Central PA 5th Annual Hawg Day's June 19th, 20th and 21st 2026

Just a heads up to anyone interested in coming to the Central PA GTG at Blair County Game Fish and Forestry (shooting range) it will be June 19th, 20th and 21st 2026. It happens to be father's day weekend. That seems to be the only open weekend.

I know that's kind of a bummer and some people probably won't be able to make it and that is understood.

I will be updating with the usual info after the new year as usual.

 

We're still enjoying the apple sausage I picked up last spring!

 

This may be the only GTG I can in 2026.

 

One update we did get a log truck load if logs delivered so I won't have to be so stressed dropping tree's and making sure there's enough wood.
The OTHER guy who was supposed to delivered the wood that we had scheduled ended up being a no show. Luckily we found another more reliable source.
I think for starters we should finish up the pile that's up on the mountain before we move to the log truck load. The stuff that we did manage to get split on the hill has been put away.

We've had a few calls so far for the firewood ministry and have delivered a few dump truck loads to some needy people. I am surprised that we haven't gotten more calls yet.

 

That is some good stuff! You should try Blocher's breakfast sausage, bacon and their snack sticks and bologna! All made in house and I think it's neck and neck with the apple sausage. If you like smokey stuff you'll love Blocher's products.

Blocher's is only two blocks farther up the hill from Roll's.

 

Wait till the end of January. Thats when people will start running low. Not that I have the problem but that's when alot of my annual bills come due like car and homeowner insurance. Property taxes etc..

 

Have fly rod and chainsaw. Will travel for fun and food. Will be there unless Kathy says i won't. Hahahaha

 

He'll hafta be on his best behavior...

 

Wasn't planning on being bad. But this guy understands.

 

I'd ride out just for Overkill pizza.

 

I think that we talked in a text a little while back.

I am not sure exactly what kind of hookup that you're looking for.
They don't have sewage or water. They just have 120v outlets that are on the trap house.

 

This year's GTG are going to be like the last four that we've had.

There is good cold spring water that is always running for water if you'd like to bring your own containers.

Sunday is the farwell day. Any leftover food will be in the cooler's in the outdoor kitchen and you can feel free to get some food on the go if you wish.

Alcohol is allowed after hours and must stay on the trap range as long as it doesn't get out of control and only when the guns are away and the work is done for the day.

4 wheelers, side by sides are welcome as long as you check with the club to see what trails that you are allowed to ride on as long as you don't tear the place up.

Extra splitters and tractors/ machines to help with the work are welcome
