Potluck - MacPeople will supply some entrees (meat), and provide coffee and soft drinks, plates, cups, napkins and ice. We ask that attendees bring some sort of dish, whether an entree, side dish (salad, veggies, potato, rice, bread, chips), or a dessert.

We plan on having some sort of raffle/prize drawing, but we're still working out the prizes.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
