Sunday, August 15, 2010 from 10am till 6pm.
Park is open from 7am till dusk.

The picnic site is heavily wooded, with huge stone grills and picnic
tables. Adjacent to the picnic site are parking and grassy fields. Nearby
(five to ten minute walk) are the swimming beach, concession stand, and
bathhouse. The entire Blue Hill Reservation is available for anyone
who wants to recreate away from the picnic.

Please bring stuff to share, and a note with what the food is so
that people with restrictive diets can deal with that. Also we will
need volunteers to bring common use items, such as charcoal, grills,
lighter fluid, condiments, plates, flatware, and so on.

Bring bug spray and sunblock, folding chairs if you have them, games to
play, and your own fun selves. If anyone has an EZ-up type tent they can
bring, that would be very nice.

This picnic is open to the entire fannish community in the greater
Boston area. There is no rain date, and unless the weather is really
bad, plan to go on rain or shine... ANd it looks like shine in the long
range forecast.
