The mumbleteenth annual St Louis ACS Section picnic is coming on Sunday, September 7th (the weekend after Labor Day). This is a little later in the season than usual, which is probably a good move toward slightly cooler temps. We think it’s the nineteenth picnic, but we kind of lost track during pandemic hiati (hiatuses?).
The venue this year is the South Shelter in Shaw Park, Clayton, Missouri. It will start at 11 a.m. and continue as long as there is interest. Follow the fat red arrow in the map below to the “S. Shelter”. There is limited parking along Shaw Park Drive at the south edge of the park, and lots of parking in parking lots off Mark Twain Circle at the north edge of the park — just a short, shady stroll from the South Shelter.
The Section will provide beef hot dogs and hamburgers, buns, condiments, drinks (beer, NA beer, and soft drinks), with brownies and cookies for dessert, and conversation throughout. If you would like to bring a salad of any sort (fruit, tossed, macaroni, slaw, whatever) to share, please feel free, but that’s completely optional. Lawn game equipment, too: if you got ’em, bring ’em.
We hope to see everyone there. Spouses/SOs and kids are all welcome. Just please RSVP to Jim Bashkin with the total number attending (and how many of you are ACS members).
