Late August wouldn't work for the youngin' crowd because by then we're all off at college.
End of July / beginning of August seems ideal.
Okay, so someone needs to take charge. Post a date or perhaps two, and people can vote on which works best for most.
Perhaps C is for Company should take on this task?
if it's the park, i can bring all the animals
You'll need a permit.
easy as pie
Ha! This is NEW YORK, baby, not some whatever-old-park-in-laid-back-Florida park.
I'll take charge (I'm so butch!) and suggest Aug. 4 or Aug. 11 with a second to follow the flea market weekend. Of course, you know, if I'm in charge, I'm printing nametags.
Go ahead and print 'em. What are you going to do - put up velvet ropes that we can't get past without our nametags?
It'll be fun!
They'll all contain the name of a Broadway character, and I'll stick them on each participant's back. Then, by asking his or her fellow picnic-goers yes or no questions, he or she will have to determine which character is on their back.
Other activities to be decided after I finish reading this "Have Fun at Your Baby Shower" book.
If you don't want to be in charge, just say so. You don't have to get all passive-aggressive.
bah rath
i'll get one
I'm a gay male in New York, Rath. I can get deported if I'm not passive aggressive.
But -- seriously, I suggest those dates.
C is for Company needs to come back and put those suggested dates in the thread title, or Mr. P-A, you can start a new thread! yay!
I'm up for being on the committee.
Awww, look at Tink, my little organizer! :-P
Rath, two picnics are fine with me. Of course, I'll only be available for pictures and autographs at one of them.

I'm here and glad to see this back up.
I nominate July 28th seeing as it is late July, key vacation time, a Saturday. 29th would work as well. Let's hear some opinions on this weekend in general for now and then if necessary, we can re-arrange with some more dates before setting anything.
Shamey, that should be in the thread title!
C, Calvin already picked two weekends in August. Perhaps we should work on one July and one August suggestion?
I'd better get a goddamn engraved invitation.
*blinks cutely*
"I'm printing nametags." We'll just have to remind moony to remove hers when she goes for a stroll around the park!
i've never been invited to one of these board shindigs.
Oh please, Jaily, you big queen.
Last July and the Mid August dates sound best to me. The one in July/August will probably be more locals anyway, because most out of towners will come in for the fleamarket in Sept then just a random weekend in summer. Either way, I'm down for both.
A Sunday please.
There are no invitations, you big queens!
I vote against the July 28/29 date, as I'll be in Vermont that weekend. And mejust, now's the time to change that, eh?
