Picnic in the Park!
July 15, 2023 @ 2:00 pm–7:00 pm EDT
Picnic in the Park!
with GRIP-UQAM, QPIRG-Concordia, and QPIRG-McGill
Happy summer aka picnic season!
We are planning a picnic for all our Working Groups and any other community members/orgs/friends that are interested. The picnic will be held Saturday July 15th, 14h00 – 19h00 @ Jarry Parc.
Schedule: We want to take this opportunity to hear from our Working Groups about what you awesome folks have been working on, make connections between our working groups, and build up our collective community knowledge :). Also very importantly, we want to eat, chill out, and have fun!
Starting at 14h00, we will have each working group do a quick introduction and present any ongoing campaigns/work they are doing. Then we will have a chance to share and learn from each other through a discussion around organizing in our changed/changing external reality (what challenges are we seeing in mobilizing and engaging folx, what’s worked for groups, how can we meet safely, etc)
Afterwards, it will be a lot of fun in the sun! Chatting and mingling with lots of rad people!
Working Groups: We would really love it if you could join us! And if you could arrive at 14h00 so we get to hear from all the working groups, that would be amazing!
Food: We will provide food! It will be bbq food with vegan and gf options provided.
Rendezvous: We will meet beside the swimming pool in Park Jarry
RSVP: Since we are providing food, RSVPs would be amazing! Again, the attendance of all of our Working Groups would be fantastic, and all are welcome. If you know for sure you are coming (and how many are coming with you), please let us know ahead of time so we make sure we can plan appropriately.
We are hoping that this is going to be a fun day of connection, delicious food, and new + old friends! If you have any questions, concerns, or would like to RSVP, please email us back at info@qpirgconcordia.org. .
See you there!
