That’s why the Action Air technicians, with the help of their families, have put together a list of favorite spots to spend National Picnic Month in Indianapolis.
1. Holliday Park
Adventurous youngsters will love Holliday Park. Not only does it have one of the coolest playgrounds in the city, Holliday Park also has newly restored ruins.

Holliday Park is the ideal spot for a picnic followed by a day of exploration!
