August 25th, 2013, on a gloriously sunny summer day at a pastoral private property, FSTN held its third annual picnic with games, a stand-up comic (one of our own!), and great food. More than 40 people joined us for a celebration of fun and family. Highlights included the whole-body soccer game with a giant seven foot tall soccer ball (apparently this is a horse soccer ball!) and the incredibly delicious fruit trifle. The ladder ball court was active all afternoon, as well as the barbecue grill. A homemade mini-Pentago board game entertained many. And the food just kept coming! Yummy dishes representing so many different cultures and tastes adorned several tables; hardly a crumb was left at the end of the day. And throughout it all there was laughter and good conversation. This year’s picnic will be hard to top next summer; look for the first attempt at our winter gathering…Hope to see you then! |
