Description

Come on up to SPRING PARK and join us for a PARANORMAL PUMPKIN PICNIC !!

Cross the Burke County line West of Hickory and take Exit 116 .... follow signs to East Burke High School and across from the school you'll see SPRING PARK.

SPRING PARK is a beautiful park with an upper level parking lot and BIG picnic shelter ! Down the hill to the lower level is a small handicapped parking lot and a paved loop trail around the park with picnic tables. There are offshoot trails, bridges, gazebos and wildlife viewing areas as well as exercise stations, playgrounds and swings !

We are in the early planning stages, but here's what we have so far.......

Event Start time : 11 AM

We are asking that everyone bring PICNIC food.... (nothing that needs to be cooked)...
Sandwich meat, cheeses, bread, rolls, condiments, chips, cheese doodles (Dina B's personal favorite), Macaroni salad, potato salad, Fruit trays, veggie trays, cakes, brownies, cookies. Soda, iced tea, lemonade.
We'll also need paper plates, napkins, plastic silverware, disposable cups.
