A Note of Thanks from the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club and Inner Circle: 

There are literally hundreds of selfless volunteers who helped make Groundhog Day here in Punxsutawney, the world's greatest winter party!  It is truly impossible to thank everyone individually, but our sincerest and most heartfelt appreciation goes out to all of you! We would however, especially like to thank our Governor Josh Shapiro and his staff, Carrie Lapore and Michael Capaloney, and the staff of the Department of Community Affairs, PCN, the Pennsylvania State Police, the Punxsutawney Borough Police, Katie Laska and the Punxsutawney Chamber of Commerce, IUP and Nemacolin Woodlands, the Philettes, Alex Wilson and The Weather Channel, and all of the media.  A special thanks to our Executive Director, Marcy, the Denim Demon. 

And of course, to all the thousands of Faithful Followers of Phil who make Groundhog Day so special…THANK YOU!

And to all of you who could not make it here this year, we hope you will take up Governor Shapiro’s challenge, when he welcomed the thousands of trekkers:  "For everyone watching at home, I have a simple question for you.  What the hell are you waiting for? Come to Punxsutawney!"

We look forward to seeing you all Groundhog Day February 2, 2024. But come visit Punxsutawney, Phil and Gobbler’s Knob anytime.  We’re open year round!
