(La Porte, IN) - The La Porte City Park Foundation will hold its inaugural “Picnic Under the Stars,” a fund raiser to mark the official kickoff of the Foundation’s 40th Anniversary celebration.
The event will take place on November 15 from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM at the La Porte Civic Auditorium. The community is invited to gather for good, live music and camaraderie in support of the city’s parks.
“We’re excited to kick off 40 years of serving our community with an event that combines fun, connection, and philanthropy,” said Emily Archambault, Assistant Director of the La Porte Park and Recreation Department.
The ‘Picnic Under the Stars is not only a fundraiser but also a "friendraiser," meaning it presents an opportunity for the foundation to connect with both new and longtime supporters while raising the funds needed to “sustain and grow our parks,” she said.
Event Highlights:
- Picnic-Style Appetizers and Drinks: Enjoy a delightful selection of picnic-style appetizers and desserts catered by Downs Family Catering. A cash bar will also be available.
- Live Music: Dance and relax to the sounds of Point’n Fingers, adding to the evening’s festive atmosphere.
