Summer is flying by and somehow it's August already! Take advantage of these beautiful summer days, and skip thinking about dinner on Wednesday.

This coming Wednesday, August 5th, from 5 until 7pm, the Southport Island Association will hold its Annual Picnic at the beautiful Ocean Gate Inn (70 Ocean Gate Rd.). The food and company combined with the view will make it a night to remember.

All Southporters, their families and guests are invited to enjoy this community event.

The cost for the picnic is $10 per person. Children under the age of 6 are FREE.

Hot dogs, hamburgers, water and lemonade are provided. Please bring a dish to share (appetizer, side, or dessert - whatever recipe you love to show off!) Please note this event is BYOB. Bring lawn chair(s) if possible.

For more info and/or to volunteer to help, call or text Janet Duchaine at 860.484.9006.
