Outdoor Games and Picnic!

Moir Park (map)

Selected By: Nadine Sehnert

Map isn't working so well. For Directions - Take 35W South to 106th St. Go west to Morgan Ave and then go north. We will be meeting at the park on the Morgan Ave Side. You can park on Morgan Ave. You can google - Moir Picnic Grounds - on Google Maps to get directions & map.

This went so well last year, let's try it again.

We will be meeting to play OUTDOOR Games - lawn games & such. We will be meeting at Moir Park in Bloomington. Moir is located just west of Central Park and is located South of Old Shakopee Road W, with 104th St W bordering the southern part of the park and Morgan Avenue South on the East side of the Park.

They have volleyball courts, frisbee golf, walking trails, playground equipment, etc. We will be bringing an assortment of outdoor lawn games - bocce, badmitton, croquet, posy pitch. Feel free to bring along what you have too! Volleyball was a big hit last year!

Bring the whole family! Bring a picnic!

Note: No pointy Jartz please - we want this to be a safe outing for all :-)

If you want to come early to help "stake out an area" & help set up please let me know. I'm not reserving any area. We will be posting MEETUP signs at the Park to direct you once you arrive.

Thanks,
Nadine

    I followed the map supplied by the website and there was not a park there and the parks in the area were not Moir park.
