Annual Buchanan Valley Picnic

Join us for the Annual Buchanan Valley Picnic, on Saturday, August 26, 2023, from noon until dusk, rain or shine. Homecooked Family-Style Ham and Chicken dinners will be served all day.  Price is $16.50 for adults; $7.00 for children ages 6 to 12; and ages 5 and under are free.  To be held at the picnic grove at the St. Ignatius Loyola Church at 1095 Church Road, Orrtanna, the picnic has been a tradition for over 175 years.   Nestled in the quaint, and beautiful hills of Buchanan Valley, historically known for the capture of Mary Jemison in 1758 by the Indians, it is an old-fashioned picnic with games for the children, drawings, bingo, music, and good food.  For more information, contact St. Ignatius Loyola Church at 717-677-8012.
