Yeah,It's cool Marion. Do whatever you can.  If you can't, then you can't.

I'm not sure what anyone else's thoughts are, but maybe we can shoot for the first Sunday in October, which would be the 5th...

I know there's a lot of hooplah about going to the Grove in October, but since it's a daytime trip, and if we coordinate with the Forest Preserve beforehand and let them know our intent to help clean up the grove, I doubt there will be problems.

Thoughts?

I might be able to. However, I won't be able to be out there until about 1p. Are you going to contact the forest preserve?

If there is enough interest and enough commitment to this date, then I will gladly give them a call and see what we need to do.

Depending on the attendees, we could bring rakes, trash bags, etc for small stuff, and if Ghost's chainsaws are still as hungry as he said they were, I'm sure we could rip through the fallen trees with little trouble.

If we get enough people, I'll do it.

HEY!  Don't the Forest Perserve cops screw with folks if they're in BGC in the month of October?

That's what I heard too, Tommyboy. But Exzyle2k seems confident that his contacts with the Forest Preserve will be enough.

The Forest Preserve cops can screw with us all they way. However, if the sun is in the sky above the trees, there's little they can do other than harass us. And if they're going to be back there running their mouths at us, they might as well help haul out the bags of trash.

If I don't hear from the Friends of the Forest Preserve contact by the middle to end of next week, I'll make some phone calls... I'd do so sooner, but I've got an inventory to do at my job, then I go in for a spot of surgery. So it'll have to wait.

Besides... If we're trying to improve the Grove rather than desecrate it further, the cops might be caught off guard.

Last week, some friends & I went to Rubio woods with my accoustic guitars & started jamming away & the flat-footers came by to check us out.  They were friendly & cool but as he left I asked him about BGC because my friends had never been there.  He said that the park closes at sunset & that he had never seen anything before himself. He went on to say that he has been in there 100s of times & that most folks that go there at night are there just to party & vandalize. So, I guess that's the official word BUT my son has been in trouble over here & I asked his Youth Officer & he said that the parks close at midnight.

Things that make you go HHMMMMMMMMM.....................  sere

I walked past the BGC pond today. I didn't see anything but the F.P. police starring at me. gri
