The reason you must paint it as such, is that these meetups can be CONSTRUED to be many things, and the police like to try and say it is going to be a demonstration.
Allow me to refer you to my old Dreamland BBQ meetup thread.

Best of luck, and I'll probably be there OC'ing!
