I had a close call on those rocks in my college days too, similar story to Charlie's. The wind direction changed while we were out on the third rock and as we swam for shore I, being the weakest swimmer, was lagging behind. When I picked up my head to check my progress I was headed for open water. I had just made it to 2nd rock when my friends finally missed me and had helped me up because I was about spent. Never went out there again.

My greatest memories of Picnic Rocks was having Easter sunrise service there - maybe in 1974 ('75)? It was very mild that year and it was a beautiful service. Subsequent years they planned to have the services there again, but we had 'normal' years and ended up in the gym/hall at our home church - Bethel Baptist!
