That's a nice offer, thanks. And I'll volunteer to participate in a clean-the-grill project. Would you do something like that immediately afterwards? at home? the next day? What needs to be contributed besides labor and willingness to get dirty (eg old clothes, I suppose).
I don't clean it, other than a quick scraping off of large chunks of chicken or whatever, and on re-lighting, getting it really hot and carbonizing anything left... :) So no need for volunteers, I'll take care of it.
I seem to recall at least one picnic where computers were forbidden. Possibly, a concession to family togetherness?
I don't recall that, how to enforce? :)
technical aside: what's the best way to do ad-hoc projects like this? A temporary list? Wiki? Something (list/wiki/?) with a moderator? Use the existing list (eg -steer), inviting broader (temporary?) participation?
As mentioned at the top of the original post, just find a place that's suitable, then post date, start time (end time if you want one, I never post that, especially if fire ring involved for late enjoyment of the water/fire/flames/embers/coals/... oops, getting carried away again... :) And how to find actual "group".
Add what to bring (everything), and what'll be provided (grill, volleyball net, frisbees, balls, ????) and that's it. There will ALWAYS be folks who can't make it, and the ones that can come, will. Since nothing is being bought ahead of hand, no need for a count or signup.
