St. Mary's Parish Tailgate - Sunday, September 26th at 12:30 PM

Who Needs a Picnic . . .

 . . . When You Can Have a Tailgate!

This year our annual parish fellowship event will be a Parish Tailgate on Sunday, 9/26, beginning at 12:30 p.m.!  You don’t have to actually have a tailgate to participate – just roll up in whatever you’re driving and take a spot in the parking lot!  Bring your own lawn chairs, pop-up shelters, coolers, grills, snacks, lunches, drinks – whatever you need for the ultimate tailgate set-up.  There will be:

  • Games for kids of all ages on the lawn

  • A kids vs. grown-ups kick ball game (sign up in the narthex)

  • A Tasty Tailgate Treat contest to showcase the best dip, snack, appetizer, etc. (register the day of the event)

  • A Cookie Contest (register the day of the event)

 The tailgate format gives us the opportunity to gather and enjoy some fellowship, while also respecting personal space and preferences as we continue to responsibly navigate the ongoing, ever-changing pandemic as a faith community. 

  • There will be no food or drinks provided.

  • Except for small samples provided for the contests, to judges comfortable sampling them, there will be no dishes to pass/food for sharing.

  • Except for use of the bathrooms, all parish facilities will be off-limits during the event, including the kitchen, parish hall, narthex, barbeque area, and pavilion.

See you there!
