UPCOMING COMARA PICNIC - June 26 On Sunday afternoon June 26th we have the second annual IRA and COMARA Picnic--a catered event at the Lake Fairfax Park ($15 per attendee). We really hope you can come and meet and greet old friends. See http://comara.org/social/2011-picnic.htm for details. We have a very short form where you can let us know you plan to attend. http://comara.org/social/picnicReservation1.htm Please fill out the form and then send your check ($15 per person) to: COMARA PO Box 34594 Bethesda, MD 20827. We have a shelter reserved which will provide shade (if hot) and cover (if wet). In the unlikely event that very severe weather is forecast, the event may be canceled. The information you provide on the form will allow us to contact you if it becomes necessary to cancel the picnic. If the picnic is cancelled, the treasurer will simply destroy your check, and then confirm that in an email to you. Reservation checks must be received by June 20, since the picnic is being catered and an accurate attendance count is vital. Lake Fairfax Park is a great venue for this picnic. http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/lakefairfax/ Lake Fairfax Park's 476 acres feature: Lake Fairfax Carousel, An 18-acre lake, The Water Mine - an outdoor swimming pool enveloped by a lazy river; seasonal fishing, campgrounds, picnic areas, trails, party areas, a carousel, and playground. Nominal fees are charged for the Water Mine, carousel, boating, and camping. Swimming and windsurfing are prohibited in the lake. You can find directions to the park at the park web site. Please let us know soon if you plan to attend so the Board can relax and stop worrying about attendance. Use the reservation form. If you then find you can't attend, just use the same form to let us know. http://comara.org/social/picnicReservation1.htm
