Outstanding! Milwaukee Chapter Annual Picnic, That Is

If you walked away from Heidelberg Park, Milwaukee, Saturday, June 22nd not smiling, hungry, thirsty and completely satisfied, then you didn't go to the Milwaukee Chapter Picnic. With over 300 children and 200 adults joining in, the affair was the largest and one of the most successful ever held. Under the direction of Don Foss, Chapter President, all members joined in to make the event one all the kids and adults will long remember. The weatherman served up a delightful day while the management followed suit with a delicious German style meal featuring bratwurst. For entertainment there were pony rides, dancing, baseball you name it and they had it.

Attending from out of town were Mr. and Mrs. Herman Hunt, Indianapolis, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Laureys, Arlington, and Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Miller, Chicago, and their families.
