SIGN UP NOW!
We need to
get a head count for the campsite, food purchase, One Fly Contest, and the Not
So Special Olympics.
Please don’t
delay because all planning stems from the attendance sign-ups.
WHERE: Bear
Valley Group Picnic Area (PG&E Group Campground), (Fuller Lake)
DIRECTIONS: From Roseville, take I-80 east to the Hwy. 20 (Grass
Valley) exit. Go approximately 5 miles to Bowman Lake Road. (This is the
road to Fuller Lake.) Go approximately 1/4 mile on Bowman Lake Road to the
campground. The campground is on the Left.
(SEE MAPS BELOW; it's the tent symbol in the lower center/left corner of the map)
WHEN: We have the campground reserved for the entire weekend. You
can come up Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday or you can camp out
for the entire weekend. Make it for part of the weekend or for the whole
weekend…it’s entirely up to you. We’ll be setting up on Thursday morning and
tearing down sometime Sunday afternoon.
THE RULES AND OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF:
1. Have a good time
2. Bring the family
3. Charge of $10 to
cover guests not part of a family membership
4. GBF will provide the main dish…Ribs, chicken, etc. on Saturday night.
Side dishes will be assigned alphabetically. Other than that, BRING YOUR
OWN FOOD, DRINKS AND UTENSILS, ETC
5. A "Not So Special Olympics" will be on
Saturday afternoon:
a. Blind draw two-person teams.
b. Two Handed/Two Fisted Horseshoes
c. Backward Casting--as your partner spots for the caster
d. Scavenger Hunt Fly Tying
6. The barbecue will be fired up so anyone can cook their own
meals Friday evening and we will start the bonfire at dark to celebrate the
winners of the "Not So Special Olympics"
7. The One-Fly Contest will be on
Saturday at Fuller Lake.
The Awards Ceremony and
BBQ will take place at
5:30 p.m.
Saturday evening at the campground
8. First-come, first-served for campsites! We have limited space at the
main campground for RVs. I believe we can fit 3 or 4 at the Main
campground; we can park the others at the parking lot for the nature walk just
up the road and within walking distance
9. Pit toilets (clean)
10. Hot water
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
We need People to step-up and
volunteer for clean up after Saturday’s Picnic.
We also need help with The NOT
SO SPECIAL OLYMPICS on Saturday Afternoon.
It would be appreciated if we
could find a qualified assistant chef to help Tony with some prep on Fri night.
ITEMS NEEDED
If any one has a
MEGAPHONE that we could use for the weekend please
let use know.
We are also looking for
HORSE SHOES
Please Bring FIREWOOD for the
campfire.
RSVP AND QUESTIONS: Let us know
via email (or phone if you're computer-challenged) that (1) you’re going to be
there; (2) how many are in your group; and (3) what days you’ll attend.
We need an accurate headcount for purchasing food.
You can email us with any questions. (However, no questions about contest rules
will be answered, as we will make them up as we go.) We
will have sign-up sheets for attendees, volunteers, and participants in the
contests at the monthly meeting.
There will be more information and a sign-up sheet
available at the general meeting, so you are urged to MAKE YOUR PLANS NOW
and SIGN UP for this fantastic GBF annual event!!!
