Organized by Tom Savas, the First Annual Greek-American Picnic was held at Sylvan Lodge on Fox Island, May 17, 1931. Originally built by Ed Wines as a modest bungalow, the structure grew over time until it was large enough to accomodate a large number of boarders. Originally named Sylvan-Glen, the small community on Fox Island, just 4 miles from Tacoma's west side by water, became Sylvan in 1892 when the U.S. Postal Service opened an office there.
