2022 Annual FAN Summer Picnic on Aug 21

Picture
The annual FAN summer picnic returns to Washington Park and YOU are invited to join in the fun! This free, family-friendly event is an annual tradition with friends and neighbors gathering on the grassy expanse behind the Community Center.

Sunday, August 21, 4:30-7:30 p.m.
Washington Park, 2025 Washington St. 
Bring your own picnic, blanket or chairs. 


  • Live music provided by Rob Tobias and Friends and the Never Ever Band
  • Enjoy a free root beer float served by Friendly Street Church of God! 
  • Games for the young and young at heart
  • Community Walkway of community organization outreach tables
  • Prize drawings for gifts from neighborhood businesses
  • Make Your Mark Banner - give us your feedback on Friendly neighborhood

This year we will be co-hosting the picnic with our adjacent neighborhood association, Southwest Hills Neighborhood Association (SHiNA). 

Tighten up your sandals for races for the young and young at heart! The games will happen following the first set of music, and there might even be prizes!! The park's spray play will also be operating to keep everyone cooled off and entertained.
Come learn what is going on in our community.

The
community walkway offers opportunities to talk with representatives from community partners and nonprofits that benefit our neighborhood and community. You can learn what FAN and SHiNA neighborhood associations are up to and how you might become involved. Get your burning questions answered and share your comments about the work being done in the community.


Be sure to sign-in to receive a ticket for drawings for gifts from our wonderful neighborhood businesses. Our area businesses are a vital link in supporting a healthy and vibrant community, and we thank them for their donations to the picnic. (A complete list of donors will be shared at the picnic.)

Last but not least, look for the large, blank Make Your Mark paper banner to accept all your thoughts about our neighborhood association, what do we do well, what would you like to see happening, how can we improve and better engage. Your thoughts will help strengthen our neighborhood association.​
