Our President runs our meetings and sets the direction of the association.

Our Secretary handles the minutes from the meetings and sends the agenda for the following sessions.

Food Truck Friday July 22: Twisted Elegance

On Friday, July 22 we will be hosting the Twisted Elegance Food Truck.

Maybe you have been lucky enough to get some of their food at the YMCA Block Parties (before they sell out – and they always do!) They are working on the final menu for the night – but we can expect to see some of their most popular items: Philly Cheesesteak Eggrolls, Chicken Parm Eggrolls, Meatball Sliders, Short Rib Grilled Cheese, Tacos, sandwiches, and more!

Their Facebook page (full of 5-star reviews) describes Twisted Elegance: Our goal is to provide a unique experience where we bring the restaurant to you. We are committed to scratch cooking utilizing local and sustainable foods. We are here as the flavor of the community!

The truck will be at Hilltop/Stewart Field starting around 5:00 p.m.

Check them out online here!

What are we missing? Our members! Membership is way down since COVID-19 hit. PLEASE consider joining and supporting the group with your $15 donation now. Two easy ways to join:

Food Truck Fridays are Back June 10

The AMAZING food from Philly Hots! is coming to Hilltop/Steel Feild/Stewart Field! They will be in the lot off Steel Road.
Stop by and bring your appetite, but don’t wait long because once the food is gone, so are they! Setup should be done by 4:30 p.m.
Check out their menu online here: https://www.phillyhots.com/
At home or in the office, their fresh made sandwiches and meal prep kits are the brainchild of Food Network Star “Big Chef” Tom Pizzica. Everything is made fresh and from scratch and locally sourced when possible.

Volunteers Needed!

Our Civic Association needs more volunteers! All our events are run by a core group of 3-4 volunteers with a handful of others helping at events. Please consider adding your name as a “possible volunteer” and help carry on our great traditions!
