| Abstract: | The Meadville Crawford County Picnic Association was formed when a group of Cleveland, Ohio, families, originally from Meadville and Crawford County, Pennsylvania, gathered in 1917 for a picnic at a lakefront park in Cleveland. Each year thereafter, a picnic was held at either Edgewater Park in Cleveland, or Lakewood Park in Lakewood, Ohio. The association also sponsored luncheons, dances, and theme parties throughout the year. The collection consists of minutes, receipts, budget statements, correspondence, flyers, membership lists, and attendance records. | |
