Roundabout Social Club: Riverbend Park Hang + Potluck
Details
Exciting news! We are now on Partiful. Roundabout Social Club is moving more of our events to Partiful because it’s completely free for both organizers and attendees, unlike Meetup, which charges for many of its features. It also makes it easier to RSVP, see who’s coming, receive updates, and connect with people before and after events, making it a better fit for the kind of community we’re building.
🎉 RSVP here or on Partiful, but in the future, all RSC events will be on Partiful. Here is the link to signup for the group, you will need to RSVP to this event as well!

Now, onto the announcement:
Join us for a laid-back Riverbend Park hang, potluck, and lawn game day!
This will be a casual outdoor social meetup where we can relax in the park, snack, play games, meet new people, and enjoy a summer day in Bend. No big agenda, just a fun park hang with good people.
We’ll set up somewhere on the lawn at Riverbend Park, bring chairs and blankets, share snacks potluck-style, and rotate through whatever lawn games people bring.
## What to bring
Please bring (all items here are optional but appreciated):
- A snack or small dish to share
- A chair or picnic blanket
- Water
- Sunscreen
- Hat / sunglasses
- Lawn games if you have them
- Layers, depending on the weather
- Anything else you need for a comfortable park hang
Good snack ideas:
- Chips and dip
- Fruit
- Veggie tray
- Cheese/crackers
- Cookies
- Trail mix
- Sparkling water
- Gluten-free snacks
- Easy picnic foods that do not require cooking
## Bring a lawn game
If you have a lawn game, please bring it and comment below which game you’re bringing so we don’t end up with 12 cornhole sets.
Game ideas:
- Cornhole
- Bocce ball
- Spikeball
- Ladder toss
- Kan Jam
- Frisbee
- Giant Jenga
- Cards
- Uno
- Picnic blanket games
- Any other easy outdoor game
## Comment when you RSVP
When you RSVP, please comment:
- What snack or food you’re bringing
- What lawn game you can bring, if any
- Whether you’re coming solo or bringing a friend
Example:
“Bringing chips and guac, a picnic blanket, and bocce ball. Coming solo!”
## Dogs
Dogs are welcome if they are friendly and you’re comfortable managing them in a group setting. Bend Park & Recreation notes that dogs are required to be leashed in public areas except in designated off-leash areas, and Riverbend has a nearby dog off-leash area with river access on the east side of the park.
## Parking / arrival
Riverbend Park can get busy on summer weekends, so plan to arrive a little early if you want easier parking. We’ll post an update the day of with our exact meetup spot once we set up.
## Important note
This is a casual community hang, not a reserved private shelter event.
