This is on rain or shine! If it rains, we'll BBQ and light a fire in the pavilion's fireplace & roast marshmallows! Come join us :)

Wind down the summer with your Get Out Philly friends at a chill potluck BBQ & picnic! Bring your photos & relive your summer adventures with us.

Food:
We'll BBQ and ask everyone to contribute some kind of side dish, beverage, snack or dessert. See the food list for some suggestions.

Activities:
Last summer's field day was a blast, and while it might be a bit too chilly for water balloons, we have a great lineup for fun & some friendly competition...details soon! If you have a great idea for a game or relay, let Amy know.

Pachella Field is right by some of the great trails that run through the Wissahickon; feel free to take a hike and bring your mountain bike! There are also softball fields; bring your glove and a bat if you have one for a late afternoon game.

We'll also have a little presentation about our new non-profit organization! Learn about our mission, projects and programs, get a heads up on our first activities as a non-profit, meet the Board and find out how you can get involved!

What to Bring:
Food! Post what you're bringing in your RSVP, and see the Google Doc food list if you'd like to contribute to the BBQ stuff.

Bring a chair and/or blanket. Kids & families welcome. If you have a decent volleyball net, horseshoes, etc. and would like to bring them, let Amy know!

Donations are, as always, greatly appreciated. Anything we collect over the cost of renting the pavilion will go to our non-profit.

Lots of parking @ Pachella field :)

Food Spreadsheet: If you can bring any of these items, please sign up! Otherwise, just bring a side dish or snack to share, and post what you're bringing in your RSVP.

       It turned out to be a great day! Thanks Amy & Jose for the grill/grilling 
    • Amy
       Good times, thanks everyone for being so patient with the crazy location snafus. Thanks also to Jose for grilling and Tom & Richard for helping to get everything/everyone sorted out. Will have to save the games for next time :) 
    •  The park screwed up the reserved picnic area but we still had fun, Jose was a great grill master and better yet the rain stayed away, wished more people had shown up.
