Mount Saint Francis Picnic to rock Floyds Knobs [Southern Indiana]

Annual festival will animate usually tranquil retreat center on Saturday.

Cars on adjacent US Highway 150 are usually the loudest noises heard around Mount Saint Francis, home of the Conventual Franciscan province of Our Lady of Consolation. On Saturday, many of those cars will be turning into the drive and parking in the fields, as the friars of "The Mount" host their annual picnic.

St. Anthony's Picnic heating up in Clarksville [Southern Indiana]

Annual picnic, chicken dinner bring 'em out in Clarksville.

For those looking for something to do other than Hullabalou, St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Clarksville will hold its Parish Picnic Friday and Saturday.

Booths, live music, beer, raffles, crafts, and a chicken dinner are among the highlights to the annual event.

In the interest of full disclosure, this writer will be pouring beer in the air-conditioned comfort of the gambling area (also known as the school gymnasium) on Friday evening and will be proudly flouring pound after pound of chicken on Saturday morning and afternoon.

Beer, pull tabs, and carnival games: It's church picnic season [Southern Indiana]

If you want to go to a church picnic (or a few) in Southern Indiana this summer, here's where you can find them.

I just finished a long weekend working at the church picnic of my childhood parish. I have a lot of fun working the picnic—my family works one of the game booths, and it's a blast watching people win prizes. But, even more fun than working a church picnic is being on the other side of the game booth and experiencing the games, rides, and fun as a patron rather than an employee.
