What happens at the Italian picnic?

Everyone brings their own food for the day and their own BBQ, usually a tabletop BBQ. The park closes at 7pm, so usually people bring something to cook at lunch and supper. Oftentimes, people have extra dessert, fruit, or whatever to share with those around them. It is a day filled with Italian family and friends to connect and have a fun and relaxed time.
