CLC's Annual Picnic and Service At The Park Last year's picnic and service at the park was a huge success. We are doing it again this year. The service will be on Sunday August 24th at 10:00 am at Civic Green Park with the picnic to follow. There will be food, lots of water, games and great fellowship. Please bring a salad, side or dessert to share. Bingo is one of the biggest hits and we need prizes. Gift cards are always great but anything will do. We are also asking for donations \of hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, pop, water, cheese and ice to be grilled at the park. Please sign the response sheet so we know what to expect. If you can please bring your donations to the park with you before the service at 10:00 am so we can start grilling. If not drop them off at the church before the 8:00 am service that morning because we will be taking everything to the park then. We are also looking for people to grill, put together the burgers and hot dogs as well as set up and clean up. Sign up on Sunday on the Response Sheet or contact Deb Freeman in the church office.
