Kincaid Labor Day Picnic Returns With New Contests

The Kincaid Labor Day Picnic returns this weekend to the village.  The Midland Area Community Club organizes the event, which runs from Friday to Sunday right before the holiday.  The group worked hard to bring the picnic back after a hiatus, and they now look to expand the event year after year.  As such, they are introducing new contests and getting other community groups involved in the celebration. 

 

Angie Alaria is the secretary for the Midland Area Community Club.  Her organization runs events for several other special occasions, as well. 

 

 

 

The Labor Day Picnic had been a Kincaid tradition before being discontinued.  Alaria’s organization was committed to bringing it back and needed the finances and logistics to do so. 

 

 

 

The picnic begins at 5 p.m. on Friday.  The popular fried fish and bagna are on the menu and are available right at the start.  As for Saturday, the activities for that day begin at noon and include some tournaments for a variety of fun games. 

 

 

 

The parade leads off Sunday.  It begins at 1 p.m., with the line-up happening at noon.  More tournaments and a tot rod pedal pull highlight the picnic’s final day. 

 

 

 

More information on the Kincaid Labor Day Picnic is on the Midland Area Community Club’s Facebook page.
