    I highly agree we want it to be delicious & healthy! I'm asking all our food chef's to bring an indexcard or printed copy of the nutrional facts for each dish. It'll be a great way to share recipes and shouldn't be difficult using MSP recipe calc.
    Tommy (my bf) & I are definitly in (2 adults)

    oh sweet ...july 14th sounds possible for me as well for now so I will say +1 unless its a dog friendly hike I might tag along my dog. but also my Naval Duties fall on the weekends so do not have the schedule on that so I will not be able to conform until next month(june).

    Hi All,
    I just joined the group, but July 14th sounds awesome. My fiance is an MFP member too and I'm certain he will want to come. We love hiking! So put us down! Thanks for organizing this!

    Ok Food Chef's! As summer plans quickly book up, I'm in for this July 14th date!
    Lets start calling out ideas of food, beverages, paper goods & grills so we can start tying it together.
    I'll bring homemade egg rolls (broiled), oriental-marinaded chicken & our portable grill.

    Great idea, I can't make the 14th due to family vacation, but I hope it's a great success and look forward to the next one

    Ok... so we have a date... July 14th and a place... Wadsworth Falls.
    Time - TBD
    Directions and such to follow.

    Now to the delegation of duties.....

    Jackiales - Food/Potluck Coordinator. I will continue to give you numbers updates so we stay on top of how much we may need. Also if possible healthy choices or healtier choices as some of the MFPers here are on here to learn more about eating healthy and what is a better choice and why. But if we all bust our buts on the hikes or other potential games we may indulge is a Chicken Dog or Turkey Burger right... ;)

    DancingNancies - You can coordinate the hike or hikes... figure out the distance and possible times it would take to complete it.

    I was thinking maybe some type of other games like Ultimate frisbee, volleyball, kickball as suggested by Jackiales. Any takers on coordinating games? I could do the adult games is someone would like to coordinate the kids games.... like water ballon toss, 3 legged race, sack race or the egg on the spoon thing.... ???? Fun stuff.

    Also for those coming if you wouldn't mind just give me a total in your posse.... like for me will be 2 Adults 2 Children (2, 6 months)... thanks...

    See you all in a few months.

    Lots of newbies to the group, hopefully we can get a good turn out :)

    Was chatting about this the past two days actually! So excited. I'm at least bringing my other 1/2, Tommy. I'm trying to get my sisters involved too.
    Could we do a 11AM-2:30PM???
    Alright Connecticut MFP users :) it's time to BBQ, picnic, play some field games and hike soon!!!
    Yes healthy & tasty options please! I'm thinking of bringing sessame chicken skewers, cabbage slaw & homemade broiled egg rolls (they are essentially all the same incredients inside the wrappers and outside as side dishes!)
