Some of the Ione Picnic Association Committee Members

What a thrill to have this longstanding California celebration mobilize into the 21st century - and how convenient! Now you can get celebration information, link to related websites and download contest and parade entry forms all at one place!

As you explore our website, be sure to take a look at some of the pictures from Ione Homecomings long ago, as well as updated images of the Ione Picnic Association's most recent activities.

While visiting, make a note of Ione Homecoming Picnic's traditional date - the second weekend in May. Yes...Sunday of that weekend is always Mother's Day, but what a great way to get everyone together and have an old fashioned family picnic.
After all, that's how is started over 130 years ago.

So take a look and then plan to be at the Ione Homecoming Picnic in Ione, California the second weekend of May - rain or shine!
