Hi Neighbors! Is your street hosting a National Night Out party? Do you need napkins or paper plates?

We have some left over from the last couple summer picnics and we’d love for them to be used!

They are in a bin by the little free library north of the park on Cromwell Avenue. Feel free to take what you need for your neighborhood gathering. 🎉

Please leave the bin - just take the napkins and paper plates—thanks!

What a fantastic evening at our annual park picnic! Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the great food, wonderful company, and the chance to catch up with so many friendly neighbors. And of course… giant dinosaurs! 🦖 How can you beat that?

A big thank you to all the volunteers who helped make this event such a success. We love seeing our community come together and can’t wait to do it again next year!

Our baseball hats are back in fresh new colors for the 2026 Summer Picnic. But here’s the catch… quantities are limited. Get there early to purchase yours!

We’ve also added a fun new twist to this year’s picnic T-shirt design and style options! We’re keeping it a surprise for now, you’ll want to see these in person!

We are looking for someone with a vehicle and trailer who can handle two inflatable blow-ups for our picnic at the park on Tuesday, July 14.

This would include picking them up (close to the airport), transporting them to the park, setting them up, taking them down after the event, and returning them. The times for pickup and return are somewhat flexible the day before and the day after the event.

If you have the equipment and are available to help, please comment below or send a message. We would greatly appreciate it!
