Sunshine, Smiles, and Summer Fun at Our 54th Annual Picnic!

What a perfect day to celebrate summer! Eighty-five members and guests joined us for our 54th Annual Summer Picnic, enjoying beautiful weather, delicious food, and wonderful fellowship at our new location at Camp Harkness.

The menu featured hamburgers, hot dogs, tasty sides, desserts, and a refreshing surprise from Mini Melts Ice Cream. Fresh popcorn and cotton candy made their picnic debut, while everyone’s favorite Bingo kept the fun going. Adding a colorful touch to the festivities were the whimsical hot air balloons handcrafted by members and volunteers, floating overhead and bringing smiles to all.

Events like this don’t happen without an incredible team of volunteers. Our heartfelt thanks go to the Picnic and Set-Up Committees and everyone who pitched in to make the day such a success. A special thank-you to Phil and Joann for providing tables, chairs, popcorn and cotton candy machines, and the power to keep everything running. We’re also grateful to our grill master, Janet LaBonté, Renée’s mom, for serving up a delicious meal, and to Mini Melts of Norwich for generously donating 150 cups of ice cream.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s picnic such a joyful celebration. We can’t wait to do it again next summer!
