Dance community Picnic - Saturday July 16

Hi all- What are you doing this Saturday- july 16? If you are in town, I hope you can join us for a picnic at Potter Park (1301 S Pennsylvania Ave*) in Lansing. Bonnie has reserved the “Penguin Cove” pavilion- I think it is the first shelter, (after the entrance booth) after you drive up the long drive to the park. There is a small parking area right next to the Penguin Cove shelter.

Note - Last I knew, part of Pennsylvania Ave was closed - both directions- from Mt. Hope South to Alpha Access (by the Ortho Hospital). So you’ll need to approach the park from the either Mt. Hope (south of Potter Park) or Kalamazoo St which is North of Potter Park

We’ll start to gather about 4:30pm, plan to eat around 5:30, and I hope to have at least one grill going and ready for burgers, hot dogs or veggie burgers. Please bring your table setting, and a dish to share- this can be as simple as a bag of chips or you could make a salad or dessert. We’ll provide ketchup, mustard and relish- other fixins will be on your own. We’d also appreciate it if you could bring a few bucks to help cover the cost of reserving the picnic shelter.

Potter Park is part of the Ingham County Park system. Residents of Ingham county can drive in and park a car for $3. Those who live outside Ingham pay $5. A yearly park pass is available for $32. Lansing has dozens of lovely parks - maybe a pass would be a good investment for you this year.

Note - there is no charge to ride your bike into the park and there are bike racks available.

If you are around, hope you can join us.
