Hi Richard and all,
Thanks!! Yes: it looks like July 16, Sunday, is the best day. How about 1-5p on Sunday? Here's the wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Boston/Wiknic_2017
Following a suggestion by Joseph Reagle, let's try Cambridge this year - specifically JFK park in Harvard Square. JFK park borders Memorial Drive, which is closed on Sundays in summer to vehicular traffic, so it is a pleasant place to stroll, bicycle, etc. The closest T stop is Harvard Sq., a few blocks away.

Hope to see you all there! Phoebe

Hi Wiki-Bostonians,
It looks like Sunday July 16 is the most favored date.
I look forward to taking the bus up from NYC to join :)
Should we set up a page on-wiki?
Thanks, Richard (User:Pharos)

Dear all,
It's that time of year again - the great American Wiknic! This year the main Wiknic dates are July 8-9. However, I've made a poll to see what dates are most popular - July 8 or 9 or the following weekend, July 15 or 16. It will be an afternoon picnic. Take the poll here:

We could go back to the Boston public garden, which was lovely, or the JFK park on the Cambridge side was suggested - better on Sunday when Mem Drive is closed. Let me know any location thoughts.
I'll let this run for a few days then we can pick a date and a rain date. Looking forward to seeing everyone!
Thanks, Phoebe
