Annual Kiwanis Community Day Tomorrow

The Kiwanis Club of Phoenixville will hold their annual Community Day this Saturday, October 1st from 8 AM to 3 PM in Reeves Park. The event will include a Flea Market with more than 80 groups WHO will have items on sale or will have information about their organizations and programs. Along with the flea market, entertainment will be provided in the bandshell beginning at 11 AM with a gymnastics demonstration by members of the “Aerials” a local gymnastics club.

This year’s theme of Community Day is “Advancing Academics & Music Education” as the Kiwanis have partnered with the PAHS Band and the ‘Destinations with Directions’ student organization. All profits from Community Day will benefit these organizations and Kiwanis community programs.

As a part of Community Day, the Kiwanis Club will be selling their famous Chicken Barbecue Dinners using their famous secret recipe. The full dinners, which include a half chicken, will be available after 11 AM for the cost of only $10. The Kiwanis Club will be set up in the gazebo adjacent to the bandshell where tickets may be purchased.
