Picnic in the Park Attraction Details
Picnic in the Park
http://www.hosr.org
The first ever Picnic in the Park was a great success as a fundraiser for the Fairmount Park Conservancy as well as a wonderful new feature to the many festivities of the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta. Last year over 200 people showed their support of the Fairmount Park Conservancy and attended the Picnic in the Park. The 2005 Picnic in the Park promises to be even bigger and is happy to announce the beneficiary organization of the event is the Boys & Girls Clubs of Philadelphia for 2005. The 2nd annual Picnic in the Park benefit luncheon will be held on Saturday, October 29, 2005 during the Thomas Eakins Head of the Schuylkill Regatta in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The 2005 Picnic in the Park benefit luncheon will raise funds and awareness for Boys & Girls Clubs of Philadelphia. The mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Philadelphia is to inspire and empower young people, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential to become productive, caring, and responsible citizens. Seating for the event is limited and reservations are required.
