I think we should go with the sign-up sheet approach rather than asking eve=
ryone to bring a specific dish. It works better when people can choose what=
 they are comfortable making. The park pavilion is reserved for Saturday th=
e 15th and I have confirmed we have access from 11am to 6pm. We will need t=
o set up tables and chairs which the parks department provides but we have =
to arrange ourselves. If you can be there by 10 to help that would be great=
. I was thinking we could have a few main dishes and then let people fill i=
n with sides and desserts based on what they like to cook. Sarah mentioned =
she would bring her baked ziti and Tom said he would do a large salad. For =
drinks we can ask everyone to bring their own or we could collect a couple =
dollars per person and buy in bulk which might be simpler. Let me know what=
 you think about the timing and whether the sign-up approach works for the =
group.

The weather forecast looks good for that day with only a slight chance of a=
fternoon showers. We do have the pavilion roof covering the main area so ev=
en if it rains we should be fine. We will need about eight tables to accomm=
odate everything and I can bring extra folding chairs from home. If anyone =
has dietary restrictions we should note those on the sign-up sheet so peopl=
e can plan accordingly.

The issue with the paint not adhering properly is most likely due to the su=
rface not being clean enough before you started. Even if it looked clean th=
ere could be residue from cleaning products or natural oils from hands that=
 prevent proper bonding. What I would suggest is lightly sanding the proble=
m areas with fine-grit sandpaper then wiping down with a mild soap solution=
 and letting it dry completely before applying a primer. The primer really =
makes a difference on surfaces that have been previously painted or might h=
ave contaminants. You might also want to check the humidity levels when you=
 painted because if it was too humid that can cause adhesion problems too. =
For the trim work I have found that using a high-quality angled brush gives=
 much cleaner lines than tape though it takes a steady hand. If you want to=
 try again this weekend I could come over and help with the sanding and pre=
p work.

Also I wanted to mention that the hardware store on Main Street carries a b=
rand of primer that I have had good results with. It is a bit more expensiv=
e than the standard stuff but it bonds well to tricky surfaces. Let me know=
 if you want me to pick up a gallon for you when I go there tomorrow aftern=
oon.
