Arc in the Park 2011 Sets Record Attendance

More than 600 people descended upon Creve Coeur Park on Saturday, October 1, 2011, for the annual Arc In the Park picnic. The record turn-out was attributed to a gorgeous Fall day, along with memories of the delicious 2009 BBQ.

Entertainment included a face painting station, arts and crafts, a DJ and dance party, the St. Louis Clowns of America, magician Larry Minth and Norton the Penguin.

We wish to thank our sponsors Bob Cook and John Meixner, Cabot Cheese, PFG-Middendorf, Save-A-Lot, Schnucks, and everyone who helped make the day so enjoyable for the people we support and their families.

St. Louis Arc also extends a sincere thank you to the following volunteer groups: John Meixner and his BBQ crew for grilling, Bob Cook for DJ'ing, the Junior League, Boy Scout Troop 750, and the service sorority Epsilon Sigma Alpha for assisting with food distribution and clean-up.
