From 11 AM to 9 PM on Thursday, July 4, the 82nd Street Field at Shore Road in Bay Ridge will be the scene of a fun-filled day of celebration.

The 6th Annual Greater Bay Ridge 4th of July Picnic will feature music, games, sprinklers, face painters, kids' rides, prizes, raffles and food -- hot dogs, hamburgers, sausages, drinks, ice cream and snacks -- galore.

Admission is free. Bring a picnic basket or buy from the barbie.

No beach umbrellas, though.  They mess with the underground sprinkler system.

Live music from six local bands:

12 PM "Rebelfish"
1:20 PM "Windsor Terrors"
2:40 PM "Blues Circus"
4:00 PM "High Tides"
5:20 PM "The Groove"
6:40 PM "Frankie Marra and His Band -- Finale"

Proceeds go to benefit the 68th Pct. Youth Council and the Southwest Brooklyn Parks Task Force.
