An Indoor-Outdoor Picnic
For the past several years we've held our annual picnic indoors, in recognition of some of our members' allergy, mobility, and other health issues. However, an influx of new members has brought many requests to go back outside.
This year we hope to accommodate both groups. We've moved the Picnic's timing to September, in the hope it won't be as hot as it often is in June.
Grills and some picnic tables will be set up in the shady, level parking lot area in back of The Writers Place, once all the equipment and food has been unloaded.
We also will set up some of the tables indoors, so everyone will have a place to eat that is comfortable and safe.

Field Day in Front
We also plan to set up lawn games in the front yard of The Writers Place. If you have something fun to share, be it Frisbees, croquet, bocci, horseshoes, beanbags, Nerf weapons, Super-Soakers, or whatever, please bring your toys to the party.
Feeding the Fen
KaCSFFS will provide hot dogs, hamburgers, buns, ketchup, mustard, some soda left over from the ConSuite, and tableware (table-coverings, plastic flatware, plates, cups, napkins, etc.)--but that leaves a lot of things we need from members:
- Grills, charcoal, utensils, and most importantly COOKS!
- Delicious side dishes to share with everyone (there's a sign-up message on the Google Group. Please use it, so we can make sure not everyone brings the same thing).
- Drinks of your choice, if our standard soda choices don't work for you.
- More specialized condiments (pickles, tomatoes, lettuce, onions, mayo, cheese, chili, or other goodies)
- Ice, for drinks and coolers
It should be fun! It should be delicious! You should be there! Please sign up to bring stuff, and join the festivities.
