More people than can fit

260 parents and children, plus another 30 staff and volunteers gathered in Golden Gate Park for our annual Fourth of July Picnic. We reserve the same spot every year in the picnic area above the children’s playground.

Twenty Five years ago we gathered at Raphael House rooftop garden for this event, but by 1994 we had too many people in our AfterCare Program. That’s when we made the move to Golden Gate Park.

Most of the folks who showed up have stayed at Raphael House within the last few years, but we had a few come back who stayed with us in the 1980’s and early 1990’s. It’s a chance to re-connect, and show how well they’re doing. Good looking bunch of folks.
