Let's Have Fun in the Sun
CAUTION. Our newsletter contains way too many suggestions for fun things to do and cool places to visit! We are not responsible for any exhaustion resulting from a personal inability to limit activites based upon reasonable expectations of what can comfortably be accomplished in any one day.
All kidding aside, we have provided you with: July 4th events, festivals & carnivals, outdoor concerts, movies & shows, auto and motorcycle shows, farmers markets, live theater, and live music. On the funky side, we are also following the production of a zombie movie in Bucks County. Don't forget about 5 more local treasures you may not have thought to visit, public pools for cooling off, and our summer camp guide.
