Pleasure in the park.  Nothing says family fun like a picnic at one of our local parks on a grand scale.  Join Councilmember Gary Davis and family  from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. this Saturday at for the 5th Annual Community Barbecue.  You'll feast on franks and hamburgers over live entertainment.  Here's to outdoor activities!
