Bay Area picnic June 1st (Sunday) at Ed Levin Park (Milpitas)

We have reserved a partially shaded picnic spot (‘Spring Valley’, picture below) at the Ed Levin Park in Milpitas for our Sunday Picnic. The event starts at 11am. We have a decent sized crowd with many first timers. If you are interested in attending, please respond to this survey ASAP. The weather forecast is not very sunny, so it should be a lot of fun. This is a great opportunity to know other XLers in the Bay Area & their families. Please spread the word to other Bay Area XLers. If this meet is a success we will have the momentum for future meet ups too.

More detailed information will be sent to all confirmed attendees by Saturday morning.

Regards,
Tipu
