St Stephen’s oldest tradition—the Annual Fall Picnic—will once again take place at the home of Ellen Reather on scenic Dulaney Valley Road in Glen Arm, on Sunday, September 8th, at 1:00 PM.
If great food and good company in a bucolic country setting appeal to you, please plan to join us. For those who tried walking on water last year, the pool will be uncovered and officially open, so bring a suit and take a dip. There’s a changing room in the pool house.
Ellen’s gracious home, at 13201 Dulaney Valley Road, Glen Arm, is the perfect place for a traditional family fall celebration. The house is set among rolling hills, and the mature trees and her pasture is home to a small flock of sheep, including Ryan, the bottle-fed, much pampered lamb. The Parish Life Committee will provide beverages, not to mention the hot dogs and hamburgers—all grilled under the personal supervision of our gourmet treasurer, Bill Hawkins.
It would, however, be much appreciated if folks whose family names begin with letters from A to M should bring desserts or cake, while those whose names start with letters N to Z should bring salads or casseroles.
Please note: there will be no coffee hour after services on September 8th, but there will be plenty of wonderful food at the picnic. Join us there!
