While we are on the topic of the bbq...if you don't receive SPG or league notifications, Pinsiders are welcome, as well. All I ask is that you contribute in some way (potluck sidedish, dessert, or beverages to share). I also hope you stay to eat, mingle, and get to know the people who share a love for the hobby with you (especially between 12 - 1pm). If you have tournament, vendor, or volunteer obligations, we understand. You're welcome to make a plate and get back to your duties. If you plan on playing in the tournament, do not choose the morning tee times. You won't be finished in time to make the bbq.
Trudeau will be at the bbq between 12-1pm, and then he has autograph duties at the show. In my one experience meeting John and exchanging emails recently, I have found that he is very accessible. Make him feel at home, but no autograph requests during the bbq, please.
If there is anyone attending with good photography skills, lots of pics would be greatly appreciated. There have been some years where the pics have been sadly lacking.
