Branan Towers Summer Picnic
Tuesday, June 10, 11:00am-2:00pm | Branan Towers
You’re invited to our Summer Picnic with Branan Towers! We will serve an old fashioned picnic menu with entertainment by the GumStrummers, an offshoot of the Feed and Seed Band. They are a very interactive group and a crowd favorite! All ages are welcome. We are in need of helping hands to assist with setting up and serving the residents, for the interaction with the residents is the biggest gift. Additionally, we are in need of help with the sides for the picnic: coleslaw, potato salad and baked beans. If you are interested in helping to prepare or provide the sides more information will be gladly given. If you have any questions, contact Diane Bryant. You may sign-up here.
