AUGUST MEETING: Saturday the 22nd; Paulsboro
- Thread starter Brian
- Start date
LOL, won't miss it for the world. My wife Kelly has been asking me when this is scheduled 2 or 3 times a month since Phil and Pete were telling her that they will host, and that was a while ago. Looking forward to the great company, great food and can't wait to see the house and yard. How many days left? LOL ;D

;D Okay folks, just so you know, my main contribution to the menu will be pulled pork. We have an old fashioned pork butcher/smoke shop near us that has been run by the same family since 1865. Check out their website: www.hainesporkshop.com They are AWESOME!!! I may do more depending on my mood, the weather, our budget...(remember the week before, August 15th, is Phil's 50th birthday!). Either way, we'll all eat well that day!
Cheers!!
Cheers!!
Sounds great Pete, I love pulled pork. Will this pork shop be open on Saturday? If so what are there hours. I would like to stop in before or after the meeting. Exactly how far is it from you?

I do believe they are open on Saturday. They are just a couple miles away. Take a look at their website: www.hainsporkshop.com. Or, I'm sure we can sneak away and I'll drive you guys over there. Bring money, lots of money. lol Actually, they're very reasonable. It's the only place I know where you can get a crown roast that will feed 8 people for $20.
Hey gang! I will definitely be attending, and bringing my girlfriend Pam along. We are trying to decide what to bring food/drink wise so I haven't filled out the registration form just yet.
Is there anything you would prefer we bring? Pulled pork and baked beans sound great, and I can't wait to try them! I will be bringing a cooler along to bring home some stuff from that Pork place if it's as good as you say. We just bought a new freezer for the garage and it needs to get stocked up, heh.
But back to my question... some people may not be a fan of pulled pork so is anyone bringing the standard burgers/hot dogs? Do you need chips? Soda/juices? Corn on the cob? ... there are tons of options still open and I'd be willing to bring any of them if you want.
The other question is how many people do we expect to attend? I'm sure many who want to come haven't registered yet or are still deciding. You think about 20-25 at least?
Oh, one more thing. We are currently having a group buy for inverts that will be delivered that Saturday morning (to Central Jersey area) and we are trying to work out a pick-up at the meeting. Would we be able to keep a few orders in a cool area during the meeting (basement, garage, etc.) until the members take them home? It will probably just be a few. Those picking up will probably have a cooler or something of their own, but it's probably not a good idea to keep them in the car for a few hours.
Let us know if there's a spot available please.

Let us know if there's a spot available please.I'm not sure yet about how many people. 20-25 is probably about right, though with our luck we'll probably have the whole group. We'll do the hotdogs/burgers too. Would you mind bringing soda? I would get a mix of regular and diet.
As far as the cool place goes, the meeting being inside or out depends on the weather. We do have A/C so keeping the frags inside will be fine.
Also, please let us know if there will be kids coming so we can make the house kid friendly and have something to keep them busy.

Heya Pete! Sure, I can bring soda. I'll stop at BJ's on the way down and get a good mix of 2 liter bottles... maybe a couple bottles of fruit juice too.
I wasn't talking about bringing frags, although I wouldn't be suprised if people bring some to trade, etc. We will be bringing some inverts (snails, crabs, and some macro algae, etc.) from a group buy that will be delivered to central NJ on Saturday morning and brought to the meeting to disperse to a few who couldn't make it up on the same day as the meeting.
Anyway, if you have a place to put them inside, that should work.
I won't be bringing my son this time around since he's with his mom this weekend, but maybe to a future meeting. Thanks for asking.
See ya this weekend.

You can float them in the sump if you want, also the basement is pretty cool down there.
