PICNIC 101 – MAPCL’S ANNUAL PICNIC

How do discerning lovers of the outdoors and R and R enjoy summer? Well, those of us who have had the”MAPCL  PICNIC” experience can attest to the fun, good food and good company the day brings.

On Thursday July 26 at Confederation Park in Burnaby, a great day was had by everyone who attended. Staff, our consumers, local dignitaries and Management all mingled and supped on burgers, hot dogs, a variety of salads and polished all that off with Tim Hortons coffee and donuts provided by the Tim Horton community cruiser.

Games, music and good fun were the outcome of a great event put together by Louise Blackwell and the Special Events Committee.

Takea look at these photos, and you will see why you need to mark your calendar for next year’s event!!!
