We're having our Annual BBQ on Tuesday, August 20th from 4-9PM. The hours are only a guideline (like an open house). So if work keeps you a little late, feel free to show up late. As we've done in the past, CCTU will provide the meat, hamburgers and hot dogs. We only ask that you consider bringing a side dish or dessert to share with everyone. Also, if you desire it, you can bring an 'adult beverage' (beer only, please, per SSPRD rules). But mostly, just bring yourself and any guests you think might enjoy listening to overblown fish stories.In August, we hold our Annual Picnic in lieu of an inside meeting. It will still be held on the third Tuesday of August, the 20th, like all the other monthly meetings. But instead of the usual meeting place, the picnic will be at Reynolds Landing (same location as last year) at 6745 S. Santa Fe Drive, just north of the Aspen Grove Shopping Center and the Mineral Avenue Light Rail station. Folks can start to arrive about 4pm, and the food should be ready by 5pm or 6pm. We usually stick around until 8pm or later, depending on the weather.The Chapter will provide the hamburgers and hot dogs, along with buns, cheese, and condiments. PLUS, we'll have soft drinks, water, plates, utensils, napkins, someone to do the cooking, and a wealth of good companionship and many legendary fishing stories.Consider bringing a side dish to share. Something simple like potato salad, slaw, beans, dessert, tomatoes, lettuce, or (for you culinary-challenged individuals) a bag of chips is always welcome. But don't let that stop you from dropping in after work. We'd rather have you come empty-handed than not at all!And bring the spouses and kids if you can, or even a neighbor. The SSPRD site offers plenty to do before and after dinner. You can walk off your meal with a sunset stroll or a bike ride along the South Platte river.Reynolds Landing is located just north of the Aspen Grove Shopping Center on Santa Fe Drive. From the south, go north on Santa Fe from Mineral and it's the first left-hand turn lane north of Aspen Grove. From the north, go south on Santa Fe from Bowles Ave, past Santa Fe Sand & Gravel, and take the next right at the entrance to the nursery and the Meadowood Village Mobile Home Park. Bear left, passing along the nursery and the park is at the end of the road.
