nice, good luck with the transfer. im also in brentwood so let me know if you need any help. i would take a few cups of the old sand to help seed the new one.
i usually run my generators once a month. i will put a tiny bit of fuel in it, then just let it run dry. only takes a few mins. starting it once in a while is so much easier than having to dump old gas and clean the carb.
i remember a few years back there was a frag swap at someone's house. is there a reason it can't be held in someone's garage? that 3k the club would save can go towards equipment or something. just a thought
