Sorry gang, I'm Forum Challenged. Don't know how to add material directly to the needs list. So can the moderator or someone less-challenged help me? Thanks.

Here is my input:
Attendees - Jim Dunlap + 1 adult
Will bring - One cooler with 3 bags of ice (all that will fit inside my cooler).
Will also bring - ALL of the (5 packs of 8 rolls each) 2 f) & g) hot dog and hamburger buns - (whole wheat would be OK??) requested.
plus
One "Beach Frisbee" - that I can hardly use, but maybe someone else can.

Thanks in advance for your help with this.

Jim,

I've already signed up to bring the hot dog and burger rolls. See the previous page of posts. If you'd rather not switch to something else, I'll do so. Please let me know.

No problem, Rich - I'll volunteer for something else...but how? I still don't seem to be able to enter the BBQ list page? Internet and forum challenged, yes...I am. Don't even know how to add my name to the attendee list.

Jim,
Just go back to the first page and find the last post on the attendance list and details on who brings what. Do a "Quote" to that post.
Then you can edit the text and add your stuff to it.

[FibreOptix]

what is the Vendor situation? fees? space?

how many people attended last year?

DATE: SUNDAY JUNE 29, 2008

TIME: Event will begin at 10:30am, BBQs will light up at 11am

LOCATION: River Bend Park Picnic Pavilion, 8700 Potomac Hills Street, Great Falls, VA
Information regarding the site can be found on the Fairfax County Parks Website

COST: It is $10/adult if you send the money via paypal (to Frankoq@hotmail.com) or send a check to FrankoQ (PM him for address).
1) Paypal & check deadline is June 23, 2008:
- indicate number of adult attendants
- list the names
- provide an email address
- your screen name
2) Give money to any of the organizers (Frank, Paul, Algie) at any of the socials (Tysons Corner, Columbia, Gaithersburg). Provide the above info as well.

It is $15/adult if you pay the day of the BBQ.
We are trying to discourage people from paying the day of the BBQ. The reason for this is so we can get a pretty good idea of how many attendees there will be as so we can purchase the correct amount of supplies and food.

This money is being used to pay for the cost of the park rental (Paul had to pay twice for pavilion rental since we changed the original date). It will also go toward paying for the food and supplies that have to be purchased outside of what people are bringing. Since this is now an annual event, if there is any money left after all expense are paid for then that will go toward next year's BBQ. This a non-profit event.

FORMAT: Pot Luck BBQ, all attendees are encouraged to bring a food item (enough to feed 5-7), in addition to these dishes, sides, and desserts; we will be serving standard BBQ fare (hot dogs, burgers), sodas, waters, and condiments. Please see the list below for items required.

Oh well. I figured out how to enter and add to the quote string but couldn't make colors work. One step at a time....

[pseto]

bump...lets go guys, we have a bunch of items above still not accounted for.

also, Frankoq is collecting money, so PayPal your dues, so we can get the ball rolling. Its only a few more weeks away, and I want to start building more momentum for our big event.

[Scottz71]

Guys, this is only two weeks away...where's the love for the sign-up sheet???

Come'on folks, we shouldn't have to market this like last year...good times, good people, great cars....sign up!

[Jim Dunlap]

Well, my dragon bailed on me, so it's "Jim Dunlap + no-one-unless-I-dig-up-an-old-girlfriend" but I'm still planning to attend and will bring what I signed up above to bring. I'm going to go back and search for someone to mail my $10 to in advance. Hey, $5 is a gallon of gas, right??!!

[DarkstarZero]

I'll be there +1 gf, +1 dog.

Beware though, I'll be driving my Mercedes-Benz C32 AMG -- Currently for sale as I plan to get either an M Coupe or M3.

Speaking of M3s, does anyone here own a white M3 at the Carlton House in Reston? I parked next to you yesterday.

[pseto]

anyone with an inkling of artistic ability (actually none is OK too) interested in coming up with a flyer for our picnic? there are a few NCC events that I can get them handed out, so i would need them by Tue/Wed of next week. anyone?

[KL2DC]

[x5m power]

Like to know the count of people if possible

[Jim Dunlap]

335 Coupe Jim here. Maybe the Dragon is going; maybe not. Not having been to a social nor being a paypal insider, I'll pay on the day. But I definitely will attend, and I'm bringing the items already mentioned earlier in the string (cooler, ice, hot dogs). Pray for sun.

[FrankoQ]

BBQ this weekend!!!
