Our Parish Picnic is Sunday, August 30th from 12pm-3pm - we can’t wait to see you there!
The Annual Parish Picnic returns on August 30th from 12pm-3pm on the Holy Redeemer Parish grounds. Bring the whole family and enjoy a signature BBQ presented by the Knights of Columbus and potluck by parishioners. Back again this year are snow cones and popcorn.
Activities for kids include face painting, crafts, bounce house, water slide and games on the south lawn with Fr. Nathe. Adults will enjoy a free raffle for amazing prizes donated by local businesses and parishioners, BINGO and of course, fellowship.
The entire event is free to all, thanks to the generosity and donations from the Knights of Columbus, every family bringing a potluck dish, our volunteers who help put on the event and those who have donated prizes for this year’s picnic.
New this year ~ we are planning on TWO large canopies on the lawn for extra seating. We will have some chairs, but if you have a favorite picnic chair, bring it along.
Do you have a new or nearly new item or gift cards for the raffle or BINGO prizes? Please bring items to the Parish Office Mon-Fri between 9am-4pm or contact Judy McMorine at judym@holyredeemervanc.org.
