If you haven't seen your buddies since Shinnenkai or want to meet new people, this is the perfect time to bond over some macaroni salad and fried chicken!

Temperature prediction 78 degrees High! :D

Here are some helpful links to help you get around the park. Look for the JETAANC at Table 1 in Lindley Meadow. Tables are numbered and run east to west. Restrooms are located on the far west side of the Meadow! Dogs are ok, but must remain at all times. No hard liquor or kegs. BEER AND WINE OK. http://www.inetours .com/Pages/ SFLndmrkVws/ GGP_Map.html

Frisbee Golf anyone?

Just another reminder that we'll be having a disc golf fundraiser at 10:00 AM on the morning of the Family Day Picnic at the disc golf course in Golden Gate Park.

If you haven't played disc golf before, that's fine. It looks like we'll have mostly beginners out for the tournament and even the most experienced of players are easily humbled by a well-positioned tree. If you've thrown a frisbee and have played mini golf, you are adequately prepared for this sport. There's no better place to be introduced to the sport than in the beautiful surroundings of Golden Gate Park.

It looks like we'll scale down the inaugural tournament, so the entry fee will probably be on the lower side (say $20 or so depending on the price of rented discs) and we won't have enough people participating to print up commemorative discs. Hopefully we'll still be able to swing a couple of donations for prizes.

Please get back to Douglas soon regarding your interest in playing or volunteering as a spotter on "long drive" and "closest to the pin" holes. Please send Douglas an e-mail at shelton.douglas@ gmail.com
