Father's Day Cottonwood Cruise & Picnic - Saturday, June 12


theChad

Recommended Posts

The 12th Anniversary of the annual Father's Day Cruse and Picnic is again scheduled for a wonderful drive to Cottonwood.

Last year some of us stopped around the corner and grabbed a cold beer at THAT brewery. I think I'll do this again this year as well! :cheers
This is the weekend before Father's Day so everyone can still celebrate the holiday with family.

 

The picnic destination in Cottonwood's Garrison Park has plenty of picnic bench seating under a huge ramada, and additional shade trees for those that want a true blanket picnic.

 

You are required to bring your own sack lunch for a picnic.  

  • There's one medium sized ramada with 6 picnic tables, a nearby restroom, and a playground.

 

WHEN: Saturday, June 12th (Weekend before Father's Day)

Destination: Garrison Park, Cottonwood, AZ (Picnic spot)

Route: Google Maps Link (Also see below)

Who: ACE members post up in this thread if you can make it, I'll update the 1st post with the list.

:blink I'm not sure what this is (signature??), but it looks like linking your image/thumbnail is failing terribly from your email (outlook/hotmail).

I'd suggest saving the image on your desktop and uploading it into the message, then clean the file off your desktop. Or on mobile, saving to your camera roll first and attaching.

Chad says we are going to the same brewery afterwards, so I'm guessing the answer is yes?  :eat:

If I remember correctly (Marcelo?) it wasn't inside the brewery, it was a food truck parked right adjacent to the seating area that had the duck fat fries. . .

OH ! That's right... there was a food truck just outside the garage doors ! I'm not sure of their schedule for food trucks, but we can hope those guys come back !

You are not required to eat the duck fat fries to accompany the group to the second stop... Just sayin' :P

We are driving up from Green Valley on Friday night to North Phoenix and will join at the North Phoenix launch.  We will be picking up our picnic lunch at Subway in Cottonwood.  So don't follow the Torch Red Vert with the 500 Vet plate to Garrison Park when we don't make the left turn and continue to Subway. :)

Add Tom and Liz to the list. We'll probably follow the Torch Red Vert for that Subway picnic lunch option. :eat:

There is also a sub shop at the bottom of the hill at the intersection before the left turn to the park.  We've bought them there.
