Niagara-on-the-Lake residents are invited to bring a dish and pull up a seat as the Joyous NOTL summer picnic returns for its fifth year Saturday.

The community potluck will run from noon to 2 p.m. July 25 at McFarland House, located at 15927 Niagara Parkway Recreational Trail.

Guests are asked to bring something to share with the group.

The annual picnic offers residents a chance to gather outdoors over food in one of the town’s historic riverside settings.

Organizers have also set aside Sunday, July 26 as a rain date if poor weather forces the Saturday gathering to be postponed.

The event is open to anyone who would like to attend. No other requirements were listed on the event flyer beyond bringing a contribution for the shared meal.
