We're looking at purchasing custom (Open Carry) shirts for the bike ride.  $6.25 per shirt.  If you're interested please post your size.  We need to purchase 12 shirts in order to maintain the current price.

Picture?

Picture?

No picture yet.  I'd like to find 12 people first.  Don't think it's going to be too hard.  All we'd need is to come up with a pro open carry phrase and maybe a pic of a handgun.

I kind of like Jerry's picture, not sure how appropriate it is to your message. And alas, I am pretty brokey right now anyway!

[RandyK]

How about these?Lol

[Beerme]

I will try to attend buddy
Wont be there for the bike ride, no bike or cpl, ill try to come to the picnic though

Michigan Open Carry will not be hosting or co-hosting a picnic on this day. The restroom facilities will not be available, the pavilion cannot be rented and there is a scheduled park cleanup taking place on this date.

It is my understanding that there has been a picnic in Warren for the last few years, and I would like to see the tradition continue. However, it must be planned later in the year for everyone's comfort. Perhaps something in late June or early July.

I would still encourage everyone to participate in the bike ride and even to meet up at the park afterward for socializing, but bear in mind there will be cleanup crews there until the afternoon.

 Let me make this clear.  The bathrooms at the facility are widely available.  There are port-o-potties and also a full mens and womens bathroom on site and open to the public.

Thanks for coming Shun.  It was a hell of a lot of work but it was also lots of fun.  It's not everyday I have Mayor Fouts calling me with questions about our events.  

Special thanks goes out to RandyK for cooking his ass off for all of us.  Thanks to Mayor Fouts and the city of Warren for helping us with the event.  Thanks to the commissioner and the Warren PD.  It was nice having so many officials at the picnic.  It allowed them to see what it was about.  Thanks to the Warren city council members whom also attended the picnic.
