Elk Toss Reminders #1

Here's what you should bring to the Elk Toss:
  • Items to Auction
  • Cash (or checks) to pay for events and the auction
  • Non-perishible food to donate to the Danville-Riverside Food Bank
  • Jeans to donate to the Good Samaritan Mission of Danville
  • Food to share with others
  • Lederhosen
  • Ability to speak Pennsylvania Dutch
If you plan to stay in Danville overnight, you should book a room. We recommend the Pine Barn Inn. It is within walking distance of downtown, and they like Lederhosen.
