Held at the picnic grove on the grounds of the picturesque St. Ignatius Loyola Church, 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.

 

The picnic has been a tradition for over 175 years.
