Enjoy these random photos from The Wellington Ward Memorial Day Picnic
With approximately 300 attendees, perfect, and I mean perfect weather, along with awesome people on my committee and in attendance, the Annual Memorial Day Picnic was incredible. One of the gauges I use is that at ending time today, no one was leaving. Everyone was enjoying the music, food, and fun in the very best Florida Memorial Day Weather I have every experienced. No humidity yet! This is unheard of for Memorial Day in Florida!
The Basic Agenda is:
Softball Game (HP vs EQ) We added the Women vs Girls today
Flag Ceremony
Salute to the Veterans in our Group (I have them come up front during the Flag Ceremony, Pledge, and The Star Spangled Banner sung by the group)
Lunch- Lots of Burgers and Dogs, etc
Live Band Performance (members of our Ward)
Games: Pie Eating Contest (we have a 4 year champion)
Tug O War
Egg Toss
Volleyball
Face Painting
Kiddie Games (ie. Duck Pond, Lollipop Pull, et)
Hula Hoop Contest
Bubble Gum Blowing
Relays (i.e. wheel barrow, 3 legged, etc)
In the planning and implementing of this annual event, my goal is to meet the needs of the wide variety in age and interest. This is a fun project and I am grateful to have so many dedicated people to work with.
