No. Tornadoes have been recorded in Girardville since official records began in 1950 and no significant tornadoes (F2 or stronger or causing a death) have ever been recorded in Girardville. However, at least one tornado has been recorded near the town: an F0 that touched down just outside Fountain Springs in 1954. Tornadoes as strong as F2 have been recorded elsewhere in Schuylkill County, so even if it hasn't been hit yet, that doesn't meant it can't be hit.
