COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Things to do in July

Seger Park’s Woofstock

Happening every Tuesday through September from 5:30-7:30 PM. Join the Friends of Seger Dog Park for live music. Bring your dog and enjoy beers & bevies in the dog park. Or bring a picnic blanket and enjoy a family outing in the non-dog park side of the park. Ice cream and beer vendors will be on site. 

McCall Home & School Association is hosting a meet & greet on June 28 at 5 pm. Bring the kiddos and start making friends to ease the first day of school butterflies.

Property Tax Assessments

Have you tried the Philly 311 app?

It’s so easy to report graffiti, overflowing trash cans, potholes and more using the City’s free 311 app. No need to sit on the phone waiting. Snap a pic, add a note and upload with address. Visit the App Store and Google Play to download the app. The City has stepped up their response times and it’s a game changer! Help keep our community clean by reporting issues.
