2016 Adirondack M&G - Pot Luck Dinner

Poppy & Nana · 08-22-2016, 12:54 PM

Hello to everyone attending the 2016 Adk Meet & Greet @ Nick's Lake State Campground, Old Forge, NY

This post is to inform everyone of Saturday night’s Pot-Luck Dinner and to provide a way for individuals to sign-up / identify (via a reply to this post) what they would like to bring as a dish to pass.

As has been done at other M&Gs, grilling will be by your own choice, and people can sign-up to bring an entrée as their dish to share / pass .

Saturday night’s Pot-Luck Dinner will consist of:
Everyone is to:
> provide their own drinks and place settings,
> bring a dish to pass.
> grilling by their own choice – but at previous M&Gs the shared dishes has provided more than enough food.

Dishes to share / pass may include (see sign-up list below):
> Entrées
> Salads & Side Dishes
> Desserts

Suggested Serving Size of Shared Dishes: since there’s currently 8 sites, 16 people I would guess that enough to serve 6-8 people should be sufficient.

We do have a reserved M&G Site #54 (Loop C) - we will need to borrow tables from surrounding campsites (we are on 53 - ours can be taken). I would think we only need 4 or 5 tables max. Let me know if we can take yours from your site!

Pot-Luck Dinner Schedule:
> We’ll plan to start eating dinner at 6:30 pm.

If anyone has any food allergies, please post them so everyone knows and can take them into consideration when making their dish to pass.

Please sign-up for what you would like to bring as a dish to pass as a reply to this post.

I’ll try to keep a running list to make it easy to identify what slots are available to sign-up for.

Baked beans w/ bacon for sure. We have picked 80+ pints of blueberries and the raspberries are coming along well. Does anyone want a fruit salad? I'd bake but not sure about camper oven... have not tested it out on baked goods.

We're at Nicks and they have a bear problem this year. They don' t want any coolers outside at any time and no cooking or eating outside after dark.

I recommend changing the time on Friday snacks and Saturday pot luck to 5:30 so we can have the food put away by 7:00.

Now that is funny I live here and have not heard of any bear calls up at Nick's....

But to be safe we'll change to 5:30pm.......
