2021 Pike Fest Cancelled

Pike Fest will not take place this fall due to health and safety concerns related to COVID-19. The Board of Supervisors recently made the decision so businesses and residents would have plenty of advance notice. Pike Fest takes a significant amount of planning and coordination, which is difficult given the uncertainty because of COVID. The Township hopes Pike Fest can return in 2022.
