[CVRC] CVRC/CRAPS Pot-Luck BBQ/Picnic/Swap Reminder

[Dick Flanagan]

The Combined CVRC (Carson Valley Radio Club) and CRAPS (Carson River
Amateur Public Service) Picnic is *this* Saturday!

The first of our two major social events this year will be held Saturday,
May 24th, at the Dayton State Park. If you are not familiar with this
exotic oasis in the desert, it is located 0.7 miles east of the stoplight
in Dayton. The Park has been spoken for from 10:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m.
on the 24th. A good show-up time would be about 11:00 a.m. and stay as
late as you would like. There will be a $2 vehicle charge at the entrance
as in all State Parks; sorry this could not be avoided.

This will be a Pot Luck and there is limited 110 VAC power at the eating
area. The BBQ is ample if you wish to bring some meat to burn and we will
be providing 20 pounds of charcoal. There is also water and a small sink on
the serving table as well as restrooms. The seating should be sufficient as
there are ten full sized picnic tables which should hold 80 without
crowding and is covered so there is plenty of shade. There is a nice lawn
and nature walks, so plenty for kids as well as us older folks to do.

We will also have a casual tailgate swap meet. Bring all of those extra
items you would like to "recycle" and look for that special something you
just gotta have!

If anyone needs any additional information please feel free to call Art or
Ronda Cordes at 775-246-0408 or email them at k7noo@interqwest.com and they
will be as helpful as they can. A map to the park can also be found at

We'll see everyone there!!

73, Dick
