The Annual Picnic, Summer Sizzle, gives residents of Martin Drive an opportunity to connect with neighbors.
Being active and interacting with your neighbors is a central part of community life in the Martin Drive Neighborhood.
Neighbors in the Martin Drive Neighborhood have an annual picnic on the second Saturday in August, from Noon to 4 at our Community Gardens and Pavilion, 1335 N 46 Street. This year, along with great food and over 80 neighbors, we enjoyed guest appearances from elected officials, resources from Milwaukee County and the City of Milwaukee, Milwaukee Police, and Milwaukee Firefighters. Children enjoyed face painting, games, checking out the firetruck and squad (horses), and great food that neighbors brought to the picnic. Thank you for the work on the Garden, and Arlene, Charlotte, Mary, Sharon, and Raymond for organizing the picnic. 2024 PICNIC PHOTOS, 2023 ART, 2023 PHOTOS, 2022 PHOTOS, 2019 PHOTOS, 2018 PHOTOS, 2017 PHOTOS, 2016 PHOTOS, 2015 PHOTOS, 2014 PHOTOS, 2013 PHOTOS, 2012 PHOTOS (1), 2012 PHOTOS (2), 2011 PHOTOS, and 2010 PHOTOS.
