It's official.
:penguin:
We are booked for Sunday, Dec 4 at the Meeting Room at the Simpson Garden Park in Bowling Green.
We have the building from 11am -7pm, but the event should officially be about 11:30am- 5pm or maybe 6. There is an event the night before, so I probably can't get us in much before 11am, but maybe a little. It depends on how much clean up there is for the hard working maintenance workers.

Make some decisions and get a cache page up. I can get over there and mark the building coords later this week.

I still have last years decorations and would be happy to help set up. I would have to leave by 5 to make my bowling though. Probably bring Potato Salad

Ammo Cans:
Ok, we had people asking about the Ammo Cans last night at the meet & eat. It is November & the Shindig is about a month away. Here is the list for the Ammos:
Kelt (last receipient of 2010) -------->
Wildwonz ---------->
Roadkill103 ------------>
RedHatJudyH --------->
NOHTOLSteve --------->
ArmyGreenX ---------->
Bioteacher ------->
Team Maltese -------->
Likiajo --------->
HumDrumBill ---------->
Styx ------------>
Squiggy109 --------->
Trainnut ----------->
If you are on this list and will NOT be attending the Shindig on 12/4, please let me know BEFORE Thursday, 11/17/2011 so that we may adjust the list to ensure everyone gets a can. Traditionally you receive a can, and then present to the next person. You are responsible for providing your own can to give away & decorating/stuffing it how you like it. If you have any questions, please e-mail/msg me. Thanks! :)

After creating this forum at SuchaNana's request, I've also updated our Event page at Geocaching.com with a link to this forum.

While reviewing the Event Page I see we have still not set times for the schedule, nor a cost for the event.

Any ideas?
