Picture it: New York City, 1969.
Let's all celebrate Pride the way NYC does best: A liquid picnic where we mingle, drink, dance, and have a great time!
Bring a friendly personality
A cheap bottle of alcohol to share like rum, vodka, tequila, White Claw (if you drink). There are 750ml / 1L bottles around $13 (cheaper than buying a drink at bar.)
Something to mix the alcohol like Coca-cola, orange juice, etc. (unless you like drinking the alcohol alone)
Your food if you want to eat before drinking
Want your favorite songs to play at the picnic? add them on the collaborative Spotify playlist!
If can please bring a portable speaker in case other ones runs out of battery so we can have unlimited music.
NOTICE: Everyone should be respected as an individual, if a person becomes harassing to others, they would be asked to leave the event. I want everyone to feel safe and have a great time during the events.
People are eating, dancing, celebrating, mingling, and just having a great time! It is Pride so there is a lot of things to celebrate!
Its an outdoor club! with different kind of music people-made stations, drinking and dancing!

There will be a lot of people at the park, I will look for a spot once I arrive and will share the location / picture on the group chat formed on the instant message apps as service is bad that day.
The picnic blanket will be the same one I'm sitting on the picture below:

First: Click on the group chat logo to get redirected. Please remember that service is not great on that day so phones go on and off service so it is better to message the group chat in case someone who also is there gets service before I do.
Second: If you messaged the group chat but no one answered, my ID is the same on all instant messages.
Third: In case you don't have any of these apps; tap the phone logo and you will be able to call me or text.
I will not respond to "how many people?" messages. I do this for fun, I'm not a private event coordinator.
If you do not have data in the U.S., you can get free wifi at subway/metro stations, the LinkNY kiosks around Manhattan's streets, fast food restaurants, cafe, etc.
See you at Pride!
