Boston Public Garden Picnic
Join FOI at the Boston Public Garden for a group picnic! This will be a great opportunity to make some new friends and get to enjoy the beauty of Boston together. Bring your own dinner (or some snacks to share) and a blanket to sit on. Look for our group seated on the grass near the Public Garden entrance at Arlington St & Boylston St, located near the Arlington T Stop.
Location: Boston Public Garden
Date/Time: Sunday, September 21st at 5pm.
Fall Foliage Walk!
There is nothing like Boston in the Fall when the leaves are changing color and the air is crisp! Join us on a walk through the beautiful & historic Mount Auburn Cemetery in Watertown, MA. Located right off the 71 and 73 bus routes. In the center of the cemetery is Washington Tower, built in 1854, which is open to the public to climb up and get some picture worthy views from the top! And pro tip… grab a hot latte or apple cider on your way to this event at the nearby Intelligentsia Coffee or Starbucks!
Location: Mount Auburn Cemetery (meet at the Main Cemetery Gate Entrance)
Date/Time: Saturday, October 25th @ 12pm
