4th of July BBQ and Pool Party

Well, we chose the 5th of July so everyone can still go to all of the great fireworks displays on the 4th- but why stop celebrating there?! It's a long weekend, so if you're not going out of town- we hope you will join us. I am looking for volunteers to help us plan this event- it would be great if it becomes and annual tradition! Family and friends are welcome, we just ask if you are planning on bringing small children that you plan on keeping a very close eye on them. The party is in the backyard where the pool is, so line of sight supervision is an absolute must! :)

We will be playing pool volleyball, and be dividing the team into Mets fans vs Yankee fans (assuming we have enough on both sides!)- hey, an annual event MUST have bragging rights! ;) Horseshoes will be flyng and boci ball is a great lazy afternoon picnic sport. We are also going to make our first attempt at our own fireworks display.

Tentative Menu:
Hamburgers, hot dogs, grilled chicken
Potatoe salad
veggies, dip
chips
dessert is still TBD, but it will be good!!
beer, wine, soda, water

We feel really funny about having a "cover charge" for the party, but we would really like the food, drinks and entertainment to be great and unfortunately we're not independently wealthy. ;) As soon as we hit the lotto though, we will definitely foot the bill! If you would prefer to bring a menu item for everyone or some cocktails, etc- just contact me so we can coordinate. There will be more details coming soon- but we wanted everyone to mark their calendars and please RSVP no later than June 20th so we can plan accordingly!
