Please come to the annual beginning-of-the-year potluck picnic / party to greet the new school year and welcome new faculty, new students, new visitors. Bring friends and family!
When: SUNDAY, September 8, starting at 3:30, continuing on into the evening
Where: 50 Hobart Lane, Amherst, 01002. (413) 549-4501 -- Barbara and Volodja's.
Hobart Lane is a small street that goes east off North Pleasant just a short distance north of the university, opposite Puffton Village, near the Crestview /Presidential Apartments bus stop. 50 Hobart Lane is a big white house on the left, near the end. The street sign may be missing; but in that case it’s the only street around there with a pole but no sign.
The party will be outdoor/indoor; dress casual. The picnic will be held rain or shine!
We don’t set up a volleyball net anymore, but do bring other outdoor stuff. We have a croquet set, and badminton raquets and birdies, and there’s ping-pong in the basement.
Food and drink: Potluck
We'll have a charcoal grill, and some beer, wine and non-alcoholic beverages (more needed). Bring things to eat in any category. International foods most welcome! (If you aren't up for cooking, you can bring beer or wine, or cheese, or fruit, etc.) We'll likely start eating around 4:30 or 5:00.
