Fireworks @ Stone Arch, State Food Theme Potluck Picnic, wheeling @ St Anthony's

It's the 4th! Let's celebrate together with our State Food Theme Potluck Picnic and watch the Fireworks display at Stone Arch Bridge! For those early-bird adventure seekers, let's roll out our favorite wheels and check out St. Anthony's first!

a. Meet at Stone Arch Bridge at 7pm. We'll find a strategic spot to enjoy our potluck picnic and watch the Fireworks together! It's State Food Theme Potluck Picnic so everyone must bring a cooked dish to share and please POST on event page what dish you're bringing so we won't have food duplication. As usual, I'll prepare the fruits, chips and dips and picnic setup. I can bring my portable propane stove if you let me know your food need to be heated but remember to bring it in heat-resistant glassware or metal containers.

b. Meet at Stone Arch Bridge at 3pm. Find your ideal parking lot early and grab your fluids as we're going to check out St. Anthony's first! Bring your favorite wheels - regular or electric, fold or fat bike, track or trike, tandem or recumbent, segway or skateboards, roller blades or skates or whatever works for you! Big (or small wheels) keep on going, we'll just keep on rolling, rolling down the river... maybe try out the North East Diagonal Regional Trail... ! ;)
