Annual Summer Picnic
Aug 12, Sun {AK} Annual Summer Picnic. Gather with North Star friends for an evening of great food and shared summer memories and conversation. This popular event will be held again from 4:30-7:00 p.m. at Hidden Falls Park, 1415 Mississippi River Blvd S in St. Paul. Be sure to use the northern, Magoffin Ave entrance to the park. Meet at 4:30 with food being served at 5:00. The picnic is our way of catching up with club members we've perhaps not seen much of during the busy summer months.
To continue our tradition of reducing trash, please bring your own recyclable/reusable plates, napkins, utensils and cups. This year the club will be providing two entrees: a meat dish (probably pulled pork or chicken) and a yet-to-be-decided vegetarian dish. We ask that you bring a potluck offering, preferably something homemade or a quality deli item, to share with at least eight to ten people. Couples are asked to bring two items. Use your last name as a guide for what to bring: A-F, appetizer; G-L, entree; M-R, side dish or salad; S-Z, dessert.
There are electrical outlets in the shelter for crock pots and warming plates. Non-alcoholic beverages are provided by the club. Additional picnic details will be posted in the e-Loype an on our website, www.north-stars.org. Be sure to watch for these postings as we look for other ways to make this event both fun and memorable. FFI: Mel Peterson, 651-776-4330 or alphamel52@comcast.net.
