MNA Annual Picnic 

It's almost time for the annual picnic in the park; This year we are planning an Italian 
theme (with lots of vegetarian options) and all dishes guaranteed to have you singing 
arias! As always, we need volunteers to make it happen; please help  if you can.  Just 
a couple of hours of your time can be the difference between a terrific feast, oceans 
of camaraderie, and well, no picnic :( .
 
 We  have a signup available online--just follow the link below

All current member of the MNA are eligible to attend at no charge; visitors may 
partake for a nominal fee of $10 per person.

Remember, you can sign up for membership on the spot!

For those who have never attended the MNA picnics, this is a lot of fun and a great 
chance to meet other people in the neighborhood.  The picnic is hosted for MNA 
members, but you can join at the picnic or simply pay on a per-person basis (although 
members have priority in line to make sure we don't run out of food).

Also, please consider volunteering... Randee has done a great job of hosting the picnics 
over the past several years and could use any help she can get.
