Valentine’s Picnic at UP Sunken Garden (Feb 12)

On February 12, Sunnyside gathered at UP Sunken Garden for a Valentine’s Picnic built around games, food, and open-air connection.

No formal program. Just potluck on grass, shared pizza, freshly baked cookies, and time to chill.

What Happened

• Picnic setup on the field

• Group games and light sports

• Pizza for everyone

• Potluck sharing

• Open hangout time under the trees

UP Sunken Garden gives us what indoor venues can’t:

Space to move. Fresh air. Room to talk without rushing.

Why It Matters

Not every Valentine’s needs a ballroom or a dress code.

Sometimes it’s:

Friends on the grass.
A slice of pizza.
A game that makes everyone laugh.

That’s the kind of memory that lasts.

Who It Was For

• Homeschool families

• Teens and kids who love open space

• Parents who prefer relaxed social days

Simple. Shared. And so much fun!
