they *usually* start around 11 am and run until about 5 pm (plus or minus), unless the host specifies otherwise. (The host gets to make the rules). But obviously you don't have to be there that entire time -- you can drop in any time and leave any time as long as you don't get there much earlier than 11 am or leave much later than 5 pm... ish... plus or minus.
(EDIT: Time for this BBQ is 1pm-7pm)
Oh, but there's usually a raffle and doorprizes, and those are not usually drawn until late (like maybe after 4 pm), so if you want to be in on those, you have to stick around. Also, it's not mandatory, but people are usually requested to bring donations for the raffle. The money is used to support the site. Donations can be bugs, supplies, etc. -- pretty much anything cool that someone else might want. _________________ "Tarantulas are friends, not food" (but I bet they taste pretty good with butter and lemon!)
I put in for the day off, I'll know for sure if I can make it in a couple days when they post next week's schedule. I should though, never had a problem with it before. _________________ "Paranoia driving me insane; Paranoia ripping through my brain; Paranoia making me believe; Paranoia, that somebody's after me!"
Do try. They are very fun. _________________ "Paranoia driving me insane; Paranoia ripping through my brain; Paranoia making me believe; Paranoia, that somebody's after me!"
(Sorry, guys -- I tried to edit my post above to put the correct times so people don't get confused, but I can't edit it. Francisco has posted the "official" times above: 1 pm - 7 pm). _________________ "Tarantulas are friends, not food" (but I bet they taste pretty good with butter and lemon!)
I'm also going to miss this BBBQ. The better half made plans way back and I didnt check the planner
Frisco we need to meet so I can get the raffle items to you as well as some donations.
Celeste I got your message and unfortunatally I cant.
This will be the first BBBQ that I will miss, Had a pretty good track record I must say..... _________________ “Look down at me and you see a fool;

Thanks so much to Abraham and his family for the kind hospitality. I had a great time. _________________ "I hold your opinion above all others, tribe elder." - Neshan W. Sarkisian
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are in alphabetical order, like they should be.
Somebody please post pictures for those of us who couldn't make it! :-) _________________ "Tarantulas are friends, not food" (but I bet they taste pretty good with butter and lemon!)

Well, I would... but I left my camera behind at the BBQ. Thankfully, Francisco found it and called me. _________________ "I hold your opinion above all others, tribe elder." - Neshan W. Sarkisian

I'll see about posting mine shortly. Fransisco has the group shots though. _________________ "Paranoia driving me insane; Paranoia ripping through my brain; Paranoia making me believe; Paranoia, that somebody's after me!"
I don't have any pictures of the human atendees, but I do have some pictures of the scorps, tarantulas, & food that my mom took. If you guys would like those, I'd be happy to post them!
Oh, and for the record, I had a great time, I'll definately be going to the next BBQ.
