The 2009 CRC Annual Family Picnic for CRC tenant employees and families held on August 28th was made possible by our generous sponsors. This 1950's-themed event provided entertainment for all ages and was characterized by live music provided by the Breeze Brothers, cotton candy, and sno cones.

Children enjoyed tunneling their way through the giant caterpillar and bouncing in the moon bounce. They also enjoyed carnival games, balloon sculptures from Ziggy the Clown on stilts, caricature drawings, and face painting.

Sponsors provided cookies, games, balloons, raffles, a blood pressure check-up and complimentary give-aways to attendees. Wikiteria Market and Café catered the event.

The CRC would like to thank each of our sponsors for helping to make this annual event possible. 2009 Annual Picnic Sponsors include:
