Summer is the perfect time for an outdoor picnic! Company picnics are a great way for corporate businesses to promote team building, boost company morale, and give back to employees. If you’ve been chosen to plan your company’s picnic, then you’ve come to the right place. 

There are many reasons why companies choose to host their summer picnics at Independence Grove, but the primary reason we hear most often is because we’re a one-stop shop for all their needs. Not only do you get a unique venue and a dedicated Event Coordinator, but also award-winning catering from Catering by Michaels. Win win!

THE ULTIMATE PICNIC EXPERIENCE

We understand that it’s not always realistic to carve out extra time to plan a company-wide event when you still have your regular job duties to attend to. That’s why one of our extremely talented Event Coordinators will work closely with you to choose the perfect space (North Bay Pavilion or the Grassy Knoll), design a delicious menu, and plan entertainment and activities based on the style and theme of your picnic. From your very own carnival rides and antique style concession stands to authentic Chicago-style hot dog and pizza carts — we guarantee an unforgettable experience for your guests.

Providing a high quality, delicious meal conveys one very important message to employees: we care about you!
