HENRY COE HIKE, Saturday the 12th



What? Wild flower hike & Picnic - Henry Coe State Park. We’ll hike to see the amazing wildflowers painting the hillsides & have a Picnic Lunch (the famous Laurel Buchanan Sandwiches). Plan on a good part of Saturday being taken: we'll have dinner/hang out at the Jelly Belly outlet and try Lisa's amazing restaurant.

Where? Henry Coe State Park (Down near Morgan Hill/Gilroy)
http://www.coepark.org/

When? This Saturday, April 12th
Carpool leaving at 9:37AM From Christian's house

Then we’ll drive to Henry Coe where we'll arrive at some random time. I'm going to confirm that there aren't thousands of little rivers running through the place I want to start, but most likely they will, so we'll probably start hiking from the Henry Coe Headquarters.

What to Bring? This Saturday will be HOT. And Henry Coe is drenched in sun! So bring plenty to drink and some friends. Picnic lunch will be provided.

Sandwich Maker Help Requested – Are you one whose eyes open as soon as the sun pops up? At 8:30 AM I will start making some sandwiches to take on the picnic. This is your chance to learn the famous Laurel Buchanan Sandwich.

Tuesday Night Dinners - April 15th

April 15th - Sonoma Chicken Coop
(Pat in the Hat)

Hey folks, Hoping you can make it out to our "Tuesday Night Dinners". This event will be a regular one, twice a month, as a fellowship night. This event does not intend to be exclusive, so please invite friends. It is intended to bring Christian people together in our approximate age range and build on the fellowship we have. Most of us have been associated with Impact / Sanctuary.

We'll be at the quite casual and very schmaltzy Harry's Hofbrau is schmaltzy! We can stay for hours, playing games like "4 on the Couch", "Egyptian Rat game" or other board games. I know the staff there and they won't kick us out. We can also go to other places later on, but for now I want to keep it very regular, in the same places. There is a tremendous amount of us down in this south bay area.
