Wow, 19 years! We have grown from a small picnic with about 40 people to a mega event with 500+ for 5 years and back to a picnic for about 35 people. We went from burgers and pot luck to a catered event and back to chicken and potluck and last year a "bring your own picnic".
Tropical storms or beautiful weather, we've had a picnic the last 18 years, most on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, so let's keep the tradition alive.
Once again we'll be at Newport News Park. We've reserved picnic shelter #8 behind the Ranger Station just off Constitution Way in Newport News Park.
BYOP (Bring Your Own Picnic) Sadly we will NOT be doing a potluck again this year. Show us your geocaching picnic style. Prizes for the Best Traditional Picnic, Best Gourmet Picnic and Most Inventive/Creative Picnic.
