Unexpected guests invade picnic!

We invited local entertainer Serengeti Steve to our Spring picnic… and he brought along several of his pets, much to the delight of most at the picnic — and to the chagrin of the more skittish among us.

Thanks to Debbie Washburn for organizing the event, and for the whole crew of volunteers who made it a great event.

All invited to Church Picnic June 13

The annual Ivy Chapel Picnic is taking on a new twist this year — it’s open to the public! This is a great chance for everyone to stop by and see what a great, welcoming church Ivy is. The Picnic starts at 12 noon on Sunday, June 12 and will feature grilled hot dogs, square dancing, horseshoes, snow cones, s’mores and … yes, pony rides!

So saddle up, swing your partner round and round and get ready for family fun with Ivy Chapel!

Food, Folks and Fun at Annual Picnic

Ivy’s Annual Church Picnic was held on Sunday, June 7. It was a huge success… good friends, good food (as always) and fun for folks of all ages. We were doubly lucky, as the rain threatened but held off until the party was over… and everything was cleaned up!

It wasn’t all about food this year, as everyone could get their faces painted, play a little Bingo “Ivy Style” and take a shot in the Free-Throw tournament. There was a cake walk… a sno-cone station… and, of course, hamburgers and hotdogs (and tons of delicious sides).

Thanks to all of the committees who teamed up and made this such a fun event for everyone.
