Hey Folks, it's just your slacker Midwest Forum Moderator here. I don't get on much anymore due to work and two crazy dogs that manipulate alot of home time.

I would be up for a get together/bar-b-que. In the past we have tried to get together in the Schaumburg area because it was central to most of those involved. Plus Busse woods is right there if you want to go the forest preserve route. Just an idea...

That sounds like a good idea, Busse woods, sounds like a plan to me. So far we are doing this on the 13th september, at about 1 or so at busse woods in the schaumberg area. How's that sound to everyone. Just need to know what everyone is going to bring. Beer, food, charcoal etc. I"LL BRING BEER!!!

Ill see you all there on Sep 13th. I need to check a map first. Is this a big park? After I confirm it with my woman Ill tell you what I can bring. Looks like BEER is pretty much covered so I guess Ill bring something from one of the other food groups.

Busse Woods is huge. 590 acres, big enough to see from a statlite photo. Here are a couple of links to maps...

Bowski if you need help with any planning let me know, I live about 5 minutes from Busse woods.

Also it might be time to create a new thread for this so we can get more people involved!

I've created a new thread in this section to drum up more interest titled Chicago Area Getogether. Later Paul.

Special Services chick!!! How'd I know I'd see you on here soliciting those "tea lites"?? We didn't get to fondue. Hit Weber Grill instead. Sorry you missed an awesome lunch!
