Picnicon

From Fancyclopedia 3
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Annual party held somewhere in the Chicago area since 1986, usually in June or July. It was founded by Barry and Marcy Lyn-Waitsman. As the name implies, it is a one-day outdoor picnic with no programming, but plenty of burgers and hot dogs.

Most years, it seems ISFiC, the sponsoring organization, goes out of its way to select the hottest and most humid weekend possible. Since about 2002, it has been held in a forest preserve in Deerfield, IL.
