James is planning on bringing cheese and crackers, and possibly also some fruit juices for the potluck :)
Reminder/Clarification: I *think* we're doing an abbreviated practice tonight between the potluck and ringing for the 1812. Laura or Austin, feel free to correct me...On Sat, Jun 30, 2018 at 9:08 PM, <lauradi rcn com> wrote:Could be OK. Neighbors? Anybody who has lived there for long will expect ringing during the concert. Anybody recent will be used to us finishing at 9.

If the 1812 is going to be that late, is there any reason why we can’t get in an hour or so of regular practice?

Anybody want to volunteer to be the source of the concert? I am willing to buy a compatible speaker if needed (if nobody wants to do so, I'll figure out how to use Arthur's phone. Advice welcome).
> Alison can't eat dairy products. Arthur and I are vegetarians, and I don't cope well with the bell pepper family. Any other restrictions we should know about? Any nut allergies? Soy? I was considering bringing deviled eggs, but the chances of getting them there on the T without disaster seem slim. Back-up plan includes the aforementioned peanuts and soybeans (and wheat. And other stuff).
