St. Jude Picnic
Wow, what an amazing day we had at the PACC's annual St. Jude Picnic. First, we want to thank all the members of the wonderful St. Jude Picnic Planning Committee. This group puts an incredible amount of time into planning, organizing, and setting up our Pavilion so everyone who attends has an enjoyable time, all to raise money for the kids at St. Jude. We can't express enough thanks to those who donated over 240 gifts, gift cards, baked goods, and prizes to help make the 2025 Picnic a huge success! To all the volunteers, know that we could not pull this off without your help! A special thank you to our friends from the New York State Police and the Albany County Sheriff's Department for attending with their climbing wall and Simulator. And finally, we want to thank all those who attended the event. Once again, attendance was up from last year and we feel we can honestly say everyone had a great time supporting the Alban Polish American Citizens Club's quest to help save lives at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
See you all next year!
