EDIT: Because of the Parklife Festival being held at Birrarung Marr, there has had to be a change of location.

The new location is the Alexander Avenue Barbies. A map is provided below, as well as some written directions and a place to meet other deviants if you're unsure.


-=-=-=-=-=-

So, feel bad you missed out on some bowling? Would you like some snags in the sunshine next to the Yarra while watching a bunch of deviants play violent hacky? Or take part in some games and possibly win some dA-related prizes?

Well the *crikey meet is for you!


Details: [EDITED]

Where: Alexandra Avenue BBQ's [on the Yarra river] (directions below)
When: This Saturday, the 22nd of September.
Time: Meet at Flinders Street Station at 1pm [we will hover there for about 15 mins for other people to rock up]
What to bring: Gold goin donation, hat, rug to sit on, cameras, art gear, various balls, friends!
What's happening:
1. we meet up outside flinders street station, just south of the southern ticket validation entry at the station.

2. After approximately 15 minutes, we will make our way down the Princes Bridge to St Kilda Road.

3. When we reach Alexandra Avenue - turn left there, and keep walking til we reach the Yarra, and seek out the first BBQ's we find that are free. [in fact one or two of the organisers may be waiting there for us.]

4. we eat! nobody can resist a good feed. yum yum. [those bringing their own meat - please provide your own bread as well, and those eating our meat, dont forget to bring donation coins. If you would like to donate, even though you are bringing your own meat, that would be helpful too, since we are trying to support our local clubs with subscriptions.]

5. after lunch, we will discuss ideas on where to hold our games, but it might be ideal to walk to Alexandra Gardens, and meet up at the toilet area [since there are no toilets near the BBQ area, it might be useful to those who are busting!!]

6. get involved in games. We will be having games such as:
--- Celebrity heads.
--- Speed Sketching. [organised by *meikahidenori ]
--- races of sorts.. to be announced..
--- and other cool games!!!

I think it's pretty important to stress the gold coin donation, as `astarsia is generously supplying the food. Also, if you wanna bring food of your own, or other stuff to cook on the barbie, go right ahead.


So, wanna come? Go here to check up on all the details and go say that you want to go. Notifying is crucial if you want to get some hot food. :B


Directions: (kindly nicked from `astarsia's journal )





We'll see you all there!
