The Whitesboro Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) is hosting a new event this summer for community families: Picnic at the Pool on Tuesday, June 16. This event is in coordination with Family Swim Night that takes place on Tuesdays. The time for next Tuesday, June 16, is 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Whitesboro Community Swimming Pool at 400 Wilson Street. For the first Picnic at the Pool, the PARD is partnering with Sonic to encourage families to pick up dinner and bring it to the pool.
Sonic is offering its $7 Big Deal Meal (cheeseburger, tots/fries, a drink and popcorn chicken) in conjunction with the event. Families may order on the Sonic app, call ahead at 903-564-6391, or order on the lot.
“We are really excited to expand our Family Swim Night with a Picnic at the Pool this Tuesday,” said PARD Director Penny Renfroe. “The event hours of 6:30 to 8:30 make it perfect for families to blend dinner with an evening swim. Our desire was to encourage participants to shop in Whitesboro by ordering from a local business like Sonic. We are delighted to have them partner with us for the picnic event!”
Fees for Family Swim are regular pool admission: $3 per person for patrons three years and older. Families may pick up dinner and bring it in with them upon admission. Other Sonic deals that evening include half-price cheeseburgers after 5 p.m. and a bag of ice with a gallon of tea for $5.99.
