Neighborhood picnic is Sunday!

The annual Mentelle neighborhood picnic returns Sunday after a two-year pandemic hiatus. It will be 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the north median of Mentelle Park nearest Cramer Avenue. All neighborhood residents and their families are invited to attend.

The Mentelle Neighborhood Association will provide hamburgers and hotdogs. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share and your own choice of beverage. There will be games and activities for kids, a bouncy house provided by the Warehouse block, a city fire truck to inspect (if it’s not busy fighting a fire), and live music.

Mentelle Park residents please note: The east (even numbered) side of the street beside the median nearest Cramer will be closed to vehicular traffic from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. So please adjust your plans (and car’s location) accordingly.
