★ SATURDAY, NOV 29th, 1PM - 6PM, TARPEIAN LAWN PRECINCT ★
A beautiful spot overlooking the Harbour Bridge & Opera House for a picnic and amazing sunset.
Pet friendly but keep in mind it's a picnic with lotsa food so bring a leash.
★ BYO DRINKS & A PICNIC ITEM TO SHARE ★
If you've got a great dish then go for it but don't worry if you don't.. a bag of chips, etc also counts!! We're giving out prizes for best dishes.
Also be sure to bring a picnic blanket & sunblock. We'll have coolers for drinks. There's bathrooms, etc at the Opera House.
★ WE'VE GOT TURKEY ★
Brined for 2 days, then slow-roasted for 6 hours and delivered hot to the picnic around 2pm. For those who partake, you can make a completely voluntary donation to the "turkey fund" 🦃🦃🦃🦃
★ FINDING US ★
It's between the fence of the Botanic Gardens and Macquarie St. Approach from Macquarie St. Here's the approximate link on Google maps... https://goo.gl/maps/YMtCvgPwdV22
Look for the American flags & familiar accents.
★ MORE INFO ★
This is always a really friendly, free event where a lot of young professionals & students make new friends so don't just invite your American friends! Families & pets welcome too of course. We've also got Spikeball, Cornhole and touch football 🏈
★ RAIN PLAN ★
We've got Kent St Hotel booked as our back-up plan. Same time 1pm-6pm. And it'll still be BYO food & we're still doing the turkeys so either way, this picnic is on!!
BYO plates and cutlery just in case, but it'd be nice if someone can bring a bunch of plates/cutlery/napkins as backup for those who forget.
🥧 AMERICAN PIE THANKSGIVING BAKE-OFF 🥧
Wanna a practice your pie-baking skills before our picnic? Or just feel like tasting a bunch of pies that'll make you homesick..
