Not too very long ago, people tended to stay close together. You knew all your neighbors, and they knew you. If someone needed help, you showed up and got busy. If you were the one in need, you would find your neighbors standing on the porch waiting to do what was necessary.
But it wasn’t just troubles that brought neighbors together. It was also a need to socialize and have a bit of fun. Occasionally, the neighbors would all get together for a ‘meal on the grounds’ – which is just another way of saying they were having a Neighborhood Picnic.
It’s time we brought back a few of the ‘old’ ways of gathering together. And what better way to do that than having a Neighborhood Picnic!
Listen in and find a simple way to organize your own neighborhood gathering. You may just have more fun than you think - even if you don't invite the Dancing Girls!
