2009 WPSNE Family Picnic
The weather could not have been better for Saturday's picnic at the Patton family estate. Our gracious host, Mrs. Joanne Patton was a joy to spend time with. We enjoyed picnics on the lawn, with a gorgeous view of the grounds. A few brave souls went for a chilly swim. Many went on the hayride/tour of the farm. Guests were also encouraged to wander around the main house which was full of Patton family history. In attendance from the WPPC of MA were: the Chins, the Cronins, the Manougians and the McMahons.
