FRIENDSHIP PICNIC IN THE PARK

We are very excited to get together with the Newcomer Families. Thank you to the 16 people from Edmonton West who have already signed up. I encourage you to bring your family along, your kids, and grandkids. There will be time to have a relaxing chat to fellow Rotarians and make friends with some newcomers to Edmonton. The picnic area has picnic and is covered. 

I will be asking attendees to bring a dish to share, and something to drink. Burgers, hot dogs, buns and condiments will be provided. 

It's been a long time since we could all get together. So come on....sign up....and lets have a great time!!

FRIENDSHIP PICNIC IN THE PARK

Saturday July 23rd @ 4:00 pm

Laurier Park ~ Picnic Site #6

13221 Buena Vista Rd NW, Edmonton, AB T5J 2R7

Part of Rotary's mission is to provide service to others, promote integrity, and advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through fellowship. We have a wonderful opportunity, through our connection with the Edmonton Mennonite Newcomers Centre, to meet a group of newcomers to Edmonton and enjoy a picnic together. This will be a family event and I encourage you all to bring your families too!

Through our hands-on volunteering we don't often get to connect with the people who use these service organizations. We do vital work, but don't get the chance to sit down and listen to their stories. I am really excited to get that chance! Through this experience we can create a supportive environment that can foster open communication and shared learning. 

The food will be pot luck and burgers and hot dogs will be provided. More details will be forthcoming when people have signed up.

Cheers,

Annie
