Hey neighbors! So, who’s in charge of the Get LeBron to Phoenixville petition?
Lots going on this week. See you out there!
Attend an event or visit a local business because of this newsletter? Tell them that Phoenixville Curated sent you!
So, What’s New?
Duck, duck, silly goose (on Bridge Street!)
When the moon hits your eye like a Bluebird pizza pie…
Is that what I think it is?? A Phoenixville train station in this lifetime??
The only thing spookier than Phoenixville Haunted History Tours is tickets selling out before you can grab one
Featured Event: Taco Tuesday Crawl
Making friends as an adult is hard. Tacos make it easier. Join the local 20s and 30s Social Meetup group on a Taco Tuesday crawl on Tuesday July 28th to explore local spots, meet new people, and settle an important debate: who has the best tacos in Phoenixville?
(If you go, tell them Phoenixville Curated suggests adding Pablo’s Taqueria to the itinerary…)
