June 2, 2022

Summer is almost here, and Macaroni Kid Allentown is celebrating by bringing back: 5 Things to do This Weekend! Every Wednesday, check back for a list of fun things to do during the upcoming weekend! These events are either low-cost or free, family friendly, and always fun! 


1- Start the Weekend Early at the South Mall for Food Truck Thursdays (https://kutztown-to-allentown.macaronikid.com/events/626aa1b82d3da67ef64ef5d2/food-truck-thursdays)

This past week I found myself in another conversation about this fun weekly event. Can you believe that I still haven't been to Food Truck Thursdays at the South Mall? Food just tastes better out of a food truck! Plus, it's a fun way to take the night off of cooking. Bring some camping chairs and blankets and have a fun evening out with the whole family!

2- Visit Parkland Library's Block Party (https://kutztown-to-allentown.macaronikid.com/events/627ba292e91e281dfec3b8fa/block-party)

This is my favorite farmer's market in the Lehigh Valley! Every Sunday, visit the triangle in Emmaus for its weekly farmer's market. Load up on fresh fruits, veggies, meats, flowers, and more! Grab a coffee or hot breakfast and enjoy the live music. (June 5th)
