Very special picnic a collaboration
PENN TWP — Zach Pry, of Cherry Township, was quick to share his thoughts on the annual picnic on Wednesday evening, June 20, at Succop Nature Park hosted by Alliance for Nonprofit Resources and Butler County’s Human Service department.
“It is a blast,” said Pry. “I love picnics and hanging out with my friends.”
The picnic was for those with intellectual disabilities, developmental disabilities, autism and medically complex children who are in the county’s Intellectual Disabilities program.
Melissa Vettori, family liaison for Butler County, said the picnic normally draws 60 to 80 people.
“This year, 215 signed up,” she said as she took a break from dishing up hot dogs.
