Every Thursday night, from 7:00-9:00 p.m., you and your family can enjoy a little picnic (if you wish) and listen to live music. This is a great family activity everybody in your family.

And to finish up this picture-perfect family activity you can indulge yourselves with popcorn, hot dogs, or even bring your own picnic basket and have a nice time with your grandchildren.
