Post Kids Day BBQ -- Come Celebrate End of Summer!

Well, it's official....by popular demand, we've started planning an end-of-summer get-together for all of us! We're going to have a BBQ in Mario's (Mirrodie) backyard after Kids Day at LGA on this coming Saturday, September 24. He lives in Melville, so it's not too long of a drive from LGA.

The plan is to have a grill going so that people can have hot dogs, burgers, etc. I'm told that there is a supermarket near Mario's house where you can buy your food and drinks to bring over to his house. This will probably be the easiest way to handle the food. Bring whatever you want, and however much of it you want.

If you plan on attending, please RSVP here in this thread.

We'd also like to try to have as many people carpool as possible, so let's see if we can coordinate that in this thread. We'll make sure that whoever is driving will have directions.

Let's all get out there and celebrate the end of the summer!

I'm very excited about this.

Carpooling is a great way to prevent people from getting lost with too many cars. It's also easier for the drivers to drop everyone off back at LGA instead of making many stops.

People should bring some foods if they want, but money would probably be best so we can all see how much money we have, how many people we have and therefore figure out exactly what we need.

I hope to see a lot of you join us. :)

"Carpooling is a great way..... " also cool to save on gas :)

speaking of gas, I'll pick up another propane tank today as a spare for the grill.

Significant others are cool, welcome. only thing I need is numbers by friday.

Oh, we've got this fairly portable LCD TV. We just had electic work done on the place so I can probably hook it up if we want to view the day's photos.


Only thing is you'll need to bring your camera-to-TV hookup cables (you know, hooks directly into your camera and on the other end, usually has red and yellow or white plugs.)

Maybe we can also hook up a computer with Photoshop installed so a certain Futtographer who will remain nameless doesn't have to punish everyone's eyes with unedited photos... :)

Seriously, this would be a great idea. People could even bring edited photos on their CF cards and still show them by hooking up the camera to the TV.

I'm still finalizing details, but I can definitely bring my laptop (I think Eric has "one or two" as well) if people want to edit/upload/listen to ATC, whatever.

This is sounding awesome, though. Planes and protein...doesn't get much better than that. :)

Speaking of Laptops I'll bring mine as well, this should give everyone a chance to take a look at their pics. Sounds like it will be a BBQ/slide show sort of. lol

I will try to make it and think there is a very slim chance that Nick will be able to show up for the BBQ. This is going to rock! :wink:

Oh, +1 Laptop for me

This might be a first.... an outdoors, BBQ slide show.

As you said Mario, we just gotta make sure that people have the camera-to-television cables to make a slideshow work...

It's interesting to think that we might end up having a "slideshow" where not a single person shoots slides! Should we call it a JPEG show? :)

cool, cool, just keep me apprised of headcounts.

NYCAv's first BBQ, good times!

I can probably get a hold of a cooler, got that covered.

(gotta remember, we're newbie house owners and get stuff on the fly.)

Also, just remembered, we bought a fire pit and havent used it yet. Maybe later that night, we'll see how it goes.

Oh Fire pits are fun! I have one. I'll bring my cooler as well Mario just in case you need another one.

I also want to announce that I will be giving away prizes!!!

I have some **** here that some of you might enjoy.

I might ask trivia questions or something else, but anyone who attends will have a chance to win prizes.

We also have some shirts leftover from last week's EWR convention, so I'll bring them and sell them to anyone that might want.
