The fact some or all of the members of a party in a public park are armed should not be of any concern of the PD or the parks department. You would probably have to reserve a pavilion or shelter house for the guests, but the change in pre-emption laws should have relieved the park of that concern.
A get together is something I might be interested in too.
Nope.Just give me a weeks notice and what food to bring. Course with my luck it'll rain. It does still rain doesn't it?
Though you are correct, there will always be some busy body, that's going to make THAT call, requiring a response. If you notify the PD in advance, the dispatch center can inform such people that attendees are doing absolutely nothing wrong and an officer WON'T be coming.
I would be intersted as well depending on dates.
As an FYI, I've seen some event fliers for concerts, etc. at Millrace. Several of them state "NO FIREARMS." Not sure if that is a Millrace restriction or if that is something the event promotors wanted on the ads.
It has to be because of the concert, since Millrace is not privatly owned.
And the weather
No 100 degree days woud be nice
Us old fat guys may melt into our shoes !
