We also have a few events which the dates still
have not been set:
"Mystery Event" (End of
July) UPDATE ON MYSTERY
EVENT:
OK, you all have been asking, "What is the Mystery
Event?" Honestly, no one who attended the Planning Meeting can remember
what that event was supposed be, hence the mystery. Therefore, I am
proposing the following two options to the general membership:
1) A day trip to Carowinds in
Charlotte.
2) Jew Bowl (Football) at Crabtree Park
in Morrisville.
If you have an opinion one way or the other, please
send a note to Michael Cohen ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). If we get enough
people interested (10+), we will head down to Carowinds; otherwise, we will have
one of our wacky Jew Bowl games. Please respond by July 10.
You only have 2.5 more Days to vote; we currently have two (2) votes for
Carowinds, and two (2) votes for Jew Bowl.
================================================================
Jew Bowl (Football):
When: Sunday, July 25, 2004 Time: 11:00
AM
Where: Lake
Crabtree County Park, Morrisville,
NC You have probably never heard of it on the radio, read about it in the newspaper, nor seen it on TV. However, Jew Bowl is perhaps one of TYJP members’ favorite events. If you don’t consider yourself to be an athlete or don’t know how to play football, don’t be discouraged; you won’t be the only one. All we ask is everyone have some fun! Directions:
Take I-40 to Exit 285, Aviation Parkway. Turn
right if you're coming from I-40 east, and left if coming from I-40 west (go
south, away from the airport). Look for the entrance to Lake Crabtree Park on
the left in less than a mile. Park in the first lot on the
right.
For more information, please contact Michael Cohen
([EMAIL PROTECTED]). RSVPs are
not required.
================================================================
TYJP Annual Summer Picnic:

this year as we gather at Durant Nature Park for TYJP's annual picnic. We
will be barbecuing hamburgers, hot dogs, and vegetarian items, and drinks

items. The annual picnic has always been TYJP's best attended even each
year and we are looking to continue that tradition.

please let Josh know in advance so we can have an estimate as to how many people
will be playing. For those interested, boats are also available for
rental.

go to one of the many eating establishments in the area. We plan to leave
the park around 5:30 PM and get to one of the eateries by 6:00 PM. More
information will be forthcoming, and will be based upon feedback from interested
parties.
Since Emerald Pointe is approximately 70-90 minutes from the Triangle, we
will be attempting to set-up carpools from the various Triangle areas.
