Lakeside Pavilion at Homestead Park – Hilliard | May 13th, 2025
For our May 13th meeting, we will be hosting a picnic at Homestead Park in Hilliard. We will be providing food from Smoked Lick BBQ in Hilliard, as well as soda and water. Alcohol is prohibited within the park, so please be cognizant of park rules.
We have the Lakeside Pavilion shelter reserved from 5 to 9 pm, and the food is expected to be delivered around 5:45 pm. There is a pond next to the shelter, so please feel free to bring your fly rod for some pond fishing.
Despite rain in the forecast, we will be holding the picnic rain or shine. This is also our final monthly get together before we take a few months off for the summer, so we hope to see you there!
