Might be an idea once we have 501(c)3 status. Then we might get a price break on the shelter rental.

We pay for the Pavilions ? Thought it was owned by the city ? Maybe we should look else where....MyWifeSaidYes wrote:We can't afford to.TJW815 wrote:Go big, do a two day event!

We can likely use the park grounds without any charge whatsoever. But, in order to have a dedicated area, we reserve the shelter houses. This guarentees us the dedicated use of that space without any interruptions or disagreements over who should be allowed to use the space.Brian D. wrote:Hopefully Chuck or Schmieg or another OFCC'er familiar with Picnic prep will be able to enlighten us about the park we use, including how user fees work?
Do you nail banners up, use their electric, set up grills under the pavilions, and rearrange the tables?carmen fovozzo wrote:I live in a township and don't pay for the use of the park or pavilions...

Would they just let you do all that for free? And wipe down the tables and empty the trash the day of your event?
You get the place and arrange for the caterer, and we'll bring the speakers and banners
We need three pavilions, just like you saw down here, or one REALLY BIG one, for the second weekend in August
Can we count on you?
We pay for three shelters, and get four to use. The fourth one is across the way, on the other side of the restrooms from where we are a couple hundred yards further along. I feel that since we have guns they won't rent that fourth shelter anyway, so they just throw it in.Brian D. wrote:Hopefully Chuck or Schmieg or another OFCC'er familiar with Picnic prep will be able to enlighten us about the park we use, including how user fees work?
At least a hundred people under roof for the speaking portion, plus room to cook and set up the food lines, and room to set up sign in and registration.TJW815 wrote: How big of a pavilion do you need?
