SoCal TPI Picnic Saturday July 21st

Based on feedback from talking to members in private, Saturday July 21st seems to work, so we're going to lock in that date.

Craig Regional Park
3300 State College Blvd.
Fullerton, CA 92835
http://ocparks.com/parks/ted/

The park charges $5 to get in, please bring cash.

I'm going to try for the area to the right, as you enter the park. Look down the hill and check for my car. If so, take the first street on the right to the campsite. If its taken like last year, then I will search around till I find something. Just look for the thirdgens.

This is a potluck event. Please bring a food or drink or dessert to share with everyone. We have a canopy and folding chairs, but more is always needed.

We'll start around 3pm, have dinner around 5pm, and leave around 8pm when it gets dark.

Everyone is welcome, and bring your family.

Here is last years thread for info:

Here's the page on Facebook so you can mark yourself as going:

Thank you!!

PS: We're still taking suggestions for a second picnic date in the other thread.

Re: SoCal TPI Picnic Saturday July 21st

I have to train a new employee and it doesn't seem like I can get the day off.

Re: SoCal TPI Picnic Saturday July 21st

Thank you to everyone who came, I hope you all had fun.

The food was excellent thanks to Luis and Don's great cooking skills.

If there's enough interest we will have another picnic in September.

Doesnt seem like a lot of interest.

And now the shop is closing and Don is retiring at the end of the year, so we're going to have a big party then.
