[Choir] Potluck lunch after Music Sunday? May 15, around 11:30 or noon

[Richard Riley]

Paula Gills left a phone message for me this morning while I was at
meetings at UCM. She said:

1) The weather is not supposed to be good this Sunday, which means that we
would be forced to be inside, which would make Didi's lovely house a bit
small for a large crowd.

2) The "traditional" choir get together, Paula tells me, was on the
Thursday before the last Sunday of the year. The weather is (hopefully)
more predictably good, and there is only a very small amount to rehearse
for the upcoming Sunday service. This year that date would be June 9.

3) Planning something for June gives us more time to coordinate the pot
luck, and takes some of the "heat" off our big upcoming Music Sunday. To
say nothing about the heat of an important church meeting that happens
after this Sunday's service.

All this strongly suggests that this Sunday isn't the best time, but that
June 9 might be. What do you all think?
