Get ready to celebrate with 3,000 of your closest friends and neighbors at the Village of Palmetto Bay's Ninth Annual Celebration Picnic, Saturday, March 5, from 11a.m. to 2 p.m. at Coral Reef Park (address: 7895 SW 152 St.).
Palmetto Bay hosts this signature event each year to celebrate the Village's incorporation in 2002 -- as a way to say "thank you" to residents for their positive energy and support throughout the year. The 2011 picnic offers something for everyone: local entertainment, exciting kiddie activities, fire and police displays, and great food -- including everyone's favorite, roasted corn on-the-cob, cooked and served by members of the Village Council and staff.
Be "green" and ride your bike to the picnic this year. If you must drive, parking is available on the park's two south parking lots (off SW 152 St. near Coral Reef Elementary School) and at St. Richard's Holy Rosary Church at the southeast corner of SW 152 St. and 77 Ave.). The park's east parking lot off 77 Ave. is reserved for police, fire, and picnic vendors.
