2024 Annual Picnic RSVP May 18, 2024

[Mike Davis]

@Chaz, maybe you can find someone local to your area to rideshare with. I know it can make for a long day, but I've never regretted spending time with like minded folks. It's almost a 2-hr one-way trip for me.

It's traditionally been held at Jordan Lake, I don't recall any discussions of it being held elsewhere.

Early on we tried a few other locations, they just did not work out. And for a while there was a second annual picnic near Shelby, NC.
The lead man for that event retired from leadership and I'm not sure if anyone is carrying that on.
Bottom line, we found a place that is central to the majority of the membership and it is working well for the most people.
We have people from Virginia, SC, TN, most of NC every year. And one in Chicago who keeps promising to show up someday.

Last year we actually had someone come down from upstate New York for the picnic.

I will be there with one extra. We can bring some chips. We got about a 3-1/2 hr trip to get there for it.

Hello all, due to the fact that I am driving about 1500 miles (one-way) from New York State, would it be okay if I brought say rolls for the bbq? Kind of tough keeping a salad cool two days on the road or keep cookies from melting or crumbling. I suppose I could just buy something when I get to NC. Just let me know and I’ll bring whatever is needed. Bob Coant, Fulton, NY
