Wow, what a huge inventory! I like the idea of an open house for Mem. Weekend.As a follow-up/reminder evite, you may want to mention all the goodies you'll be serving (I'm sure you'll do that).Good luck -- anxious to hear how it goes for you.
 
Wow you put a lot of thought into this and it shows! Can you share with us what the results are for you? Do you already have some you know will come? I find holiday weekends challenging.Editing note: you can remove the apostrophe for "Veterans"
