AND THIS IS HOW THEY END UP...
2016 PIG ROAST

We had previously scheduled the Village Vettes’ “Pig Roast” picnic for Saturday March 31, 2018. That date was also booked last October with our caterer, Hills BBQ, Gainesville, FL. What we did not know then was that this date coincided with Easter weekend, a time when members are spending time with family and many are out of town. At the time it seemed to be an ideal date, the end of March so the weather would probably be great and before our seasonal members headed back north. Needless to say, the registrations for this event haven’t been what we had hoped for. We need a minimum of 125 people for the club to break even on this event. To date we have only about 50 people signed up.

Our 2018 Club Picnic has been moved to our General Meeting date in October, 10/11/18 specifically. at the Eisenhower Recreation Center, at 2
:00 PM, additional details to follow.

Those members who have already paid for this event will remain paid and there will be no additional charges. If you are part of that group but find that the new date, Thursday 10/11/18, isn’t convenient you can request a refund via email from our Treasurer, Tom Swiers. Tom’s email address is tom@swiers.com.

Your concerns and issues are always welcome. If you have questions or comments, please contact me. For those members that have NOT previously registered for this event but now wish to do so, please go to the calendar on our website and register now. You’ll find it listed for October 11, 2018.

Thank You
