The House of Providence Picnic
Wednesday, June 26, 2024
Step back in time and join us at the “House of Providence Picnic” to celebrate the care and residents at St. Joseph’s Villa and Margaret’s Place Hospice.
The House of Providence Picnic has a rich history dating back to 1879, when it was first organized to raise funds for the initial care home on the grounds of our campus.
The picnic was a beloved annual event for 92 years by the community, before coming to a halt when the home was destroyed in a devastating fire in 1971. The tradition was briefly reinstated to support the care at St. Joseph’s Villa before being replaced by our Foundation’s annual gala.
At this year’s House of Providence Picnic, residents and their families, staff, volunteers and our community supporters are invited to join us and take part in traditional picnic activities such as live entertainment, BBQ lunch, bake sale, pie baking competition, games & prizes, BINGO, dunk tank, animals, craft vendors, and more!
We invite you or your organization to become a sponsor of this event and help make it a truly memorable experience for all involved.
