I am proud to announce the first annual (or when we feel like it) WKC NorCal meet!!!!!!!!!!!!! This event has been in the works for years and I promised this one should NOT BE MISSED. Come see how "Team Cali" does bbq in the sunshine. The Napa region was chosen so that the Bay Area and Sacramento grillfellas can make it. Please use this thread as the discussion and coordination point. Kudos to Winz for finding us a spot and doing alot of the legwork!

Who: WKC Team Cali, The WKC Bay Area Delegation and guests.

Where: Skyline Wilderness Park located in Napa

When: Saturday May 17, 12:30 pm. Come hungry. The park opens at 8am and closes at 7:00 PM. Some grillfellas will show up at 8am to stake out the spot and start smoking (meat). Some other grillfellas may camp before and/or afterwards.

Cost: Free after $5 parking but please bring food, grills, hammock, and inflatable pool.

Activities:
BBQ
Bocce
Beer
Talking about Webers
Trading grills and bbq paraphenalia.

What? No bags or washers? I hope it is at least gorilla bocce, no court involved... Just a tape measure. :)

OUCH! Please don't, corn bags will play havoc on the legs and bowls... :) Plus all Grilefella's can hit a 13" hole, not a challenge...

I'll be in further North Norcal.  Nephew is graduating from Humboldt State that weekend.  If anything changes, I'll show.

Sounds like fun.  I hope everyone brings a grill or two to show off!!!  Can't wait, wish I could make it.

There is a good chance that I will be there. I have to attend an important event right around there, but not exactly sure what day it will fall on until further notice. So until I find out please count me in. :)

Really hope you can make it. Looking forward to meeting you.

In addition to the activities listed in Gummi's post, the park also has a frisbee golf course for those interested and a very nice hiking trail that leads to a great view of the Napa area.   I will be bringing the corn hole set as well so we don't have to use SJ's to throw beanbags into.  Plenty to keep us entertained. 

Working on a carpool for the Sacramento area WKC gang.  Bringing a large flatbed trailer to haul as many kettles to the event as possible!  Please PM me if you are looking for a ride.

I would encourage any "guests" of the WKC that would like to meet the WKC members and see some cool kettles to join in the event - we would love to have you there!  Cost is $5 per carload to get into the park.

Mark your calendars for May 17th!

Not everyone deserves to know the real you. Let them criticize who they think you are.
