Philadelphia - City of Brotherly (and Sisterly) Love! |

The 2013 Great American Wiknic will grace Philadelphia this year as part of the worldwide Wiknic program. It will be held on Saturday June 22, 2013 between 1pm-5pm EST at the Picnic Grove in Penn Park, at the University of Pennsylvania, within walking distance of 30th Street Station.
Penn Park is 24 acres of beautiful, continuous open space on the eastern edge of campus that includes athletic and recreational fields owned and operated by the University. Penn Park is adjacent to Walnut Street from the north, South Street from the south, Amtrak's Northeast Corridor rail line from the east, and SEPTA's Regional Rail line from the west.
A Wiknic is a great easy-in to real life Wikipedia culture, and can lead to greater participation in the wiki-community slowly growing in Philadelphia! Sharing of foodstuffs, like sharing knowledge, is invited and encouraged; accordingly, the Wiknic will be run on potluck basis.
No... guns, illegal drugs, smoking, climbing trees, noise makers, threatening or lewd behavior, public urination, cleats (sharp shoes), contact sports, feeding animals, pets off leash, bikes on bridges, skateboards, camping, littering, bad attitudes.
Depending on a permit, drinking alcohol (if legal age) may be permitted. Same with grilling (if legal age). We'll explore this, but assume both are not allowed, for now.
The Wiknic adopts common sense safe space policies. Any discriminatory or harassing behavior is forbidden and will result in being required to leave. Everyone should enjoy themselves and feel comfortable!
Use common sense, civility, and good will. We're here to have fun while representing Wikipedia to the wonderful city of Philadelphia.
