Guild Picnic: August 21st at DeBroux Park, Bellevue

By: Paula Martens

You’ve heard of the saying "Christmas in July”. Well, the Guild will be having “Christmas in August”. Last year’s Guild Christmas party, scheduled for December 11, 2010, was cancelled at the last minute due to a severe snowstorm. Therefore, the prizes that would have been given away in December are still waiting to be given away. So….all prizes will be go during the summer picnic instead. The Guild will provide brats, burgers, buns, condiments and beverages. Members attending the picnic are asked to bring a dish to pass (i.e.: salad, fruit salad, chips/ dip, dessert— your choice).

PLEASE RSVP by August 14th to Jane Alesch at 920.468.0132 or jbalesch@att.net if you plan to attend so we know how many members to plan for and we can purchase an appropriate amount of food and supplies.

We hope you plan to attend. Come and enjoy a burger, brat and cool drinks. Spend just an hour….spend a few hours, as long as you like. The picnic provides a casual environment for everyone to gather and enjoy a good time.
