I know I have been very quiet lately, and even irresponsible with neglecting the GSA but my life is to a point that I can begin being a part of all of this again and a picnic is a great way to reintroduce myself.
Before I talk about dates I'd like to mention that I have a boat which is set up for fishing, skiing, tubing, etc. The only thing it's not good for is wake boarding since I have no tower. It appears that Rancho San Rafael park is a popular choice so far but I cannot find any information about a lake within it.
If we select a spot that has a lake I'll bring the boat out and we can add water sports to the festivities. Location suggestions include Lahontan, Pyramid or Tahoe. All are well within an acceptable driving distance from the Reno/Sparks area.
Let me know what you all think about that.
As for dates, here is my weekend schedule for the next 6 weeks or so:
Sat 05/27: Attending the Vessel Examiner's course, Coast Guard Station North Lake Tahoe
Sun 05/28: Patrolling Pyramid Lake with the Coast Guard Auxiliary (CGA) and Civil Air Patrol
Sat 06/03: Labs and testing for the CGA's Weather module
Sun 06/04: Open
Sat 06/10: Staffing the "Kids Fish Free" event at Sparks Marina
Sun 06/11: Open
Sat 06/17: Fishing tournament (either staffing or participating in), South Lake Tahoe
Sun 06/18: Open
Sat 06/24: Labs and testing for the CGA's Navigation module
Sun 06/25: Open
Sat 07/01 - Tue 07/04: You will find me on Lake Tahoe each day, alternately patrolling with the CG and CGA on the water, participating in water sports on the water, tying off on the big flotilla near Emerald Bay for the fireworks display or bbq'ing/drinking/sleeping somewhere on the shore. :)
In other words, a Sunday in June would definitely be the best for me. hehe
On a different note, if any of you are interested in water sports on pretty much any given weekend that I have open please let me know. I'd love to have a regular or semi-regular group of folks that I can take out onto the water with me.

It would need to be a weekend, lest we ask the *working* people to eat into their vacation time. :-D
RSR has my vote as well. With regard to dates, I won't be available the last week of June through the first week of July. :-/

I think that Rancho San Rafael would be a good location. The place is huge so I am sure that we could find a location. I am good for any date really, no school means no scheduling issues.
Are we still going to have a meeting this month? I can actually make this month.

Any time following that... and in terms of parks, I'm a little biased
towards Rancho San Rafael.... but mainly by proximity.
