[Rich Goodwin]

Any activities would be worth while.  Several years ago there were folks
playing chess - there are tables available to do so again. 

Check out the linuxpicnic.org site ... add activities you wish to
add ....

I am working on a proposal and my time is extremely limited this wewk.
Fplks, please update the East coast section as appropriate.
