Sounds like fun for sure.

I will bring donuts and timbits for the yougins.  Will judge how many once I see a count of how many will be attending.

Looking forward to a great day...

Should I bring my brownies again?  They seem to be a hit for the past 2 BBQ's :)

Sounds like a real blast see everyone there...I voted and said wife and son are coming(3) total, but kid will probably not want to come along...(teenage monster)

Ciaus

Brownies please!!
I will bring fish cookies!

i will bring water bottles again. prolly only 1-2 cases this time.. since i had like 4.5cases left over last time.

btw, just for people to know....if you already didn't... remember the washroom facility that was there? (currently under construction) the old one has been torn down and a new one is being built, and it wont be ready for september (if i remember correctly) ... im not sure if they have go-huts, for the public....only reason i know this is i worked there for some of the new construction....just maybe something to consider

Vince.. i already have Water no need to bring any

Ok...brownies it is!

Who is bringing the Beer? j/k

I'm still in discussion with the wife on this one. i want to attend, but she is having a girls weekend camping and will be using the Car and I am spending the time with my kids.

I'll be attending if I can switch my Sunday to work, seeing as to next Sunday most likely will be my scheduled sunday to work.

I've already marked our attendance in the poll, but forgot to mention I'll bring a salad. Either bean or pasta, I think.  :)

I will be bringing some toys and such for the kiddies!

Things are sounds positive so it looks like all 4 of us will be attending.

Bruce

Although the food is scheduled from 1pm to 3pm, we will start arriving around noon to setup.

BEverages(pop, water, juice, Iced tea) Buns and condiments(mustard dijon, Honey, and Regular)), BBQsauce, Ketchup, Relish) WILL be provided these items are not required for people to bring

i will also be bringing some Hotdogs(all beef) and some veggie burgers as well for people with dietary restrictions


WHAT WE DO NEED:
Salads, deserts, Veggies, fruit

Please post on this thread what you plan to bring so that we dont end up with everyone bringing the same items


I will be bringing a Cucumber Salad

60 people SO FAR...looks like its going to be a BUSY day...

If anyone has access to a portable quick set up Gazebo shelter, please feel free to bring it along on Sunday, it will be a bonus if it sprinkles as well if the sun is in all it`s glory.
Oh also bring your folding chairs.
Please post in this thread if you can bring a portable shelter.

The pig is being carved at 1, so be there by 1 or earlier if you want it fresh!

I will bring 2 dozen donuts and 60 timbits... 

Not much of a baker... :)

Sorry, couldn't resist.

The club is in need of borrowing a Small gas generator as a back up in the event of power disruption on Sunday , this would only be used to drive a Small motor on the Pig Spit to turn the rotisserie.
If you have  one that you are willing to help us out with please PM me ASAP.
Thanks

The Roasters will be there from 10.300 AM along with a few of us doing the finsihing touches required , feel free to come @ 10.30 we can always do with a extra set of hands.
Before proceeding to Site B please have a peek at the shelterd building at the end of the parking lot( where the wash rooms were loctaed, there is a very good chance we might have a nicer location there , which might be usefull if it sprinklles  & also that site has useable Hydro.

Not having been to the park before, where is site "B"?  I am looking at Google maps and see a building at the western end of the parking lot, at the south end of the park.

TIA

Just a reminder, if it was like previous years, it will cost $5 to park your vehicle and I don't believe there are in-out privileges.  Plan accordingly.

I will most likely be bringing a spinach salad. I might even be bringing a portable shelter that is easy to set up.

Nerine and I will be there at 9ish after she drops of the hubby at work.

9ish?!  Wowsers!!  An all day BBQ!

Do you guys need anything at all?  I have time to help in the morning but I have to leave precisely at 1:30pm...work calls. 

I have all the ingredients for my brownies, which I will be baking tonight...including the most chocolatey, gooey frosting I could find :D

I am bringing a roll of toilet paper...JUST in case...I just finished baking and will be digging up something to do and dragging things out of the basement and loading the car tonight! If anyone else is able to come early...that would be excellent!! Joyce & I might get a bit bored...

I will try to be there around 11-12 to help if anything needs setting up.  Cant come earlier as I am hosting a poker game tonight and it will run into the wee hours... :)

See you there

Would you like me to pick you up from the park and bring you over here?  I'll be around that way in the morning anyways.  That way you don't have to stay at the park all day OR loose your $5 for parking.

we have to stake out the site....so can't leave unless others will be there to take over...

0 more sleeps!  Waiting for the wife to get home....still..... Been up since 4am.... when the kids got me up.

Salad is made, and ready to put in a cooler.

Bruce

Thanks to everyone for coming out, thanks to Country Roasters for a delicious roast, and a big thanks to Wayne for organizing, and the other execs who helped.
