Hi all,

Hard to believe that it could be picnicking weather this week, but the forecast is holding steady for it to be sunny on Sunday! Cross your fingers! And don't forget to sign up on the wiki page, below, with what you are bringing. 

We need food, drinks, snacks, desserts etc, plus plates, cups and games. Does anyone have a croquet set? :)

Also: if you're driving, remember memorial drive is closed to cars on Sunday.

See you soon,
Phoebe

Hi Richard and all, 

Thanks!! Yes: it looks like July 16, Sunday, is the best day. How about 1-5p on Sunday? Here's the wiki page: 

Following a suggestion by Joseph Reagle, let's try Cambridge this year - specifically JFK park in Harvard Square. JFK park borders Memorial Drive, which is closed on Sundays in summer to vehicular traffic, so it is a pleasant place to stroll, bicycle, etc. The closest T stop is Harvard Sq., a few blocks away. Map:  

Hope to see you all there!

Hi Wiki-Bostonians,

It looks like Sunday July 16 is the most favored date.

I look forward to taking the bus up from NYC to join :)

Should we set up a page on-wiki?

Thanks,
Richard

Dear all, 

It's that time of year again - the great American Wiknic! This year the main Wiknic dates are July 8-9. However, I've made a poll to see what dates are most popular - July 8 or 9 or the following weekend, July 15 or 16. It will be an afternoon picnic. Take the poll here:


We could go back to the Boston public garden, which was lovely, or the JFK park on the Cambridge side was suggested - better on Sunday when Mem Drive is closed. Let me know any location thoughts. 

I'll let this run for a few days then we can pick a date and a rain date. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Thanks,
Phoebe
