Tips for next time:

Bigger venue -- nobody could sit together so it was like small family groups scattered around and eating by themselves.

Non-mandatory name tags. I couldn't even tell if people were myfolsom folks, and I wasn't going to interrupt dinners to ask. Recognized a few and met a few new ones though.

Don't forget your camera.


Yeah - I learned a lot from this event... good points. We're already thinking about a summer event for the next time.

Thanks for a fun party John!

Great food & the kids had a good time, although my daughter was confused as to why I was introducing myself as JenJen.

As opposed to "mommy"? smile.gif Nice to meet you JJ.

Remember the Livermore Park one years ago? That was a great spot, shade, easy access, kid friendly.

We could also try Negro Bar park. They have the shaded area and it's on the water.

I like the park idea. We could even play softball or have a volleyball tourney.

The mid-week thing killed us this time. We tried to make it but it was just too hectic of a day.

My wife and I had a good time. We didn't extend ourselves and go around introducing ourselves. Actually we saw very little of that. This was our first time at a Folsom Forum get together. I enjoyed my burrito - I will go back. It was fun watching everyone and wondering who was who. I know we were sitting next to CV because I heard someone at his table refer to him using that name.

You arrived at the same time as us. I recognized you (and CV), but didn't introduce myself to anyone. Thanks to Jenjen and tessieca for introducing themselves to me! We had a great time.

Had I known I would have said hi. We were at the table on the other side of the front door (me, husband, three teen girls).
