2016 National Rally

Meet 'n Greet ('n Eat!)

Since this is the kick-off event (& the clock is ticking), we are putting out the call to all the great cooks among our attendees to sign up & contribute their favorite dishes for the Meet 'n Greet on Wednesday evening, 9/21.

This event, although not a full-blown potluck, usually brings enough finger food & side dishes to serve as a substitute for the evening meal. As stated, we ask for (but NOT limited to) 'finger' food, side dishes, hors d'oeuvres, salads, crockpot-type food &, of course, the sweet stuff. Just post your contribution here & we'll get you on the list. Coffee & water will be provided. Please bring serving spoons (if needed) for your dish. You don't need to bring enough to feed everyone, just a sampling of your favorite dish...


REMEMBER - this is a user-run rally, so if you want to eat, then everyone PLEASE contribute their fair share (this goes for ALL meal get-togethers). It IS NOT a free meal - your entry fee is YOUR CONTRIBUTION, & You WILL probably be noticed if you show up empty-handed...! Don't leave it up to other folks to feed you! Also, it is a great way for the new folks to get acquainted, share recipes, & start participating at the Rally.

Thanks also to all in advance for their culinary donations, & let's have another GREAT Rally...!

Let's get with the program folks & sign up! Time is growing short, & the rally will be here before you know it... Let's make it 100%!

SETUP/CLEANUP VOLUNTEERS - PLEASE meet in the large tent @ 5:30pm to help setup & get things ready. Also, please stay after the M&G for a few minutes to help wipe down the tables. THANKS again for volunteering...!

UPDATE (8/14) - We have enough SETUP/CLEANUP Volunteers. Thanks to all who stepped up...!
