Peanut Island Gathering 6/17-6/18 2011

[Snookerd]

Ok folks- We are locked down on our dates 6/17/-6/19. The Motley Crew knows the drill:

Most of our crowd has the got it down pat and can help put this thing together. Check in is 1pm Fri and check out is 11am Sun.
We need a count for those members, friends, and lurkers who plans to come for the day or the weekend. We need to know how many to plan for. I think we have about 8 of the 20 sites covered - not counting the overflow sites on the West side of Peanut.

What we should do is make Saturday night the big dinner night which includes Ken's Shrimp and Brian's spicy cocktail sauce. We all can bring 1 covered dish for Sat night ( fish, hot dogs, hamburgers, baked beans, potato salad, shrimp, rum punch,ect) and the throw away plates and utensils. Between ESD, No Bones, GFS, 65 Bowrider, Bushwacker, Briguy ,and myself we have enough people to each bring the goods. The 2 pavilions for the island and the 1 camper's pavilion should be great options for our sign and food area.

Gofastsandman has been running interference with parking. Bring folding chairs. For those of us that have our boats there we can shuttle those that do not from various points nearby. Getting some free press about the event and even some donations for the raffle always just makes it better. Donors get free advertising. A Father's Day Tourney happened last year in Lake Park (nearby) but I don't have 2011 info yet. Please PM / call me 941-713-3372 / start with this post so we can get a count ASAP. This event is a great way to rebuild the momentum that we had going. We definitely need a shirt made. All suggestions are welcome. Let's make this happen!
