Thanks for all the interest around the Picnic in the Park idea! Here's the details, hope to see you there!

Date: 12 December 2010
Time: 1pm
Location: Commonwealth Park Amphitheatre (more info below)
Please bring: A plate of something yummy. A picnic blanket. Hats and sunscreen. Any bikes, balls, or frisbees you want.
Who is welcome: Girl geeks, partners, children, and friends. We're suspending the rules for this one.
Cost: A smile :)

No need for an RSVP. Just show up.

Getting there:
The Commonwealth Park Amphitheatre is on the north side of Lake Burley-Griffin. There is ample parking available on Constitution Ave, in between Coranderrk St and Anzac Ave. You can then walk through the tunnel that runs under Parkes Way. When you get to the other side, turn right, and you will see a big concrete fort. We'll be hanging around there.

Despite my very best attempts, I have apparently failed to secure a sponsor for one last GGD for 2010. That said, I'd love to get everyone together for one last hurrah this year. How do you all feel about a casual Christmas-themed picnic by the lake? Everyone can bring a plate of something yummy to eat, we'll make sure we have a few balls to kick around, kids and bikes are most welcome.

I know it's a busy time of year, so I've got a few possible dates for you to choose from.

Let me know if you're interested by choosing the best dates for you. Also, if you have any suggestions for how you would like this event to look, drop them in the comments!

UPDATE 10 November 2010:
