Moore Lake Park was improved and expanded in 2024. 4 Picnic tables are under the shelter but you can  bring a lawn chair if you prefer that.  Restrooms are nearby.  There is a nearby new playground and a  fishing pier also. Amble parking in the improved lots.

 

Do you have any lawn games? Outdoor Jenga, Bocce ball game, Corn hole game -(also know as bags)?

 

If you haven't been to one of our PUAM picnics, I hope you will join the fun and camaraderie.

 

P.S.    Pray for good weather!

The PUAM meetings are monthly meetings to support each  other and to share upholstery knowledge. We’d love to have  your input on topics you’d like to have discussed or  presented on different upholstery techniques. It is easiest to  show techniques in a shop environment but we are open to  meeting in rooms provided by restaurants, libraries,  community centers, etc. If you have a topic or location that  we can use, please contact us at host@upholsterymn.org.  Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank  you!*All dates and locations are subject to change so watch  the newsletter each month for any unforeseen changes.  Thanks!
