Picnic by Lake Merritt Boathouse

Join us for a delightful afternoon surrounded by nature's beauty! We'll be gathering next to the southern gate of the Gardens at Lake Merritt—a perfect spot to relax and connect.

Location: Southern entrance of the Gardens at Lake Merritt, and next to the Lake Merritt Boat House

What to Bring:

• Picnic blanket or portable chair
• Your favorite food and non-alcoholic beverages
• Board games or outdoor activities
• Portable speakers for music (optional)

Take some time to wander through the free botanical garden either before or after our gathering—it's a hidden gem worth exploring! The serene lake and scenic walking/biking trail are just steps away from our meeting spot.
Restroom facilities are conveniently located at the boathouse directly across the street.

Parking: Look for spaces in the Bellevue Avenue lot. If full, additional parking can be found a short walk away on Grand Avenue.
Come ready for fun, connection, and outdoor enjoyment!
