Steampunk Picnic at Gallup Park 2022

Let’s have another picnic in July! It was fun last year, in spite of the cool, damp weather. We have reserved the Fast Shelter at Gallup Park in Ann Arbor, just off Geddes Rd. on Sunday, July 10th.
It is a beautiful location with walking paths, a marvelous playground for the kids, and even a canoe livery for the daring. We have a large sheltered area with grills and restrooms near by.
So come out to Ann Arbor in your Steampunk picnic finery (not required).
