- Imbibe responsibly
- Appreciate the warm, flush loos (there will be many!)
- Ask for consent before taking photos
We’re taking what we learned from last year to create a more comfortable picnic experience for everyone: not everyone skates in a crowd/ at all or enjoys standing around in winter, so..
