Picnics in Laramie

Outdoor life appealed to the local residents who took advantage of all nature had to offer in the lovely Laramie Plains and mountain ranges that surrounded them. Town officials often organized large picnics as a way for locals to get to know their neighbors and to enjoy themselves. The group at the picnic shown here had gathered for a Christmas celebration as indicated by their wardrobes of hats and warm weather clothing.
