Postponed - FOURTH ANNUAL SEASON-KICK-OFF BBQ - Postponed

[Geaux]

We've got RSVPs from 19 people so far. If weather uncertainty is holding you back, just post here that you plan to come, weather permitting. As for paying in advance, if weather is bad we'll reschedule. If you can't make the new date, we'll refund your money, less $1 for PayPal. But the RSVP is more important than the money right now. As for it being Mother's Day, bring her along. There'll be a special reward for all the Moms -- seriously, a box of chocolates.

I am in, but will pay at the door, looks like it might get moved to another date.

At this point, that is very likely. 

[Stillie]

At this point, that is very likely. 

So I'm assuming this is definite now. Do we have the new date yet?

[dolci]

No new date yet.

[ducrider45]

Im in and will pay at the door. Weather permitting.

Not to whine or anything, but do we really already know what the weather is going to be like on Sunday?   Sheesh, I already dissed my Mom on Mother's Day to go to this thing, and now it's postponed?

I believe there were a few issues going on
I had not received payment from very many folks - hard to anticipate how much food to buy when people are not RSVP-ing
It is Mother's Day and some people couldn't/wouldn't diss Mom
Although the forecast last weekend ended up being GORGEOUS, there may have been some concern about a paying event that ends up going on or cancelling last minute and we can't reach people to let them know one way or the other...

I don't know all the answers but there are some of the issues, IMHO

Any wood on the new date for the picnic?
I want to be there

Have not heard anything yet.  As soon as a date is selected, we'll get it posted.

And I'd also like to ask for a refund of at least my mother's ticket, since she is now back at home in FL.  I won't know if Stillie can attend until after a new date is selected.

I won't be at Rhodeside this week (most likely) so PM me your address and I'll mail a check out.
