[Rmc-list] Picnic

[skys]

Just a reminder:

The plan is to arrive between 11:00 and 11:30 and start barbequing around
11:30.  After lunch Don will give us a 1 hour presentation on the "petroleum
distribution business".

Thanks, Larry Schubert

 

Dale Wilshire Memorial Picnic 

22nd Annual Picnic & Swap Meet 

When: Sunday, August 22. Starts at 11:00am rain or shine. 

Where: The scenic Model A Compound of Don Nelson. Don worked his career in
the petroleum distribution business, and has lots of "gas station" nostalgia
in addition to his well-known Model A collection. Rumor has it there is
plenty of parking and that we will all be able to sit in the shade to eat or
inside if it is raining.

Getting There: Find your way to Franktown (from Castle Rock on CO86, or
Parker Road, CO83), then follow the directions from a retired engineer: Head
east on Colo-rado 86 2.3 miles (from Franktown), turn left at E. Tanglewood
Road. Destination will be on right 0.6 miles - 8698 E. Tanglewood Road,
Franktown. 

What: Bring surplus new or used Corvair parts to sell or otherwise
distribute, and partake of grilled burgers and hot dogs with all the
trimmings. There definitely will be soda pop, coffee, and some side dishes.
You're encouraged to bring chips, dips, salads or desserts to share, or any
"specialty" side dish you choose. 

Cost: Free if you drive your Corvair here from Alaska or Hawaii, or $4 per
per-son/$12 per family if your drive originates in the Lower 48. In keeping
with last year, cheap disposable plates and standard eating tools will be
provided at no extra cost! 

Particulars: It will likely be a hot August day. Rain is possible this year,
maybe with a touch of hail just for the sake of variety, but statistically
unlikely. Sunscreen is encour-aged, as well as lawn chairs. Portable shade
is always a safe option, and tables and/or ground tarps are suggested for
swappers.
