ROYALSTON – The Village Kiosk will be the perfect location in Royalston this Saturday as the South Village Revitalization Committee sponsors a picnic in the park from noon to 3 p.m. Families can bring their own picnic or buy lunch bags from the nearby village store. Music will be provided by Ryan Hood.
The event is touted as an opportunity to socialize with neighbors or, if you’re new to town, to meet new friends. The event will take place rain or shine and six to eight pop-up tents or umbrellas will be provided. Participants are also encouraged to bring their own shelters.
A sanitary block accessible to people with disabilities will be available and donations to the Flush Fund would be appreciated. Checks can be sent to RSVRC, c / o Rose Lawrence, 9 Dickey Road, Royalston MA 01368. Donations will also be accepted on the day of the event.
The village store lunches can be pre-ordered by calling 978-249-9798. Offers include Yogi Bear Bag (Turkey), Boo Boo Bear Bag (Ham), Jellystone Bag (Tuna), and Ranger Smith Bag (Roast Beef). A vegetarian sandwich, the Cindy Bear Bag, will also be available. All sandwiches will be served with cheese and lettuce on an 8 inch roll. Pre-orders must be placed before Friday, although orders will be accepted on the day of the event. The bags cost between $ 8 and $ 10. Hot dogs and burgers will also be available.
Finnish pastries made by LuAnn Similia and Joyce Neale will also be available, as will craft beer from Honest Weight Artisan Beer from Orange.
