Test Tailgate for 2009

Hosted by:  Jeremy and Holly [10263 Ridgely Drive}

Date:  Saturday, August 15, 2009

Time:  10:00am – 5:00pm 

It’s time to get everything ready for tailgating! This year, everything is pretty banged up. Many of you have asked how they can help make this tailgate better. The Board Members recently did some inventory on the Krewe’s equipment and we came up with a wish list of items that we need.  

Normally, a few members pulled together and replaced/repaired the gear right before kickoff. To help take the strain off of two or three people, we are going to have a Test Tailgate. During this event, we are going to set everything up just as we would on campus. We are going to go through and fix and prep everything for the upcoming season. 

Carey will be cooking for everyone that attends and we ask that you BYOB and help contribute by bringing something from the Wish List below.
