Hey Jen, I saw your message about the weekend trip. I think we should leave by 8am on Saturday to avoid traffic. I can pick up the snacks and drinks if you grab the cooler and chairs. Also, did you confirm with Mark whether he's bringing his kayak? The weather looks clear but we should have a backup plan if it rains maybe we can head to that new board game cafe downtown. Let me know if you want to adjust the departure time. I'll bring the portable speaker and a blanket. We can stop for lunch in that town near the lake around noon. I'll send a list of gear later tonight.

About the community cleanup next weekend I think we should start at 9am at the park entrance. We can split into three groups one for the trails one for the playground area and one for the parking lot. I'll bring trash bags and gloves. Could you ask around for a couple of grabber tools? We might need those for the creek bank. Also we should arrange a drop‑off spot for the collected items. The city said they can pick up the bags on Monday if we leave them by the main road. Let me know if you want to meet earlier to set up the sign‑in table. I can bring a coffee urn and some pastries.
