I'm not sure in food. Sausages work. I was going to get a few packs of hotdogs for something easy. I think those fall into that category.

Haha. I say let's have a free for all. I'm going to get some chips, hotdogs, and some fixings.
I'm thinking hand held foods.

forget the spreadsheet, let's just rap here.
Do we have an idea as to how many will be coming so we can plan accordingly?

I'm a +3 lol. Wife, sister, and I'm sure I'll have a curious person wonder in.
We need to look at beer dispensing. I believe we have 2 jockey boxes so far.

Virginia and I will be over. I'll smoke up a few pounds almonds or pecans in the morning (unless we have some nut allergies to worry about) and can take along a pasta salad or something along those lines - time isn't on my side as I'm partying with the office until the wee hours tonight.
Keith - will you be around in the morning, before lunch time? It would be great if I didn't have to haul a keg, food and growlers on the bus
and could drop some stuff early.

I'm assuming you are counting mine as one of the jockey boxes. Capable of 2 kegs, which I expect to bring both of, but once/if those blow, we can switch others in (or if my beer sucks). Ball lock.
Keith, Will you bring Stanley's tank and manifold outside, or is it permanently mounted? Do you have ball lock or pin lock for gas dispensing?

I'm am working on a portable manifold and gas setup. I need to get 3 hose clamps and I'm in business. I'll try to get to home hardware today. These are ball lock as well. Plus I'm planning on leaving Stanley in service. Need to get the Belma DIPA out

I'm coming, but won't be over until after supper (Kim is running in the Sole Sisters 5K in the late afternoon, so we'll be over after that). Will bring along some snacks.

Still unsure, will likely depend on weather.
Me and my 2 rugrats in the afternoon if so.
I can bring my jackpac, a keg which is pin lock though.

That works for us. I'm sure by this time we will need a couple supervisors.mikeorr wrote:I'm coming, but won't be over until after supper (Kim is running in the Sole Sisters 5K in the late afternoon, so we'll be over after that). Will bring along some snacks.



I'm getting excited for this. I think I may have a source for ice... My work has a couple large ice machines and the building is fairly vacant on Sats. I think I have a solution! Need to talk to the facilities manager to see if it's ok.... or just to give him a heads up.

Re: Summer Kick Off - Potluck & Beers - June 7th - Sackville
Since you requested Keith, I’ve racked off a 2.5 gal. keg to bring, and I’m busy making a label for the keg. It was a long day at work todayKeith wrote:Bring a taste of that to the June event!GuingesRock wrote:Getting ready for an early morning brew. Double batch of Champagne Citra tomorrow, Pilsner, a little cara-foam, conan yeast, 1lb Citra (FWH and Late). And a little (5ml x 85%) phosphoric acid, in theory to bring down the mash PH to 5.52. No salts.

Bringing cold sausage and bacon with pineapple chunks on cocktail sticks ...don't ask, it's an English thing ...Gets me off the hook (nearly) every time.
