The Bellwood-Antis community is invited to DelGrosso\u2019s Amusement Park on Friday, July 21 to celebrate the 87th annual Bellwood-Antis Community Picnic and 2006 all-class reunion.
\nA fun-filled day is planned complete with fireworks, A Star Search competition, chicken barbecue, hometown raffle, games and a golf tournament.
\nIndividuals are also asked to share their memories on this special day. Anyone with vintage photos or memorabilia from the early years of Bellwood and Antis Township or DelGrosso\u2019s Amusement Park (Bland\u2019s Park) are asked to bring them to Shed No. 4 on picnic day to share the memories with neighbors and friends.
\nAlso this year, residents of Bellwood-Antis and alumni will be invited to vote in the Bellwood-Antis Community Picnic logo contest.
\nLocal talent has worked hard, submitting logo designs to the committee. Of those works submitted, four will be chosen to display as options for the BACP logo. When receiving the ride and slide bracelets or picking up chicken barbecue tickets, a ballot will also be given, which is good for one vote. So take the time to vote for a logo and support local artisans.
\nOnce again, all Bellwood-Antis School District students in grades pre-school through 2006 graduates may stop by to get free passes, good for all-day waterworks, rapids and ride passes.
\nThe passes are also available for school age children of graduates who have registered for the all-class reunion. Free ride pass bracelets may be picked up at the red and white tent, next to the main ticket plaza between 10:30 a.m. and 7 p.m.
\nActivities will begin with 15th annual Bellwood-Antis Championships Golf Tournament. This event is open to youths grades Kindergarten through 12th grade. Categories are K through 5; 6 through 8 and 9 through 12. Prizes will be awarded. Registration begins at 10 a.m.
\nAt 11:30 a.m. an adult golf tournament will be held. Also, the all-class reunion begins.
\nChildren\u2019s games begin at 2 p.m. and the Bellwood-Antis Lions will host a free bingo from 3 to 6 p.m.
\nThe Farm Show chicken barbecue will begin at 5 p.m. and the 13th annual Bellwood-Antis Star Search, sponsored by First Commonwealth Bank and the Bellwood-Antis Lions Club, will begin at 5:30 p.m. Tickets are available at Sue Whiteford\u2019s Beauty Salon and Rossi\u2019s Corner Store.
