I think the trail you mentioned for Saturday will work out well. I checked the conditions online and they look good for this week. Starting around seven should help us avoid the crowds and find parking without trouble. I can bring sandwiches and some fruit for everyone. Make sure to wear sturdy shoes since there might be muddy spots near the creek. The elevation gain is moderate so we can keep a comfortable pace. I will text you Friday evening to confirm the meeting time. Let me know if you want to invite anyone else from the group. The loop route you picked should take about three hours with a short break at the overlook. I have a map saved on my phone in case the signage is unclear near the ridge section. We can grab coffee after if people are interested. Let me know what you think about stopping at that bakery along the way home.

I looked into the park shelter reservation for next month and the one near the playground is still open for the date we discussed. It has enough tables for about twenty people and there are grills available if we want to cook. I think a potluck style would work well where everyone brings a dish to share. I can handle organizing drinks and paper goods. The shelter has power outlets so we can bring a speaker for background music. Let me know if you want me to go ahead and book it for the full day. I can also pick up some charcoal and lighter fluid for the grills. We should plan to arrive early to secure the space and start the coals before everyone arrives. Let me know what you think about the timing for the afternoon.
