German Park this Saturday!
|
|
German Park Recreation Club hosts Biergarten picnics on the last Saturday of June, July & August. Come celebrate German culture and enjoy:
- Live Music
- Authentic German Food and Beer
- Live German Dance Performances
Alan Osterdale will be hosting - he will arrive by 4:00 and will be at one of the tables with an umbrella. Look for the red A2SC ski pole flag and red tablecloths. Alan may leave as early as 7:00, so look for other ski club members if you arrive after 7.

Corn Roast Planning Meetings
|
|
Two more Corn Roast planning meetings are scheduled for Monday, August 7 and Monday, August 21 at 6:00 at the Corner Brewery, 720 Norris St Ypsilanti.
In search of volunteers:
- To bring a gas grill or to haul a gas grill to the event. We can help with the lifting and propane or pay for propane! The grill is for cooking the event’s provided hot dogs and for members food.
- To haul coolers from the AASC locker before the event and return them at the end of the event. We can help with the lifting! The storage locker facility is located 3060 Lohr Cir, Ann Arbor (nearby the I94 and Ann Arbor Saline Rd Exit).
If there is a volunteer with a cargo van or truck who can do both tasks above: the coolers and grill before and after the event - YOU are awesome!. We can help with the lifting.
Questions? Contact Ken Shannon via email or text @ 734 383 4072
