Twenty-two Freeper members and their families braved the fires and unhealthy air to attend our 6th Annual Picnic at Woodward Park.

This year we were treated to music by Soldiersprayingmom and her husband, Jim. We look forward to having them entertain us again next year.



As usual, the food was excellent. JkPhoto's tri-tip was perfect.

The kids discovered a new use for the cuddle bags given to them by backtothestreets.
Everyone that attended this year was given one of these bags. Thank you, backtothestreets.

Looks like a good time was had by all.
Keep the pictures coming.

Pinging you to our picnic thread.

[Plutarch]

Dang we missed it. If their is a Fresno Freeper ping list, could Plutarch and Mrs. Plutarch please be added?

There’s something vaguely familiar about that picture. I can’t quite place my finger on it.

[ladyinred]

Oh Amy, we totally FORGOT! I am so sorry we missed this!

[JustAmy]

You are now on my Fresno Ping List. :)

You will be pinged to our next Support the Troops Rally. Hope you can make it.

[freekitty]

Can you add me. My husband was born and raised in Fresno and we lived there for a while.

[JustAmy]

:-)



Here's another that should look familiar. :)

[JustAmy]

Of course, I would love to add you to my ping list.

If you ever get back to Fresno, make sure to contact us.

If you are making plans for next year, mark your calendar for the Saturday after Labor Day. It would be great if you could join us.

Sorry that I couldn’t stay. I will be at the next rally.

The picture of the kids is cute.

Thanks for the ping, Amy. Sorry we weren’t able to make this year.
That tri-tip looks delicious. My compliments to the chef.

That tri-tip looks delicious.

It was! I only wish I had room for more.

This was our first freeper picnic and my wife won wind chimes made by a freeper. ;-)

[scripter]

I really like this poster. Having it up at the picnic gave me a chance to talk to my boys about the cost of freedom.

[JustAmy]

I’m hoping that JKphoto has a picture of your wife with the windchimes.

We really enjoyed meeting you and your family. Hope you mark your calendar for next year.

[JustAmy]

I didn’t get any pictures Saturday! :(

I’ve been posting pictures taken by MamaBear and JKPhoto.

Picnics are a wonderful way to get acquainted with other FReepers. Hope you will be able to make it to Fresno next year.

[JustAmy]

We all thought about you on Saturday.

How are you doing? I thought the bad air might have kept you away. It wasn’t very bad at the park and FRiday night we had a slight breeze that helped to clear the air.

[scripter]

And we really enjoyed meeting you and everybody else. Thanks again for everything you did for the kids. They had a great time too.

We definitely want to make it next year.

[mylife]

I agree. I try to attend as many FReeper get together’s as possible. thanks for the invite

[JustAmy]

We hated to see you leave but knew that you did not belong out there. Hope you are feeling much better. We’ll see you in October.

I love that picture of the kids. They all had a great time; I had a tough time getting my two in the car. I thought I would get to take all four of them home. :)
