I came looking for a forum to place a comment … but there is none. The Campout has one, why not the Picnic?
We will make a forum for the picnic right after the campout. Right now, we (the Board) are focused on the campout and don’t want to confuse others by having two event forums going.
Marc, it sounds like you want to be on the Picnic Committee. 🙂 We do have a private forum already set up for that…

Do we know what day the picnic will be yet? I hope it won’t be when we are out of town. 😥
We were waiting to officially announce this until we also had a location selected, but…
The 2008 WGA Geo-Picnic will (likely) be held Saturday, September 13th.
The Board passed the following motion unanimously, taking into account the preference towards a September date shown by the membership in the recent referendum:
The WGA Geo-Picnic was held in the month of September in 2007 while all previous picnics were held in August. The membership was polled and the majority preferred a September instead of an August (59-47) date for the picnic. Therefore:
The WGA shall hold the annual WGA Geo-Picnic on the second Saturday following Labor Day. This means that in 2008 the picnic shall be held on September 13, 2008. The WGA shall attempt to maintain this date for the Geo-Picnic in coming years.
