Meijer 75th Anniversary Company Picnic

Meijer has been around for 75 years so they decided that they would have a company picnic to celebrate. The one for the Grand Rapids area was on Saturday. It was very nice...and very free. :) They has about 12 midway-type games for Marc to play.....and one of the workers felt bad for Samantha so we let Sam play one of the games....and with every game, whether he "won" it or not, he got to pick out a prize. They were all Oriental Trading Company type prizes. But, like I told Marc, at least we didn't have to pay $5 for him to win each prize.There were about 8 bouncy things for him to play on. Here are a couple of pictures from them.There was a radio controlled car race track that had 6 cars on it.In addition to all of the "kids" activities, there were 2 Wii stations set up to play, bingo (with "real" prizes, some "games" for older kids (like basketball, golf, soccer, and baseball). They also provided hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, cookies, and water for us. We spent about 2 hours there and had a great time...and didn't have to spend a dime! :)
