MARTI Members gathered together with their neighbors at a Picnic organized by MARTI. The picnic is held at Brighton Dam which has a great scene of dam and river. About 60 people attanded to the picnic and they enjoyed wonderful Turkish meatballs and chicken BBQ. People had great time with their neighbors at this event which is planned to be organized each year, on the first sunday of August. The message given by most of the attendees at the end of picnic is "awakening the neighborhood with such events for a better life in terms of peace and harmony is a must. This event should be organized in a bigger picnic area with more attendees".

MARTI plans to have such a picnic organization every year with a growing interest and we would like all our members to mark their calendars and share this event with their neighbors in advance.
