Our granddaughter will be there (age 3) she was the 1/3 that was mistaken for pelosi.

It looks like myself, my lady, and our two scamps might actually be able to make it to the picnic. It didn't look like my work schedule would allow it, but I'm cashing in some favors to get coverage for at least the majority of the day

Ok, It looks like I might be there. I have to get the brakes fixed on MsPaliden's ride. She can't come she has to go to a Autorecyclers meeting with DMV on Sat. to learn a whole new set of regs to replace the whole new set of regs they just learned and who knows, may be back next weekend to learn....... Anyway the good news is MsPaliden agreed to fix her world renowned and most requested banana pudding made from scratch
NO fake stuff here guys! Let me know if you still need a pudding. I'll bring some unsweet tea also

My Niece has a couple friends who want to come, I sent them info and said to bring some food.allingeneral wrote:Here's the head count as I see it so far.
So, not including my peeps, that's 15.
I hope we'll have a few more roger up soon. The shelter that I rented will hold 50 people. I'd like to see 40 show up. Get the word out!
I have an acquaintance blogger who might be interested, OK to invite?

Shouldn't be a problem. You can also invite them to join the forum whether they make the picnic or not.StaffordCarry wrote:My Niece has a couple friends who want to come, I sent them info and said to bring some food.allingeneral wrote:Here's the head count as I see it so far.

I, my wife, and our two kids will be coming. My six-month old son maybe a little cranky though... he just switched to a cross draw holster for his S&W Model 500 and isn't quite use to it yet.
We'll be late though... not showing up until 1:30. I hope that's ok.

I'll be there with the bbq rig. Is there a list of what people are bringing? I can do some redskin potato salad.

Re: VGOF Open Carry Picnic - Stafford, VA - 26 Sep 2009
Looks like we're going to have a pretty good turnout. Current head count is nearing 50 people!
I received the Silver Eagle Group range passes in the mail today. There are 10 of them to hand out. I may keep one or two though. Is that ok?
I hope the weather holds out, but if not - we'll be under a pavilion, so at least we can stay dry and hand out some freebies. I'll stand out in the rain and cook on the grill
Should be a good time!
