Plans for the first reunion of all branches of the George Druck family are proceeding!

We have ordered souvenirs for all families, PLUS, there will be lots of surprises. We’ll have  games (NO 3-legged races, thank goodness), raffles, special prizes, door prizes, and  activities for kids.

And don’t forget entertainment by the talented recording artists,

 Druck’s Music Ministry, featuring  our own Ron and Eileen Druck!

We also encourage everyone to bring old family photos, family histories, or other memorabilia to share.

Oh – you should also bring something edible to share and your own place setting, if you can. Don’t worry if you’re traveling. I’m sure we’ll have enough food for everyone. We’re planning to provide beverages, but haven’t gotten that all worked out for sure yet! You might also want to bring some comfortable lawn chairs.

As you probably know by now, the reunion will take place

SUNDAY, JULY 19, FROM NOON TO 6 P.M. (Rain or Shine!)

at Shenberger’s  Chapel Picnic Grounds,  New Bridgeville, PA.

You don’t know how to find New Bridgeville? Neither did I. But it’s very easy. Just follow these directions:

From the square in Red Lion:

  • Travel south on Rt 74 several miles until you come to a small rather run down restaurant on the left hand side, with a sign that says “Mack’s.” 
  • Turn left there onto Burkholder Rd.
  • Travel about 5 miles to a stop sign (this is New Bridgeville).
  • Turn left onto New Bridgeville Road. Travel about 1 mile.
  • The picnic grounds are on the right – you’ll see swings and a building.
  • Eileen and Ron Druck’s driveway is the next one past the picnic grounds – there is a butterfly  and the house number (1023) on the mail post.

From East Prospect:

  • Go south towards Craley.
  • At the blinking red light, go straight about 4 miles
  • The picnic grounds will be on the left (you’ll pass the Drucks’ driveway (#1023), and the next driveway will be the picnic grounds.

From Brogue or the south:

  • Go north on Rt. 74 to New Bridgeville Road.
  • Make a right
  • Travel approximately 5 miles to the picnic grove on the right.

To get to Red Lion from Route 83:

  • Take the Leader Heights Exit (No. ??)
  • Follow signs for Route 74 all the way through Dallastown to Red Lion, and then follow directions above.

 Coming from anywhere else- Sorry, I’m not good at directions, so I suggest you get a good map! Or log on to MapQuest or something similar (or your GPS). Remember to use 1023 New Bridgeville Road, Wrightsville, as the closest address.

If you have any questions, please email jaroutson@aol.com (Judy Druck Routson) or coolheadred@hotmail.com (Eileen Goodling Druck) or call us (717-927-6826 or 315-942-4173).
