Bunny Run

Susquehanna Valley Big Twins Motorcycle Club’s 17th annual Bunny Run collection is underway! Each year in March the SVBTMC collects stuffed animals to provide to children who are patients in hospitals during the Easter season. The collection runs until March 25, right before Palm Sunday, and then the animals will be delivered to the hospitals.

The Easter-themed stuffed animals (bunnies, chicks, ducks or lambs) must be new and must have the tags left on them (for allergy concerns).

Drop off locations include the Bald Eagle United Presbyterian Church in Mill Hall, The Express Office and The Sons and Daughters of Italy in Lock Haven and SVBT Motorcycle Clubhouse in Woolrich.

St. Paul Food Pantry, 6220 Nittany Valley Drive, Mill Hall, (1 mile north of the I-80 interchange on Route 64), is open the second and fourth Wednesday of every month from 9 to 11 a.m. No documentation is required.
