Summer Picnic

Join RPCVs, family, and friends for our Annual SEAPAX Potluck Picnic on Saturday August 21! We will gather at Magnuson Park Shelter #2 (6505 NE 65th St, Seattle, WA 98115) from 3-6 pm (please note, prior announcements had an earlier start time of 1 pm).

Please bring food to share (side dishes encouraged) and SEAPAX will provide the main course: hamburgers, veggie burgers, and hot dogs with buns and condiments. We will also provide a limited supply of water and refreshments.

Following Seattle Parks and Recreation and CDC recommendations, we ask that all unvaccinated persons wear a mask when in groups and where social distancing (> 6 feet) is not possible. Vaccinated individuals who feel safer and more comfortable wearing a mask in outdoor groups are more than welcome to do so.
