The general schedule of events can be found here. We will try to stick to a 4pm start time for the Elk Toss, although other event times could vary depending on weather, attendance, driveway conditions, etc.
This year's events will benefit several local organizations, including the following:
Community Cafe (State College)
Danville-Riverside Food Bank. We also request that you bring laundry detergent to donate to the Good Samaritan Mission in Danville.
Please bring items to donate to
this year's auction, and make sure you bring money to buy
stuff in the auction. Please bring auction items that you
think that someone would actually want.
Please do not use our auction as a way to take out your trash.Feel free to dress up in your best German or Pennsylvania Dutch outfit. This is not a requirement, but be prepared to be ridiculed if you don't look German.
After the Elk Toss, there will be musical entertainment at the Old Forge Brewing Company. This year Van Wagner and Forc will perform. Old Forge has already indicated that they will be making a donation to the Gate House as part of our event.
The Danville German Society recommends anyone who has enjoyed fermented and/or distilled beverages to book a room at the Pine Barn Inn (800-627-2276 or 570-275-2071). Information about other hotels (not within walking distance of downtown Danville) can be found here.

Last year I lost my sock at the elk toss. it was white with a hole for where you put your foot in it. I left it between the big field and the bottom of the driveway. did anyone pick it up?
I can't help you with your lost sock but I find if you go to the spot you lost it you will probably find it. My Dad took me to Philly when I as a kid and told me to wait for him and he'd "be right back". That was Jan 11th 1983. I never saw him again. I have since grown up and lived a full live without him. I raised 3 kids. I have a 401K. I follow football and play in a golf league. I am currently single.
