A Pool Party! Sunday afternoon of Labor Day weekend (Sept. 6) so mark your calendars now!
One of our members in Leland has graciously offered to host an afternoon Pool Party at their home.
Let’s celebrate the beginning of autumn (well, almost) and the resumption of our meetings with this family get together featuring our usual yummy pot luck spread and swimming fun. The party will be from 2:30 to 6. Paper goods, ice, soft drinks and sub sandwiches will be provided. New info: We will be providing sub sandwiches, so we are looking for salads, deserts and other side dishes from the party goers!! But, do not feel that you have to bring food- we will be fine with just the sandwiches. We want to make this easy for people to attend! Just bring yourselves, towels if you are swimming, and food if you care to contribute something. . BYOB too please. We do ask that all children be supervised in the water at all times – there is no lifeguard on duty. This is a good chance for relaxed mingling and an opportunity to get to know other members of our group. We hope you can come!! RSVP early – we may have to cut off the number of guests should the response be more than our host can accommodate.
Please RSVP with the number of people who will attend. You will receive directions to the house a few days before the party, and will be notified of a postponement in case of rain.

SUMMER SOLSTICE PARTY - Anyone who was at last years party will attest to a great time. We will again meet at the Werner's house, which is in the Middle Sound Loop Rd. (Ogden) area, and we will do our best to keep the Sun from "Consuming the Night" !! Lots of magic will be needed
We will meet at 5:30 pm on Saturday June 20th for a picnic dinner, prizes, games, camaraderie and a bit of story telling. Human beings are story tellers, with some research showing 90% of our time with others spent in sharing stories. Most of us have a story or two that is really good and some are better than others with telling them, but this is your chance to talk among friends, so you don't have to be an expert performer! Think about a special event you participated in , a disaster you survived, scary , beautiful, funny times, and plan how to tell a (not toooo long! ) story. After dark let's sit around the back porch and hear some good ones, all while enjoying some snacks and drinks. We will provide hamburgers and hot dogs (including veggie ones). You bring a side dish, desert, or a snack to share along with your beverage of choice. Soft drinks will also be provided. Music and fun, good folks and joy.
(Please note, this party is for active, current, members of The Humanists and Freethinkers of Cape Fear. We ask that you have attended at least one regular meeting prior to your "Yes" RSVP. )

Directions will be given the week of the party to those who have RSVP'd , so please do it now. Thanks, and see you there!

This could be very interesting! I am posting it here under a Meetup, but I do not know at this time if we will attend as a group, or of there is a cost for tickets. But you may want to put it on your calendar for your personal info!
