Philly Area GetTogether 6/16 6/17 or ???

EDIT: as of now looks like 6/17 is not good for people, but could do another date.

Wanted to see if there was any interest in a gathering at my house(Close to Willow Grove PA), and a BIG request for some help with a few of my games.....

Is there any interest? Was thinking of Fathers Day Sunday June 17th.
If so, I'll buy some food (cheesesteaks, pizza, hoagies, etc) and some drink (soda/beer) whatever people want!

Reason for my help request...
I have been part of a neighborhood Pig Roast the last few years. Two years it was on my block, so I had my garage set up as an arcade. I asked for help then, many were interested, but was too late of a date for most to make it (PROPS to thebman80 and orion3311 for giving me a hand, Especially since I was doing a 1000 other things at the same time as they were here!)
Last year the roast was a few blocks away so I only took a few games down and put them in a popup tent, it was a very poor display.
This year it is in the same location but I have a MUCH more ambitious plan, but realize I need help to get ready.
I currently have a 5 - 9 working games but a few (4) could use minor repairs (replace joystick, adjust/swap monitor, loose/missing screws, steering pot changed, dip settings changed, swap marquee or bezels.....
And I would love to get a few multi games set up!!!!!
I have some empty cabs, CP's, monitors, 19-1 and 60-1 boards, that added to the list, could make this "pig roast arcade" a HUGE success!

I know I just made that all about my wants..... but I'd be happy to just have people show up, hang out, and swap/repair their items. If some of my games are tuned up and available for the "PigRoast" all the better!
Hope to hear from you all.

There is a game show in Oaks on that same weekend. I'd never hear the end of it if I bugged out on fathers day after being gone all day Saturday. :(
 
From the few responses, looks like that Sunday is not a great choice, no one that can make it yet.
I could do Sat 5/16 in the afternoon(11-5 or so?), but is that day better for people?
The next two weekend I am committed to doing work, (could do a friday evening, but that didnt seem good for people before)

Let me know if people can(and want to) come sometime. Maybe we can find a date.
If not maybe some other time

Hey Ray... I know Jeff had to float a lot of dates to bring his thing together. Its tough when there are a lot of potential attendee's. This time of year seems crazy in general with school letting out, graduation parties and summer parties.

Sorry been away from the site for a little bit...normally I'd be all about it but I am apparently pretty busy this month. This week and this coming weekend is crazy. When is the pig roast?
