We welcome you to dine with us in our backyard!
Join us for a delightful picnic at The War Memorial, where the bonds of community are strengthened amidst laughter, food, and shared experiences. Spread out your picnic blankets on the lush green lawn of our center's grounds, while a DJ plays some of your favorite summer songs. The family can enjoy a variety of yard games to partake in, a bounce house for the kids, and even take home a customized portrait by way of a caricature artist. You will be surrounded by the familiar faces and potential new friends. Either way you'll find yourself immersed in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Gourmet picnic baskets curated by our executive chef team are available for purchase (sales end July 16) but bringing in your own delicious picnic feast is a welcomed option as well. We will have beer, seltzers, wine, and pop available for purchase.
If you are a Veteran or Active Duty, you will have access to four free tickets for you and your guests. This is just a small way for us to say Thank You for your service. Come and spend an evening with us on the back lawn, and connect with the surrounding community!
