2007OpenSourcePicnic
WPLUG's 6th annual Open Source Picnic will be held from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM on August 5, 2007. The reason why we call it "Open Source" is because everyone who attends is to contribute by bringing food, helping out, or organizing activities. It will be as good as the community makes it! Plan to bring the whole family!
There are many ways to participate. Sign up under one of the categories below. If an item is unclaimed, go ahead and take it! If you think of an item that isn't listed, add it.
Be sure to RSVP below for yourself and your guests if you are coming. You need to do this even if you've signed up as bringing something.
