Summary

Members considered proposed September 2027 picnic dates and potential conflicts with youth softball championships and Stanford football; they decided to reserve several Saturdays (including 09/11 and 09/18) to preserve options.

Committee members reviewed a request to confirm a 2027 picnic date after receiving an inquiry from a resident (Cindy) who needed dates cleared for a private event. Members evaluated athletic schedules and noted that youth softball playoffs and championships typically occupy fields in mid-September; Committee member (S2) explained the softball championship would fall on the third Sunday, often constraining available Saturdays.

To preserve options the group agreed to hold several Saturdays as contingencies and to ask Cindy to reserve the requested date while the committee reserves the Saturdays preceding it. Committee member (S4) said she would follow up with Cindy about reserving the 25th and holding earlier Saturdays for potential use; the committee did not finalize a single 2027 date and left flexibility to account for field fencing and league schedules.
