Blogger picnic update #2

June 9th, 2005 at 11:45am Posted by Bill

Mark your calendars for June 18th!
 
 
Here are directions to Raleigh Park:
 
 
Take Hwy 26 West
Take the Sylvan exit, #71B
Turn left on SW Scholls Ferry Rd at the top of the exit
Stay on Scholls Ferry for about 1 1/2 miles
Turn right on SW Beaverton-Hillsdale Hwy
Stay on Beaverton-Hillsdale Hwy for about 1/2 mile
Turn right on SW 78th Av.
The park is about 1/2 mile down, just past the library.
 
 
Link to the park on Google maps
 
 
The park has an outdoor public pool, which I’m told will be open on that day from 1:00-3:00, and from 3:30-5:00. The cost is $4.50 for kids and $6.00 for adults, so bring your suits if you think you may want go in for a dip.
 
 
Plan to show up at about noon or so. I have the picnic tables reserved until 6:00, so we pretty much have all day to goof around. I have at least one fun activity planned for everyone, and I may try to get creative and plan more. I also have goodies for all the kids, and prizes for the activity winners.
 
 
I will be supplying hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, condiments, plates, cups, napkins, and utensils, as well as the barbecue stuff (like briquets and starter fluid, etc.) I would really appreciate everyone’s help with the rest of the picnic-type stuff. Here’s a list of what I was thinking:
 
 

  • Potato salad
  • Chips and dips
  • Watermelon
  • Drinks (soda, juices, bottled water, whatever)
  • Anything else you desire (Gardenburgers, chicken, brats)

 
 
Please leave a comment here to indicate what you can bring (like a high-tech sign-up sheet), and also to confirm once more who is going to be able to come. I understand that we’ve lost Tabitha to a prior engagement :( , but hopefully we’ll still have a good turnout.

    so i have been thrown a curve… pun inteneded. my son’s baseball team has a tournament friday night. if they win, they play again saturday. this was all thrown together monday. as a matter of fact, i don’t even think breanna knows that yet, and her husband is one of the coaches. crap. i hate this stuff. so, my RSVP has to be tentative, but you know how much i want to be there, and i’ll try with all of my might!
