780.1 | always ready to party and/or picnic! | FROSTY::JANEB | See it happen => Make it happen | Wed Mar 20 1991 10:45 | 30 |
| Sounds great! I vote for a potluck. If you want, we can assign food
categories by lastname: A-F brings salads, etc. Let me know and I'll
put in a list from a book at home.
There have been one or two of these in previous years - any advice from
those organizers/participants? They would have checked out the park
scene within recent years and probably have some hints.

| RE: .0,.1
I don't know if the family could join me, but... As I provide sound
systems to area bands etc., When you find a date for this "event".
consider the PA system provided. (Free of charge!!) All you supply is
the records/tapes/CDs. All else will be supplied.

I would love to attend this too. I've said not okay to the first couple
of Sundays as I'm due May 5th and if I go late, this could be kinda
soon, but we'll see. I know where the turn off is off Rt. 13 where
Cal is going to be staying. I live in Townsend which is just over the
border from there into Mass.

780.4 | We'll be there (I think!) | BCSE::WEIER | Patty, DTN 381-0877 | Wed Mar 20 1991 19:10 | 13 |
| hahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa PLAN?? US??? hahahahahahaaaa!! I'm sure
that any weekend would be fine.
For work we usually have our outings at BearBrook State Park which is
sort of near Manchester. There's also Silver Lake State Park in Hollis
NH (I think), that's nice and it set up very nicely for families. I
believe it's $2.00 per person, and they have grills, a nice swimming
lake, lifeguard, food and you can put a small (not powered) boat in the
lake if you like. Even when it's crowded, it's not too crowded.
Let us know when!!

780.5 | Yes! | MYGUY::LANDINGHAM | Mrs. Kip | Thu Mar 21 1991 09:44 | 9 |
| Count me in! I'd love to meet everybody! We live in Central Mass., so
northern Mass./southern New Hampster would be good. Hollis sounds
good. Whenever the date is scheduled, I'll be there... and hopefully,
Mister Kip [actually, he's "Mister Marcia"] will come, too.
I'll volunteer to make a salad, bake, etc... Looking forward to this!

| Sounds like a lot of fun. You pick the date and we will try our
darndest to attend. My husband usually works Sundays so we can
try to switch if it's his Sunday to work.
It would be 2 kids/2 adults
1 car
N. Mass or S. NH is fine as we live near Framingham
MILPND::Pimentel is how to reach me
I like the idea of A-F bring ... etc. And perhaps everyone bring
their own meat or cover charge for hamburg/hot dogs would be good too.

780.9 | Count us in!\ | NRADM::TRIPPL | | Mon Apr 08 1991 14:43 | 18 |
| Count us in, that's two adults, well that's one adult and a dad who
forgot her grew up! and one very active AJ who's 4. One vehicle,
either the car or pickup, and if you it have near a place with an RV
campground we'll try it as part of a weekend campout. After all it
never hurts to have an extra bathroom, stove or fridge at one of these
things!
Did anyone give any consideration to State parks? I know of the Harold
Parker State park in Andover, and I presume there must be one somewhere
in So. NH. Wern't there a couple near the old animal farm in Hudson
NH?
I'll pitch in and bake or concoct!
Now who's got the softball, bat, and mits, and the batmiddon set up or
lawn darts (I've got a "safe" set of those).

It's now April 9. Please respond soon with your preferred dates so we
can pick a date for our picnic and make a park reservation.
So far, the interest seems to be potluck and Southern NH sounds fine.
When we have a date and a headcount I will see about getting a
reservation.
Thanks for everybody's ideas and for the offer of a sound system
Do we have any folk musicians?

| This is great! I've never been to a noters picnic before.
I would love Alexa (8mos) to make some new friends--and mom too!
We are available any Sunday except -- July 14 & 21st and Aug. 11th.
There are 3 of us -- one car. My mail address is TRACTR::MAZUR.
I would prefer something in So. NH since I live and work in Merrimack.
The only park I know of near me is Greeley Park -- it's okay but
nothing special.
I've been to BearBrook once before--that seemed like an ideal place
for something like this!
Thanks!

780.25 | The picnic is ON for June 9! | WORDY::STEINHART | Pixillated | Mon Apr 29 1991 17:10 | 18 |
| The date most folks can attend is June 9. Apologies to those who can't
make that date.
We'll probably go to Silver Lake in Hollis, NH. Feedback on that
location has been positive. I believe you may have to get there fairly
early to get parking in the lot. Has anyone had a group picnic there?
Is there any way to hold a group of adjacent tables?
The most popular suggestion has been to have a modified potluck, with
each family bringing a dish to share and their own grill meats. I
would also like to have a "cash bar" of soda and juices by the can.
(Recycled, natch.)
Details to follow as we firm it up.
HOLD THAT DATE!
Laura

780.26 | More details about the park ... | BCSE::WEIER | Patty, DTN 381-0877 | Thu May 02 1991 20:35 | 21 |
| I've never had a problem parking at Silver Lake.
I've never had a group picnic there, but there are enough tables, that
you could get at least SOME tables and then plenty of space for
blankets etc to make room for everyone.
One thing to keep in mind -- this is a NH State Park. Admission is
$2.00 per head (even little heads (-:), unless someone can work
something different with the park. ALSO, you bring it in, you bring it
out. There are no trash facilities there. You'll get a trash bag when
you come in and you have to bring your trash out with you. Not a big
deal, but something to be aware of.
There's shade and sun as well as a LARGE field, swings/slides, a sandy
beach (w/ lifeguard) that's half shade, half sun after noonish. Woods
and wide open spaces. Also, there's bathrooms/showers, as well as a
concession stand (expensive).
Look forward to seeing you there!!

| I went with Nicole around 2 p.m. and didn't see a sign with balloons or
any obvious pointer to the group. Were you all still there then ? I
was a little disappointed to have missed you all.

| We were there until about 2:30. We had a great time in the fresh
air and cool breeze, slides and swings - so great that when we got
home, Eric took a 4 HOUR nap!!!!!
Thanks Laura.
