A Memorial Day Party is a great opportunity to bring your friends and family together. Your local park makes a great location for a Memorial Day Party.


Make sure you call your local parks department early and reserve a space for your party.

Over-sized blankets are perfect for any picnic. Bring along some plastic sheeting to protect the blankets in case the ground is moist.

Use one picnic basket for food and bring along another for dishware, glasses and other utensils.

Extra-strength paper plates are great for a big picnic as well as colorful Milmac plates.

Thermal flasks are very important.

The local supermarket has a fantastic array of colorful plastic glasses. They add so much to the overall presentation of your picnic.

Always bring a tablecloth, and an old sheet to use as an under liner.
Flowers will add a touch of elegance to your outdoor affair.

Clean-up is a very important part of any party. Don't forget to bring plenty of plastic garbage bags and paper towels.

And most importantly, pack sunscreen, and a first-aid kit.
