Join us for the Annual John Sanders Memorial Fall Picnic!
Grab your camera! Peak fall colors. Perfect weather. A beautiful environmental setting and placid lake scenes. Friendly photographers. Food and fun. Don’t miss the annual BPC fall John Sanders Memorial Picnic and outing. Sunday, October 19th, 2025 the BPC will gather at the Strahl Lake Shelter House in Brown County State Park. This is open to all BPC members and their guests.
This friendly, in person festive gathering is scheduled from 11:00am – 4:00pm. We have reserved the shelter house for the day, so if you wish to arrive earlier or stay later that is fine. This is a “bring your own food, beverage, plate and utensils”. Gathering for lunch in the shelter house is at 1:00. Because of concerns for spreading illness this is not a “pitch in, pot luck” meal, however if you wish to bring a food item or a covered dish to share, people are free to make their own choices with whatever they are comfortable with.
You can enter by either of the two entrances to Brown County State Park and there will be signs for Strahl Lake. Unless you have a season pass, entry fee per car (with Indiana license plate) is $7.00.
