MEMORIAL DAY PICNIC & WORK DAY

Hi Folks,

Can you believe it’s finally Spring! Not only that, our Memorial Day Work Day/Picnic is fast approaching—

Saturday, May 23.

I’m here to get a count on the number of folks to feed for the Work Day crew and the Picnic in the evening.

Work Day Crew:

Our Ice Mountain Chuck Wagon will be providing a small breakfast (sweets and coffee) at the common area at 9:00am sharp.
The Chuck Wagon will be back at the common area for a brown paper bag lunch (sandwiches and such) around 1:00pm.
The plans are to work on the swinging bridges, cleanup the sides of the river, some road work, and perhaps other things. Sounds pretty ambitious doesn’t it!
You’ll need to bring your work gloves, cordless power drill (fully charged), hammer, and whatever basic hand tools you have. Meet at the Common Area at 9:00am for assignments and food.

Picnic:

As we have done in the past, the Association will provide hot dogs, hamburgers, the stuff that goes with them, some soda, and water.
Association Members, please bring a dish to pass. I’ll not repeat my baked bean message from last year—you know who you are. But we did miss them!
Anyway, bring something that you like to fix and/or that’s easy to travel. Example: Potato Salad, Macaroni Salad, Cole Slaw, Pasta Salad, Tomato Salad, Veggie Salad, Chips N Dip, !Baked Beans! Desserts can be anything as long as the first ingredient is sugar. Remember, there are no lost points for store bought goodies.
If you don’t like hot dogs and hamburgers, bring something you’d like to throw on the grill. (I know I should be more specific……) Same goes for drinks. If there’s a special beverage that goes down smooth after a long day, bring it. (Bring one for me too—just kidding!)

Now---What I Need From You---!

Please—Pretty Please----Reply to this email and let me know if you will be part of the Work Day Crew. We need to know how many will be there for breakfast and lunch so we can feed you.
Also, Pretty Please—let me know how many will be coming to the Picnic. As always, bring any guests you have visiting. Just let me know the number in your party. If you want to let me know what you’ll bring as a dish to pass, I’ll do my best to do some coordinating. If not, we’ll do our best with 5 dishes of potato salad and 15 dishes of baked beans (we’re outside—it doesn’t matter).

Now that you’re at the end of this note, I’m going to tell you the time of the Picnic—6:00pm.

PLEASE – RSVP – BY – 5/14/09 with the number for the Work Crew & Picnic

NOTE: If it rains, the Work Crew will be canceled and the Picnic will be held in one of the barns.

By the way—Happy 20th Anniversary to the Ice Mountain community! You’ll be hearing more about this later.

Hope to hear from ya soon!!

See Ya Saturday May 23!!!
