PICNIC OF THE ICC WOMEN’S GROUP

 

This organization is holding potluck picnics every year for its members and their family and friends. For the last several years they were held at the South Pavilion of the Lake Forest Beach. Everyone brings a favorite dish and participate in a communal dinner and a family party. These pictures show their picnic held in August 2000.
