I thought your menu for June was just fine and I say more of the same.
Burgers, Hot Dogs, Steak, sandwiches, stew, chili, whatever are all ok with
me.  My only special request is sweet iced tea!  Get K4SZ to teach you how
he makes it if you don't know how.  Anyway, just put something together paul
and post it on the reflector just like you did for June.  Asking these guys
for an opinion and getting consensus is like hearding cats.  I know!  Just
say this is the menu and ask everyone to RSVP so you will have a head count.
I can hardly wait.  CQ Contest!
