Community Leaders, Changemakers, and Friends
We’re excited to invite you to the Inaugural Texas Safe Summers Picnic — a day of peace, purpose, and people-powered connection — happening Saturday, June 28th, from 11 AM to 5 PM in the heart of Marquez, Texas.
Hosted by Cognitive Justice Intl., this is more than just a picnic — it’s an opportunity to gather and co-create the vision for a holistic community retreat space rooted in healing, equity, and restoration.
🌿 What to Expect:
A beautiful acre pond open and accessible for quiet reflection or fun in the sun
Games and family-friendly activities like sack races, kites, lawn games, and more
A big tent for shade, porta-potties, cold water, refreshing drinks, and delicious food — all provided
A chance to explore the land, connect with like-minded individuals, and be part of something much bigger than a single day

✨ We encourage you to bring your own tents, chairs, sunscreen, and any additional games or supplies you'd like to share. This is a picnic in the truest sense — come as you are, and bring what brings you joy.
This event is about building together — taking a moment to see the canvas before the picture is complete. Your presence and your spirit are part of what will make this vision real.
🫱🏽🫲🏾 Bring your family. Invite your neighbors. Come share in community.
Let’s celebrate what we’ve already built and dream bigger about what’s still possible.
With gratitude and hope,
The Cognitive Justice Intl. Team
