Itinerary:

Some consider "National Barbeque Month" just an excuse to BBQ. Others consider it an excuse to use up wood for which storage space is lacking. Purists will even say that the "National" part only refers to our Yankee neighbors. Either way, let's get out there and cook some juicy steaks and veggies (bring your own)!

The wood will be provided ($1 per person), but you'll be responsible for your own BBQ items. We'll also have a potluck (optional) for sides such as salad, snacks, etc.

We will meet at Site #1. However, we will likely move to one of the "first come first serve" sites for the BBQ itself. So be sure to arrive early and meet with the group or else you may be lost!

BONUS EXCUSE (for Canadian content): May 14th, 1946: House of Commons passes the Canadian Citizenship Act; first nationality statute in Canada to define its people as Canadians; Canadian citizenship to be distinct and primary over being a British subject; to take effect January 1, 1947.
