1. Bring a yummy dish to pass with a serving utensil. 

2. Bring a wrapped $5 unisex gift to exchange for each person in your party. 

3. If you have any interesting CDs, software, hardware, books, magazines, etc. that you want to give away, we'll include that in the ticket drawing   AFTER the gift exchange. 

4. We will need some help setting up, so if a few can come a bit early, that makes it easy-peasy.

And....pray for good weather. hohohoho. IF the weather looks threatening and we have to cancel, look for an email around noon that day.
