DFW get together at Elm Fork 4/6/2013

Instead of private messaging Rx8er for head count, choose how many adults and how many kids (if any) in the poll. Then we can see a real-time update on the attendance!

Oh man! Someone close to me is getting married that afternoon. I'm not going to be able to make it.............but I'll send a card.....they'll understand. :evil2:

Seriously though, I am part of the wedding party, so I HAVE to be there. :mrgreen:

The wife and I were going to try and make it when it was a restaurant venue. But I'm not ready to dip into the ammo reserves for the range and cooking out is just going to be more of a time investment than what our two boys schedules will allow.
Maybe next time.

I will be there. Now, as to what age are you calling children? I am bringing my wife for sure and would like to bring my grown daughter and son.

I'm in. We'll have to see how things go and how many people can make it. I guess the cook-out will have to be tentative based on how many can come and the weather. A restaurant can be the backup plan.

Grown children are adults - we were looking more at how many children might want 'child' activities. And since 4 adults isn't a poll option, we'll just have to remember to add two to the adults!!

I'll be there with two adults and my 13 year old daughter.

All day, what's up with that. You should be able to find some time to stop by. :mrgreen:

Shooting is not a requirement to come out and be a part of the get together. I'm in the same boat and don;t know if I'll be shooting.

Come out, meet a couple folks, eat some BBQ and leave. I'm cool with that.

I'm coming and bringing my shotgun. Andy's going to teach me how to shoot. :-)

Man, you are SO going to owe me! :lol:

RX8er and Busy_Mom - I'd strongly suggest phoning Elm Fork and just check that no other group wants that day as well, just to be on the safe side.
Good point, thanks. I think Moby was taking care of the reservations! I'll reach out to him to make sure all is squared away.

I'm interested but non-committal. Posting here so that I don't lose track of the thread. . . will reply to the poll once I know if we can make it.
