From staff reports
St. Joseph Parish in Lucinda will host its annual 4th of July celebration from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. Tuesday on the parish grounds in Lucinda.
The festival, which is Clarion County’s oldest Independence Day event, has also scheduled two pre-festival kickoff events again this year. They are a 5K run/walk that starts at 8 a.m. Saturday at the Lucinda Train Station and a handmade quilt auction and sale that is taking place through Sunday.
Festivities scheduled Tuesday include all-you-can-eat chicken and ham dinners, games of skill and chance for all ages, a concessions stand, extensive Chinese auction and children’s features.
The celebration will be held rain or shine on the canopy-covered parish grounds.
