After we are sufficently stuffed and need to move around a bit, we will begin the games. The following list of games will be available for, YES, COMPETITION AND PRIZES. (Of course, if you truly are not interested in playing the games, you can always enjoy the entertainment provided by the competitors!!)

Team Events

Hillbilly Golf
Washers
Sequence

Individual Events

Mexican Train
Phase 10

Please let us know if you have a favorite game you would like to have added to the competition list. Also, please indicate if it is a team or individual event.

A sign-up list will be available the morning of the Potluck and Game Day from 9:00am - 12:30pm so that teams, individuals and games have been identified. (Changes will be accepted throughout the day.) The sign-up list will be located at Michael and Renee's Montana on a table out front. Thanks to Robbie who posted an awesome picture of the palm trees in front of our Montana just today, we will be easily located for sign-ups. (Good timing Robbie and you didn't even know!!)

You can participate in as many events you want to as long as time allows. Competition will end approximately 4:30 - 5:00. Please also note that Hillbilly Golf and Washers will be available to play all week so that skills can be strengthened!

NOW FOR THE PRIZESlease bring a wrapped prize, without a name on it, (one per Montana or SOB) for $10 or less. The prizes can be left on the same table where you sign-up for the games. (If we have extra prizes after all winning teams and individuals have received their prize, names will be drawn for the remainder.) There will only be one team for each team event that will win a prize. For team events, there will be playoffs, depending on the number of games. The same applies for individual events: one winner per event; however, for example, if we end up with three Mexican Train tables, there will be a winner for each table.

If you have questions, please let us know. Happy eating and playing!!

DW will make Frog-Eye-Salad. My job is to find enough frogs eyes to make it. Frogs are sure hard to find this time of year.

[simonsrf]

Don,

This time of year they hang out near the mud pie.

[DHenry]

Looks like this is going to be a real fun day. Thanks for doing all of this.

[GOFNUTS]

Don & Joy, thanks for being the first responders and bringing the Frog-Eye-Salad, and good luck finding the frog eyes!!!!

[nailbender]

Since I am the first responder, does that mean I can be first in line to eat? LOL

Maybe I can get Robbie to help catch the frogs.

[8.1al]

Nila said she will bring sweet&sour meatballs and me if I behave myself

[GOFNUTS]

Don, we will take into consideration you being first in line to eat, LOL for sure!!

Nila, thanks for bringing the sweet & sour meatballs, however, making Charlie behave himself(?), no fun!!

[mtheo]

We will barbeque a tri tip roast.

[exav8tr]

The frog eyes are usually between the eye of newt and the batwings, right behind the mud pie at your local Dinn Wixie. Uh oh, took my pain meds to soon again!!!!

[simonsrf]

Charlie & Nila,

Thanks for the pic, you bring tears to these old eyes...love Monument Valley and your picture.

on edit:

nailbender: If I get the frog eyes, I get first in line!

[GOFNUTS]

Mark & Karen, the tri tip roast sounds wonderful, thank you!

[GOFNUTS]

Okay, Monument Valley is another place to add to our list of places to go! That is a beautiful picture Charlie & Nila, but I had to look twice since the picture is no longer of "you two"!

[8.1al]

I hated to replace the picture of us. Nobody will know what we look like now. We visited Canyon DeChelly on the advice of Robbie&Alice and it was just a short drive to Monument Valley. They are both worth the drive.

[Carl n Susan]

Renee: Put us down for Turkey.

[GOFNUTS]

Thanks Carl and Susan, will add you to the list for Turkey. It was delicious last year and looking forward to it again!
