The Woodhaven Residents' Block Association is sponsoring a neighborhood Block Party on Saturday, June 23rd from 11AM to 6PM at the Picnic Grove in Forest Park, near the Seuffert Band Shell. Cold soda, hotdogs and hamburgers will be provided to members -- but EVERYONE is invited to come and enjoy an old-fashioned Block Party.
Throughout the day we will be having "workshops" for the kids on how to play some of the classic games of our youth -- including May I, Simon Sez, Ringoleavio and Skully. Somehow, we can see a few of the adults getting down on the ground to flick bottlecaps around!
And, if all goes as we expect (and hope) the kids will have one of the all-time best rides right across the street -- The Forest Park Carousel.
Around 1:30 we'll be having a small awards ceremony to honor locals residents who have contributed to the community. And throughout the day we'll have a running Woodhaven Trivia game going between tables (or groups) with a grand prize of a complete set of Woodhaven History Books (including the famous "History of Woodhaven and Ozone Park"), courtesy of the Woodhaven Historical Society.
There is no cost, this is not a fundraiser -- just come out and have fun with your friends and neighbors.
Please RSVP with a number of attendees by June 10th so we can plan accordingly -- open to all Woodhaven Residents, present and past -- as well as friends of Woodhaven -- e-mail us at [email protected].
Hope to see you all there!
