Next Thursday, August 11, the Portsmouth Pride Coalition will hold our first annual picnic at Glen Park, from 4-7pm, and if you're the kind of person who reads my blog, you'll want to stop by to grab a free burger or dogs (yes, there will be veggie options), enjoy the fun activities for kids, and score a free t-shirt.

This is a grassroots get-together of people who want to keep our town the best place on earth. You can RSVP on Facebook.

Learn more on the web site or the PPC Facebook page.

Full disclosure: This event will be made of awesome.
