Watermelon Time Community Picnic

Thanks for coming!

In a year of divisive politics, getting together with neighbors is more important than ever!

It's easy to get caught-up in 24-hour news coverage and talking-head argument shows, but that's not real!  Turn off your TV, put down your dumb phone, step outside your house, and see all the smiles that a free, community picnic can create.

Watermelon Time was born to bring people together. 

Next Watermelon Time will be Saturday, August 26th


Here some memories from the 2016 picnic:
Held Saturday, August 20th, at Highland Park, Watermelon Time 2016 brought together over 200 people for free food, games, music, and give-aways.  The weather was incredible and the smiles were magnificent. 

I personally visited 800 homes in Endwell & Endicott and sent out 3,000 postcard invites to the community. 

There was no RSVP, so I had no idea how many people would show up.

The response was overwhelming.  Not only did I get people that I invited - I also got their friends, neighbors, and relatives too!  As a result, the park was packed with people of all ages and walks of life.  They sat at the same tables, shared food, games, and conversation.  The outcome was lots of smiles.  What more can we ask for from life?


Thanks to all the sponsors & volunteers who helped make Watermelon Time a success.

Can't wait to do it again in 2017!
