the 2nd ANNUAL VEBLEN BIRTHDAY BBQ BASH!
The Friends of Herrontown Woods (FOHW) will be hosting an event on the grounds of Veblen House at Herrontown Woods. Food, drink, games, and socializing, to celebrate the 139th birthday of mathematician and visionary Oswald Veblen. He and his wife Elizabeth donated Herrontown Woods as Princeton's first nature preserve in 1957.
We will provide a grill, hotdogs, hamburgers, and refreshments. Potluck offerings of food/drink are encouraged.
In honor of Veblen's mathematical work on trajectories, we'll have places to play volleyball, badminton, and pingpong, along with tours of raingardens, the horserun, and other features of the refurbished grounds. Also, some art activities for kids.
PARK IN THE VEBLEN DRIVEWAY AT 474 HERRONTOWN ROAD.
Or park in the main Herrontown Woods parking lot off of Snowden Lane, and walk up to the house (scroll down at this link for map). Facilities if needed are a short drive away at Smoyer Park.
