This invitation is for pre-op, post-op and anyone who is thinking about surgery, and also to everyone's family, friends and significant others. The more the merrier!!!!!!
You should bring all your own supplies, food, drink, etc. Like last year we all brought various things and even shared too. There are (2) pedestal grills to cook on so you can bring charcoal or if you prefer you can bring your own portable if you have one. There are (12) picnic tables in each pavilion and there is even a concession stand in the area too. There are restroom facilities available and parking.
Get the word out to everyone and let's make this a great success. This is such a great group of people and we all have so much fun together, Saturday night at the Gala was an example of how much we all enjoy each other. Let's keep this going everyone!!!!!
Again all monies made on the raffle will be donated to the Foundation like our Spring Gala, Annual Walk, etc. We want to help in anyway we can. So if you would like to donate prizes, gift cards, baskets etc. it would be greatly appreciated. I will be making a very special gift basket to donate as one of the prizes too.
Thanks everyone and I hope to see all of you there this year. Again any questions contact Kim C, Kathy K, Julio, Terri C, Nancy K or Dorota.
An Agenda will be posted soon on the boards with events and times. See keep an eye out for whats to come. If you would like to participate in helping us out or donating anything just contact one of us.

my uncle used to have summer bashes all of the time.....he had a pond so there was alot of swimming...I remember he had this for a contest:
He took a whole watermelon.....took a container of squeeze parkay margarine and covered the watermelon....he threw the now greased watermelon into the water and the person who got it out of the water first won a whole silver dollar!!!
IT WAS AWESOME!! well..for us countryfolk it was....
Hey there,
Sounds hilarioius and fun for the kids to do. I will suggest it and see how it goes. Thanks for the input its greatly appreciated.
At my neighborhood block parties we always have watermelon eating contests and distant spitting contests of the pits from the watermelon. This one is a good one too. Thanks.
Thats a really good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
