There are
many details to remember the week of the Fling.
Hopefully, this checklist will help simplify things.
1. Your
contribution to the daily potluck. We have an oven, lots of
plugs for crockpots, and a refrigerator available for use.
***Please note: We do not have a microwave, so plan accordingly.
You may also choose to do the potluck buyout option. Please see
the Fling webpage for more information.
2. Dishes to
use during lunch and/or dinner potluck for four days. (Plates,
forks, napkins)
3.
Non-disposable water bottles (Please do not bring disposable
cups or water bottles. People are wonderful about cleaning up
after themselves, but somehow, we continue to find disposable
plastic and paper cups (and disposable water bottles) in unusual
places around the property after most events.)
4. Sunscreen
and hats. (It was in the high 90's and as high as 113 degrees
one year)
5. Jackets,
sweatshirts, and/or blankets in case it is cold. (It was in the
low 60's and drizzly another year)
6. Lawn
chairs identified with your family name. We have a number of
folding chairs, but not enough to accommodate the amount of
people on the property. Many lawnchairs are left after each
Fling, so it is nice to know who they belong to so we can get
them back to you.
7. Please remember to bring copies of
all texts that we will be using for reader's theaters.
8.
Label all jackets, lawnchairs, water bottles, dishes, etc. so
that your things do not end up being taken to Goodwill after six
months of not being claimed.
