Picnic in the Park Still on at UT

The University of Tampa will hold its Picnic in the Park on Sunday, April 15, noon-4 p.m., rain or shine. In case of inclement weather, the picnic and activities slated for Plant Park will be held on the Plant Hall East Verandah and in the Plant Hall lobby. The event concludes UT’s 75th anniversary celebration.

The day will feature traditional games from the Tampa Bay hotel era, such as hoops, jacks and tiddly winks. Models adorned in period costumes will stroll through the grounds, and the UT band will play “Happy Birthday” while cake and ice cream are served.

Parking will be available in the Plant Hall lot and the Thomas and West garages. The Henry B. Plant Museum, which is presenting the event with the University, will be open, and exhibits, children's activities, minaret climbs and 75 years of UT athletics are just a few of the events that will be available.
