The John W. Sellars – Lebanon Chapter of TOS is having a cookout on Saturday, 19 May 2018 at shelter #4 in Cedars of Lebanon State Park. We are also planning to shuttle, or carpool, folks to see some of Wilson County’s birding hotspots. We’ll look for grasshopper sparrow, lark sparrow, dickcissel and more. Be at the Nature Center parking lot no later than 7:30 AM to join in on the early morning birding action.

For the cookout, please bring whatever meat you wish to eat, and a side dish. We’ll have grills going so unless you’re bringing a pot roast, bring it raw. And if you plan on coming, please complete the online form and let us know how many will be in your party and what side dish you’re bringing. We’re hoping to avoid a dozen different kinds of potato salad and one cherry pie, so the list will be posted here on the website as it develops. The sign-up form is here:

The plan is to fire up the grills at 11:00 AM or so, and we’ll eat about 11:30.

Shelter #4 is located on the right side of WPA Road near the Cedar Forest Lodge. If you are facing the Cedar Forest Lodge from the road, Shelter #4 is off to the right back in the trees. The gravel road leading to the 2-mile running trail runs right by Shelter 4.

Side dishes will be:

• macaroni coleslaw
• corn & black bean salad
• vegetable platter

Desserts will be:

• Chocolate Cherry Surprise
• Pecan pie

Drinks will be:

• Milo’s tea (sweetened)
• Milo’s Tea (unsweetened)
• water

We look forward to seeing you Saturday morning for some fun birding and the picnic. Please join us if you can, and bring a friend too.
