August potluck on Sunday, August 14, from 5:00 to 8:00 PM

We have reserved the Coneflower Shelter at Moore Memorial Park (3050 Northridge Pkwy in northwest Ames). Please bring family and friends – this is intended to be an informal social event, and ALL are welcome! No sign-up or RSVP is required.
Please bring one or more main course dishes (and maybe a side dish!) to share along with place settings (plates, silverware, napkins, etc.) and non-alcoholic beverages for your group. Drinking water and Dutch oven cobbler will be provided. There is limited electrical service at the shelter.
The potluck will be preceded by a foxhunt starting at 2:00pm, courtesy of KC0JUO.
AD0KX is tentatively planning to bring an HF radio for some informal portable HF operation.
We’ll have lots of socializing, fun, and good food. Please plan to attend!
