The
Picnics in the Oak Grove Committee is hard at work planning
IUP’s 25th annual summer of community gatherings. Picnics will be held,
weather
permitting, on three Wednesdays this year—June 18, July 9, and
July 23—and on one
Friday, August 22.
In
keeping with the spirit of this community event, all employees
who are on a
pre-set lunch break (other than noon) who plan to attend the
picnics may change
their lunch break to noon. Employees on a half-hour lunch break
who'd like
to stay the full hour may use their morning and afternoon breaks
on the picnic
days to allow for an hour in the Oak Grove.
Aramark food
stations will be available
to purchase lunch with a fixed price of $6.50 per plate, based
on one trip
through the buffet line using one dinner plate.
In
the event of inclement weather, picnic cancellations will be
posted on the IUP
website and on the Picnics in the Grove site. Please
check these sites on Wednesday mornings if the weather is questionable.
Every
picnic day has been designated as a “Crimson IUP Spirit Day,” so
please
consider wearing IUP apparel to show your IUP pride.
To
welcome community visitors, there will be no parking enforcement
for meters or
pay-by-space on picnic days from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Come
join the fun, enjoy the delicious food, and visit with your
coworkers!
