To fulfill our parish outreach program, as suggested by the Central Diocese, we held a Free Town Picnic inviting community members, parishioners and friends. The Picnic was held on Sunday, June 27th from 12 to 4pm. We had perfect weather which allowed many children to take advantage of the 16 feet water slide from Party Time Rentals, Woodland Park. Children and adults were also entertained by magician, “Simply Magical.” In the parish hall children and adults enjoyed face painting done by our parishioner, Natalie Lazar. We thank her for sharing her time and talent.
We had varieties of homemade ethnic foods, hot and cold and desserts donated by several parishioners. We truly appreciate sharing their culinary talents and their generosity. We thank parishioners who donated paper products. The parish provided hamburgers, hot dogs, popcorn, watermelon, green salad, soft drinks and prizes for the children. We thank Dominick Bucci, David Obssuth, Edward Obssuth and the help of Andy Obssuth for preparing hamburgers and hot dogs in the kitchen and outdoor grill. We thank the Galindo Family, Dominick Bucci, George O’Brien, Natalie Cyman for setting up the hall and outdoor tents. We thank all those who supported our parish with free will donations. Finally we thank the serving and clean-up crew Angela Gulla, Fran Cuccinello, Deby Golaszewski, Jennifer Galindo, Beverly Obssuth, and Joan Kaynak. Special thank you to Pastor Cho and parishioners of Methodist Korean Church for extra parking in their church lot. We thank anyone who helped in any way, shape or form to make the picnic very successful for the enjoyment of dozens of parishioners, community members and friends.
