Hi all. We will be having one of our famous all-club gourmet picnics at South Chamonix Field, 3976 Chamonix Drive, after and/or during the Mayor's Cup on Saturday August 10.
For those of you who have been around for some time, you can skip directly to the part where you RSVP.
What: Philly Runners totally awesome and ridiculously gourmet post-Mayor's Cup picnic and barbecue.
When: Saturday, August 10. Roughly 10am.
Where: In the Athlete's Village for the Mayor's Cup on Belmont Plateau. There will be 30 or 40 running clubs here. We'll be one of them. We'll have a tent. The tent will say "Philly Runners". It’s blue with a black Liberty Bell and white text.

Who: You! All Philly Runners, whether you are running, volunteering, spectating, running our normal 8.5 mile loop or just looking to hang out. Your significant other, friends, kids and dogs are also welcome. Pretty much anybody reading this who wants to come hang out with a bunch of folks who just ran in the Mayor's Cup and eat organic hamburgers with us is welcome. Just let me know you're coming (more on that below).
Why: Because you just ran your butt off and you're hungry and you don't know anywhere else within walking distance of the finish line serving organic hamburgers at 10 o'clock in the morning. Or perhaps you didn't just run your butt off, but you want to come celebrate with those who did, and, while you're at it, you might as well eat some organic hamburgers.
How much: A $15 contribution to the cost of this gourmet picnic will be very much appreciated.
Bring: Yourself and any other cool people you want to hang with. You do not need to bring anything else. If you have some dietary restriction you think I will not be able to accommodate or you have some truly unique food you would like to share with others, that's cool, but please do not feel obligated to bring anything. I plan the purchase of food on the assumption that nobody is bringing anything else.
RSVP: By Thursday, August 8 at Noon. RSVP by posting on the Message Board or on the Facebook event. Please do not RSVP by emailing me, telling me in person, fax, phone or any other way you can think of. This is where I count how many people are coming and it's much easier when everybody is in the same place. When RSVP'ing, please indicate how many people will be in your party and if you have any veggies/vegans or other dietary restrictions. I am willing/able to accommodate any reasonable request provided you give me a heads-up.
Everybody is always welcome, even if you don’t RSVP. I generally have extra food, but an RSVP is really appreciated.
Looking forward to seeing a bunch of hungry runners on Saturday, August 10!
