From: Laura Jackson Sent: October 10, 2023, 08:00 AM To: Event Committee Subject: Community Picnic Preparation Hi Team, I wanted to gather everyone’s thoughts on organizing a community picnic for our workplace collaboration this month. We’ve all been putting in extra work lately, and I think it would be a wonderful morale booster. Any ideas for schedules and what you’d like to include? Best, Laura From: Robert Andrews Sent: October 10, 2023, 08:30 AM To: Event Committee Subject: Re: Community Picnic Preparation Hi Laura, I love this idea! Maybe we could do a picnic at the park since the weather’s been so pleasant lately. We could even have some outdoor games or a trivia contest to keep things joyful. I’m available most weekends, so just let me know what suits best for everyone. Thanks for suggesting this! Robert From: Sophia Liu Sent: October 10, 2023, 09:20 AM To: Event Committee Subject: Re: Community Picnic Preparation Good morning all, A park picnic sounds fantastic. I think a Saturday would work best so people can bring their families if they wish. I can help coordinate food and drinks — maybe we do a potluck style? Also, I’d be glad to handle sending out an RSVP form so we know how many to expect. Looking forward to it!

Maybe we can get some fun branded items as giveaways — hats, mugs, or even tote bags with our logo. I think everyone would appreciate that! Let’s lock in a schedule soon so I can check with the manager about budget for refreshments and prizes. Excited to help out! Jessica
