"Soccer games, my kids’ play dates and oh yeah my boss wants me to form a committee to plan our company/client event. Eeks! Is 2011 already half over? Let’s see we did one back in 2008 or was that back in 2006? We went to a county destination and we had to get all of our own entertainment. What set up and clean up committee, hah! What can I do differently?”
Does this sound familiar? Or how about it’s the Indiana families turn to host the family reunion? In any case, have you thought about a local destination that makes it as easy as apple pie to plan, execute and afford such an event? How about...Picnics on the Prairie?
Conner Prairie not only has the family fun part ready made through our general admission (at a group discount); we have outdoor picnic pavilions, some with access to sand volleyball courts and areas for tug o’war and sack races.

How about a rustic red barn with indoor/outdoor seating with a ‘front row’ view of the
Balloon Voyage and/or the Lenape Camp and its tomahawk throwing contest? For something more private the Prairie House (log cabin) and / or the Chinese House are perfect for an at home feel but without the hassle of set up and clean up…because the Conner Prairie staff does it all for you. Weekends in the summer are fleeting but there is still time.
We have made planning summer event even simpler by packaging a picnic-themed meal with the venue and meal beverages (non – alcoholic) priced to meet just about any budget. You simply add the entertainment component and your picnic planning woes are done.
