We will be setup in the grass "Picnic Grove" at PARX Horse Racing, just look for the group of Penn State tents and signage with our Chapter logo.
We will have all your favorite picnic foods (Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, etc..), as well as various non-alcoholic drinks as we pass the time between Live Races. Lunch will be available between 11:30am - 2:30ish.
For the adults, you are able to gamble on the horse races but it's not necessary, you can just watch them run if you wish.
For the kids, there is a playground on site as well as other various events that PARX typically supplies such as bounce houses, face painting, pony rides as well as a petting zoo.
This event is rain or shine unless PARX Racetrack cancels live races due to extreme weather.
PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN CHAIRS/BLANKETS and other picnic creature comforts that you may wish to have. You are able to bring pop-up tents as well, if desired, but they are required to be staked down per PARX rules/regulations.
