Thanks to everyone who came out for our Annual Picnic this week! It was a wonderful evening and the weather was perfect. Evenings like this make it easy to understand why The Clifton House and its serene grounds was once a summer destination for Philadelphians looking to escape the heat of the city! Have a wonderful summer!🌞🌳🇺🇸
