3:30ish - Cruise and pictures
Jarod (thefastredone) is planning the route and will post it once he goes out and drives it. We will likely be stopping a couple places to take some pictures as well! The route will be posted here and I will have the route to hand out as well.

This is kind of up to everyone what they want to do and also the weather. There is a Putt-putt/go-kart/etc..place that we went to last year which is along the cruise route somewhat.

There is also a pool hall in downtown Columbia, there is also a Bowling alley nearby.

I figure this is fairly inexpensive, and most anyone can get what they want there..subject to change though.
