Not sure what a Sharkie is, but before I plan the 4 hour trip: is this a family event aka are kids welcome? Don't know if I would bring hubby and kid along for such a long trip. She would definitely need to burn energy after a car trip that long.

Absolutely! We had many kids here last time! I think we have had many kids at each one. They love the raffle and there are usually raffle donations geared toward kids too.

Very family friendly group. All are welcome.

At April's last time, remember that nice family who brought the tractor? He was giving the kids ride, heck, I wanted a ride on a tractor, too!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, and we had stuff in the raffle for kids - Member Karen's daughter won the Justin Bieber blanket?? HAHAHA

Yes, the kids still talk about the tractor rides. Karen's kids love to help with the raffle and they always seem to win things... hhhmmmmm!?!

We have a very large field behind where the chickenstock will be set up. Great visibility, large grassy hill (to tire them out) We will have some toys / activities like, baseball, soccer balls etc...I am sure we'll have more.

My daughter is 15 and my son is 12, old enough to "help out" and my son is very active, Tabs girls absolutely LOVE him... he seems to be the human junglegym for them

We do have a road between my house and my field. In my experience everyone is good at being responsible about their own kiddos and everyone keeps an eye out for each other anyway.
Others who have been here can also describe it for you, sonew, chickenstalker, jerseygirl already shared her thoughts, anyone else..... there were many

. The idea is layed back, backyard BBQ with crazy chicken peeps feel. We can eat good food, sell some chickens & eggs, swap some stuff, win some great raffle items and get together with like minded folks. Heck I like some of these people better then some mmbers of my extended family

A Sharkie refers to an old thread on BYC that we all met up on that was shut down a few years ago (started after bidding on BLRW?). Many of us have kept in touch and have an annual chickenstock to meet up. Lots of fun and friends!


April do you have any plans on food yet? Grilling again? If so I would like to bring a couple bags of Hoffmann hotdogs, a salad of some sort, and cookies.

 

[sonew123]
