Pirates Say 'Arg,' Eat Artichokes This Week

The Lower Macungie Township Library is ready to help you kick off the week with some family fun with the next installment of its iDig Family Fun Night, scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at the library. Advanced registration is required, as it is with all iDig sessions, and this week’s theme is “Arg! We Be Pirates,” deemed suitable for ages 3 and up.

The Lower Macungie Township Planning Commission is scheduled to meet on Tuesday at 7 p.m. and there is a placeholder meeting for the Planning & Zoning Committee on the calendar for 4 p.m. Thursday, if needed, according to the Lower Mac township website.

It’s likely too late to join in on the fun, but Junior Art Camp, for kids in grades 3 through 8, runs from 1 to 3 p.m. this week the township website says. Might be a good time to head over to the Lower Mac Community Center to pick up flyers for NEXT year’s camp offerings. Advance planning is key!

It's important to plan some grown-up play time too! Zumba your way to fitness and some fun this summer at Macungie Fire Co. #1 on Mondays and Wednesdays at 7:30 p.m. Drop-in punch cards are available at a discounted rate.

The Macungie Farmer’s Market is ready to help you stock the pantry with the bounty of the season on Thursdays in Macungie Memorial Park from 4 to 7 p.m.
