APT DC invites you to join us for our Annual Summer Picnic! This year, as we celebrate our chapter's 45th anniversary, we will be enjoying the historic and beautiful Oak Hill Cemetery in Georgetown. Enjoy a picnic lunch and spend the day exploring the winding paths of the tranquil cemetery and marveling at the incredible monuments and memorials within this wonderful cultural landscape.
Attendees will be welcomed with a brief lecture on the history of the cemetery by Oak Hill Archivist & Collection Manager Laura Thoms and an opportunity to see inside the 1849 Renwick-designed chapel. Laura has also curated a self-guided walking tour of important sights and monuments in the cemetery as well as a SCAVENGER HUNT that will allow you to explore even more! Prizes will be given for completion of the hunt with a special prize to the first to complete it!
Food/Beverages: APT DC will be supplying Stachowski's sandwiches and beverages.
What to bring: Picnic blankets, lawn chairs, sunscreen, bug spray.
Parking: Limited parking is available inside the cemetery near the event site. Street parking is available within the adjacent neighborhood. We encourage you to carpool or take public transportation.
Pets: Please note that dogs are prohibited in the cemetery.
