I can bring the bells LOL

Love a woman with bells. rofl

Unfortunately, I will not be at this gathering. Conway pride is the same Sunday so I am choosing to go to it. Sorry Wolfy.

Conway Pride is a wonderful event and if I though I could get some Okies to carpool the night before, even I'd go and make our outing for another Sunday.

Have we established where at Overholser we are going to meet?

No and I was hoping maybe we could have a meeting place and follow each other to the lake.
I could check it out before hand, but it wouldn't help if someone already has the spot I scope out.
I still think June will be way too hot to be sitting in the sun and would have liked to do this in May.
Sadly everyone seems to be too busy in May.

The water will be nice in June and their are plenty of trees and I can bring a big canopy to set up

I can do the last weekend in May, in fact, it may work better. What does everyone think? JAGG can't make it either weekend.

And what is Conway Pride?

A canopy, well if that doesn't bring everyone out that day, then nothing will.
I wonder if part of the lake has a swimming area.
I still need to get a fishing license and city permit, but think I'll wait until I get to the lake for that.

On another note, does everyone know they can fish for free on Mothers Day, (no license required)?

I am on call the last weekend of May so I can't make it then

If everyone brings their own drinks/food plus a little to share, I will have a huge ice chest (almost covers a tailgate) full of ice. Thars my thing I take it everywhere.

As I remember there is a paved road the follows the lake all the way around, so I can bring a Tpost with balloons to serve as a marker of our group, how does that sound?

I was just told that.. On the west side of the lake there is a pavillion, with a childs play area. that will works well for a meet up location, and I am told the road does indeed circle the lake.

permits are purchaced at the OCPD station, at the extreme east end the lake, north of the dam. I am told there are over night permits. We are remembering that glass contaners are not allowed . (not really sure).

there is no swimming at the lake.

and here is a link for more details,

I think the child's play area would be a great meet up place. Now all we have to do is decide on a time? I think bringing our own food with some to share is like potluck, yes? I do believe everyone should bring what they're drinking unless it's water and I'll pick up a 24 pack of it at work to share.

Conway Pride is one of the only Pride celebrations in Arkansas. I heard that Medusa may set up a tent there and if she does I will volunteer to help!

Awwww!!! Darn it anyway! I missed last year's Conway Pride cause I didn't know (or even begin to THINK!) that Conway AR would have a Pride celebration. I had moved here a few months earlier, and really believed that there were next to no LGBT peeps here! Whoda thunk?

Grrrrrr

I just want to say that I'm not from Oklahoma. But every time I see the word or hear it mentioned, I have to sing the song. Either out loud or just in my head. So, I just thought I would share that with you. Now if you don't mind I'll be off to go sing. :)

This will be my first Conway pride.

It won't work out for me, unfortunately :(.

I've been getting a lot of pressure to attend the Conway Pride events here that weekend. If you all are going to schedule the OK gathering on another weekend, I could attend BOTH! (and whoever said I wasn't a greedy girl just does not know me!)

I'm down for another weekend if that means more people will be there.
