It was a lot of fun - there was croquet, live music, food aplenty and tours of the lovely Banning House and surrounding grounds - they had a beautiful rose garden with covered walkways and trellis'. It was a gorgeous summer day and everyone looked wonderful. I hope there is another picnic next year. Many thanks to those that organized it.
