Thoroughly enjoying one another's company in and out of the midday sun, Penn College employees congregated for a pre-summer picnic on Thursday. The get-together, in the Keystone Dining Room and its adjacent courtyard, provided a chance for co-workers to catch their breath between the end of a busy spring semester and the start of a full weekend's commencement activities.
