There's no better place to picnic with friends and family than at one of your favorite County parks. One of the great American pastimes, picnicking can be enjoyed at several county parks: Blydenburgh, West Hills, Southaven, Sears Bellows, Indian Island, Theodore Roosevelt, Cedar Point, and Cathedral Pines. The Parks Department supplies the tables, grills, recreational opportunities and picturesque settings, but the rest is up to you. All groups wishing to have catered picnics must use an approved Suffolk County caterer. Group permits are required for all groups of ten or more persons. Call the Parks Administration Office at (631) 854-4951 for permit and fees.
