Open Carry Gathering to remember 9/11

[sohighlyunlikely]

This Sept 11th is the 10th anniversary of the the devastating attacks on the American people. As we the people of this community here at OpenCarry.org are filled with true American patriots. I am inviting everyone to join me in a family styled gathering at the park to remember the loss of our fellow American and cherish the freedoms that we as American have here in "The Home of the Free and the Land of the Brave"

This gathering is what you want to make of it. I have the gazebo reserved in Gentry Park Which is Located in Bridgeton Mo. You can contribute to the dinning end of things and come eat and enjoy the company of your other proud Americans or just come and say hi. There are public restrooms and a large kids playground very close by. I looked and found no restrictions to either Open Carry or Conceal Carry other than those mandated by the state.

I have designated a logo'ed shirt for this event and it is for sale here.

Any and all proceeds I make from the shirts and or other items on sale here($4 per shirt $2 other items) will be donated to "The Twin Towers Orphan Fund". http://www.ttof.org/html/

If you wish to commit to assisting to the gather I will list you below so we can see what we have.

Direction to the park from I-270 would be good!

I'll bing some grill'n supplies - long forks, spatula, lighter fluid and another bag of charcoal, cooler with three bags of ice (OK, I'll skip the ice, covered), I'll pop for more if needed(?)as well.
I'll also put in $30.00 cash to (DOC) you for the Gazebo rental - I'll get it to you very soon!

More if needed - let's see what others do.

Still need - large alum. foil, two alum. pans (Deep to put food in), paper plates (SPOKEN FOR), napkins, paper towels, pickles, plastic utensils (SPOKEN FOR), disposable table clothes would be nice, burgers (ALSO SPOKEN FOR) and buns (SOME ONE WILL BRING THIS ALSO), chips...)

I'd love to come and join you all but it all depends on my work schedule and if I have the funds for gas seeing I live in Northwestern Kansas.

Since this event is posted on more than 1 place, it's safe to say we're over 25 or so people, keep it going!

I'll be in Columbia for a charity event. I'm riding 200 miles on my bike for the National Multiple-Sclerosis Society. One of these days, I'll be able to start attending events again. Money has been tight lately.

Doc, that's a nice looking place for the picnic.

I ordered my shirt yesterday. I also picked up a Molon Labe shirt (http://www.cafepress.com/+molon_labe_dark_tshirt,306328798) I've been wanting for a while. With $2 off the M.L. shirt plus 15% off the entire order it was too good of a deal to pass up.


BTW, I just realized there are no times posted for the event. When does it start and for how long do we have the gazebo reserved?

 

[Morpheus97]

What time does it start?

 

[mspgunner]

11:00AM-5:00PM
From memory, some one will correct me if I am in error.....

Can any of you "sing"? Like the Star Spangle Banner?

 

[Tony4310]

I can't. If I tried, you'd all open fire.
