Join in the fun at Charlestown United Methodist Church on July 19 from 2-4 p.m., when they will host Sundae Funday! Come and enjoy a free brownie sundae and top it with an array of toppings. You can sit under the tents and chat with neighbors or friends you may not have met yet or play some yard games. For the kids, there will be a bounce house and a make it and take it craft table. If you prefer, you can bring your own lawn chair and enjoy the shade trees. All are welcome!

The 23rd Annual Charlestown Summer Festival and Cruise In is Saturday, Aug. 1, from 3-7 p.m. at the Charlestown Township Park. Be sure you mark your calendar and bring the whole family. There will be something for everyone. Outback Ray and His Amazing Animals will entertain at 4:30 p.m. Bill Starcher will be there displaying his awesome art. The kids will love the inflatable play area and can try their hand at putting out a "fire." All for free!
