Picnic in the Park keeps WCC’s 100th rolling along

Children frolic in the foam at the Whitin Community Center’s Picnic in the Park on June 10th.

The year-long celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Whitin Community Center continued on June 10th with the return of “Picnic in the Park,” a longtime staple of the organization’s relationship with the towns of the Blackstone Valley.
Among those in attendance as a vendor was Melissa Dettore of Uxbridge, who sells Tupperware as a side venture.
Foam spray was a big hit with children, on the grounds behind the Main St. facility.
Activities and events are ongoing in the months ahead, starting with the Youth Outreach Summer Theatre Production on July 21 and 22, followed by Cars in the Park on August 19th and the WCC’s Benefit Golf Tournament on August 28th.
