Planning a DVSF IV event.

[Doug I]

Hey Ya'll

Mention of the Cookies on another thread under DVSF has given me an idea for an event at DVSF IV. I bounced it past DV and he thinks it is a good one, and asked if I would organise it. I do like DV's style I would have offered and I'm glad it would have been accepted.

My Idea Is : An old fashioned Picnic. A nice park, picnic rugs on the grass with iced drinks and sweets and cookies (!!!!), and all the other picnic pickings.

DV has a state park in mind and I'll get more information on it shortly.

But for now I'm looking for interst in the idea. Who is up for a good old fashioned picnic where you can sit back and enjoy the Ohio countryside and the company of some of the greatest people you'll find anywhere?

I'm in - who's with me?

regards
Doug I

Perhaps this instead of some of the other events. You know, the idea of getting back to our roots. Perhaps the theme of this years event would be to keep it simple, and just enjoy.................

One thing that I'd like to mention is that the fairgrounds just up the street from London is a great place to stay if you have a RV and are towing your car. Last year we came in from Arizona and met new friends from Nevada and Maryland. That was it though. Just the three of us had the whole place to ourselves.
This place is just like a big park with big trees and tons of grass. That may not sound like anything special but being from Arizona, our dog had never seen grass before and thought it was pretty cool stuff.
There are lots of RV hook-ups (Water and electricity. No sewer)
It's a good idea to bring long extension cords and hose so you can keep the RV off the grassy areas if it rains.
Being a fairground, there are facilities so it would be a great place to party.

Doug,
If there is a lot of interest in it, and it is DV approved , I'd be happy to help out. I organized two Cobra picnics last year, which were quite successful, so I'm sure I can help out here. Let me know.

BTW, my idea for the cookies would be to have whoever decided to make and bring cookies to leave a donation jar next to the cookies. No set charge for a cookie, just ask for any donation they want to make. Whether it is a dime or a dollar. My wife and I are planning to bring LOTS of homemade cookies. I'm also hoping Mr.Mustang, hint...hint...will let me preview a sample of his cookies...hint...hint...
