NEXT WEEKEND!!!!

Here is the plan for next weekend! Glad that you can make it! Many of you have expressed wanting to help, and asking what to bring, so here is what we are thinking. Thanks for all the great offers, much appreciated!

Lake Melissa Address:
11302 Dakota Beach Road
Detroit Lakes, Minnesota
56501

Please let me know if you need clearer directions!

Friday night:

Please arrive when you can!

Interested in carpooling? We will try to make it more cost efficient!

Call me (Katie P. 612-968-1555)
or
Katie (612-269-9455)

The plan is to all go to Rhonda Lawrence's home for appetizers and cocktails. She will be providing the food, but we would love to help with the drinks.......

Time: 7:00 or so.

If you would like to bring a bottle of wine or a case of beer, that would be great.

Please let me know if you would like to help.

Bottles of wine (6)
Cases of beer (4)

Saturday:

Breakfast will be provided!

As long as the weather is decent, we plan to spend the day on the boat.

If you would like to bring a snack for the day, great! Here is what we need:

Snacks / appetizers (5 or so..... we will enjoy whatever you bring!)
(Examples: chips, pretzels, fruit, veggies, cheese and crackers....)

Beer (4 cases)
Cases of Water (4)
Cases of pop (3, any flavor)
Speciality Drink (Jo Ann)


On Saturday, we also plan to play a game .....harmless, I promise!
What you need to do is buy one pair of underwear, size 7, that you would buy for yourself, in Katie's size. It will be a game for Katie to try to guess who purchase the pair...... She will then have many new pairs to keep! I feel a drinking game, coming on.......

Some of you are wondering as if to bring a 'bachelorette' gift. I know that Katie would feel that the gift to her will be just being there and enjoying the weekend..... feel free to bring a gift, but it is not necessary.

Saturday night we plan to eat dinner at Zorbaz in Detroit Lakes, and then head out to the Hotel Shoreham. Katie will be dressed in a white tank, so we are asking for the party to be dressed in black. (A black shirt is perfect!) Thanks for playing along... :)

Sunday:

Breakfast at the Detroit Lakes Country Club. You can plan to head home at anytime on Sunday.

Again, sleeping arrangements will be worked out between Katie's parents and her sister-in-law's homes.... thanks for bringing your own towels and pillows. Everyone will have a bed to sleep in, no ma tresses are needed! Thanks for the help! We love lake showers!

If you think of anything else that we missed, please feel free to bring what you want, we appreciate your generosity!

Thanks again for helping with the weekend, we are excited and are glad that you can make it!

Let me know, by e-mailing me if you are willing to help.

See you soon-
