it has not been set in stone, but I think a lot of people liked it so here goes…

CF oyster roast swap shop…if you have something you’d like to see about selling (or even giving away) we’ll set aside a couple of picnic tables to set your stuff up on…one of the past years I had a little coffee can with a slit cut in the top for people to drop their money in…basically we’re talking about things maybe $5-$20 or so…all honor system…Paul has sold quite a few bottom jigs like this and it is a good place to get rid of some old outdoors stuff maybe you don’t use, or somebody else might be able to use…just make sure you bring a box or something to put your goods in and that your name is clearly marked on it…questions or suggestions?

Been looking forward to this for a long time, but we gotta bow out of this one. Just got a call from my Mom and they had to put my Dad in the hospital so I’m headed to Alabama shortly. They think he had a light stroke. He will be 90 in a couple months.

Sounds good. I have a box of small toe tags around somewhere that I’ll bring and leave on the table for prices and names.

Connor, how many from CofC do you think will show up? and please do mention that this is a CF.com member supported function so if they wanna bring a bag of chips or some cookies or something that would be awesome…

Oh, I only mentioned the oyster roast to a couple guys I fish with and told them to bring food if they come. Figured those that wanted to get some good karma points could donate some cereal since we are collecting it all this week.

Bonzo: do you have a list of last minute needs?

Dito the last minute needs? Pretty sure I’m coming now - can bring whatever or just pitch in on oysters again?

I’ve got some but sophish has come down with the flu so I told her to stay in bed and we’d cover it…also, if anybody has a couple pieces of firewood please throw in your car and bring…you can bring some cash for oysters, but right now our head count is only around 50 and we’ve had about 10 bushels vouched for…Paul will bring 15 bushels so if we are still hungry then somebody else can buy another bushel…thanks for the input everybody…I’ll go ahead and say it now…the weather is looking GREAT!

Been on the fence about committing to coming.
Put me down for two adults and two kids.
Snacks and a load of cereal.

ok everybody we’ve had a slight hiccup for tomorrow and need a little help…first, Paul (sellsfish) needs some prayers as they had a family emergency this afternoon…he will still bring the oysters and knives to the park in the morning but he will not be able to stay or leave the tables, oyster barrels, cocktail sauce, etc…slight chance he can make it back, but we can’t bet on that…SOOOOOOOOOO, I need to see if somebody can bring cocktail sauce (or ketchup and horseradish) and saltine crackers…I’ve got small cups we can serve it in…Paul will leave plenty of oyster knives, but if you have your own you might wanna bring them…I’ll have buckets for shells and will haul them to the oyster recycle place…we’ll have to use the park’s tables to eat on…it will be a little messier than normal so maybe bring a hand towel or two as well…Paul said to please pass along his disappointment in not being able to be there as this will be the first one he’s missed…I think we all understand and wish him and his family the best…

I’ll bring some cocktail sauce.
