Tier1: Fancy Picnic, into the evening

Fancy picnic has been our premiere event for many years. The idea is simple:
We paddle out to an island and have a potluck picnic where we use proper plates, silverware, bring our dishes we are most proud of and ideally dress up too.
We are supplying the plates and the silverware. Just bring a dish to share.

Meeting up at Cedaroak boat ramp at 5pm, hopefully getting on the water by 5:30pm. Going to our standard place on Hog island (hopefully)
There we shall swim, mingle, potluck, celebrate and maybe even dance.

This year we are adding a fun whimsical piece - paddling back in the dark. Bring lights. If you want to paddle back before it's dark you can.

Things to pack:

- Watercraft, all related and PFD
- A (ideally) home made dish you are proud of, ideally with a resealable container and a serving spoon
- Lights for your boat for return trip
- Wear a bathing suit
- Picnic blanket

I have a couple of spots in my kayaks available. Let me know if you are interested.
