The Dialogue Society Sheffield to kindly invite you to our 1st ever annual -soon to become traditional- Dialogue Picnic event on Saturday, 4th September 2021. I am pleased to say that this time it will not take place online but at the beautiful Graves Park of Sheffield. It would be a great pleasure for us to have you at this event.
We hope that this will be a great opportunity for us to catch up, be physically in the same place and have proper chats with each other. We are also planning to play some games to take the fun even to the next level.
There are a few things that I want to point out;
– We will serve hygienically prepared homemade Turkish food however it is completely up to you to eat them or bring your own. We will also provide soft drinks such as juice. But if you want to have hot drinks, we kindly ask you to bring your own hot drinks. – We kindly ask everyone to bring their own picnic rugs or chairs. – It would be great for us to be able to be well prepared for this event, if you could please RSVP by the 25th August along with the information of how many adults and children will be attending. – Upon arrival, if you could make your way to the main car park at the Graves Park, one of us will meet you there and guide you to the area where we will be picnicking. – If prior to the event day the weather forecast suggests that it will not be a dry day, we will sadly have to cancel or postpone the event. In that case, we will inform you of the cancellation or postponement via e-mail.
We would be delighted to have you at the event. You may also forward this invitation to whoever you might think could be interested. We are looking forward to seeing you at the picnic.
When: Saturday, 4th September 2021 – at 13:00
