Oregon Button Picnic

Oregon State Button Society

Annual Summer Picnic

11:00 a.m.
Program: “Dorothy called them Goofies”
An outdoor (under covered pavilion) program on realistic buttons focusing on their historical significance. We all have realistics or goofies. Please bring your favorites to share.

~12:00 p.m. Potluck Begins
OSBS provides a meat entree and drinks. Members are encouraged to bring a potluck dish (entree, salad, vegetable, fruit, bread, dessert, etc.) and a smile. The Pavilion has space for preparation, but not for cooking or oven warming. There are electrical plug-ins available so crockpots will work for warming. OSBS will provide paper plates and cups and disposable tableware. Feel free to bring your own re-usables to help out our environment.

~ 1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. Button Sales
Any OSBS member is welcome to sell buttons. No fee for button sales at our annual picnic. We will be outside this year under a covered shaded pavilion.

Please join us for this annual event.
