    •  Terrific First Annual Churchless Picnic (I'd estimate that we had over 50 adults and 15-20 youngsters), I very much enjoyed the godless fellowship, ate 'til I hurt, had a fine time, look forward to the next picnic and the next monthly Meet-Up! 
    •  Excellant location,more than enough food and very good company.I hope this to be the first of many more such events !

       It was such a great picnic! all my family loved it. Just hated to leave early because my wife was not good, so couldn't have enough time to greet with all the people there. Thank to all who made this picnic possible. 
    •  Good people, good food & perfect weather. 
    •  My husband and I had a wonderful time. We are continuing to meet so many new fantastic people. I would consider the picnic a big success! 
    •  Loads of fun! We should do this every year. 
    •  I think at the picnic we maybe should have had some sort of welcoming committee set up to deal with people that were wandering up. We had a number of people come up to us while we were there, and we invited them in and offered them food and company, but didn't really stay with them. My son told me later that at least one of them didn't stay very long. Also we should have had pamphlets about the group. I'm not saying that we should have been actively handing them out, just there for people who asked, which we did have one individual show that interest while we were playing horseshoes. I directed him to Joe, but I don't know if he went on to introduce himself. 
    •  I can't wait for next year, Had a great time.

       Awesome day. Great people. Good food. A pastor showed up and wanted to visit to perhaps see what kind of people call themselves freethinkers or atheists. It was great to see all the kids out and playing in our group. We're just a good bunch of people. We are not "immoral" heathens. That was surely reflected in a lovely day at the park.
