Hi, MAGTAGgers - I just did an inventory of the non-edible items left over from last year's festival, and we actually have most ot the supplies we need. Plenty of plastic cutl ery, trash bags, foil, cutting knives, Sharpies, and a corkscrew.

Here's what we still could use:

Paper Towels

Ballpoint Pens

Plastic Cups

Name Tags

More white plates for the tomato tasting

Also, my husband Dave will be there to set up, but he is leaving early to go to ComicCon to meet Stan Lee and have him sign his copy of Iron Man #1. So Dave won't be grilling this year. I suggest that anybody who wants to grill food, please supply burgers/dogs/whatever. I'm assuming the Gregs will be doing some grilling, and newbie Dave von Behren says he can flip hamburgers with his good arm (his other arm is in a cast). Also, Grillers - remember to bring some tools along!

I will once again provide fixin's for the BLT bar,and bring some wine.

Please let me know if you can help me out with some of these supplies. Thanks, and here's hoping your tomatoes all ripen over the coming week!
