Come join us tomorrow evening for our final movie night! We're showing "Lilo & Stitch" (2025) at 8:00 PM, with Stitch being there to meet with the kiddos and their families at 7:00 PM at Jim Dietrich Park.

Remember, this event also includes Opportunity House's Fill the Truck! Since the kids are going back to school, let's clean out our closets and help fill the truck by bringing gently-used clothing, furniture, and other household items to help neighbors in need. The truck will be there from 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM before the movie. Every bit helps!

(Also, check back here for any rescheduling of this event due to inclement weather.)

Thank You, Muhlenberg Township!

What a weekend! We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone in our community who came out to celebrate RiverFest with us as we marked 175 years of Muhlenberg Township and 10 years of RiverFest.

For the past 10 years, RiverFest has continued to grow because of this community's incredible support. Whether you came out for the music, food, vendors, activities, fireworks, or simply to spend time with family and friends along the river, your continued support is what makes this event so special. We are grateful to everyone who has helped make RiverFest a tradition that our community can look forward to each year.

We also want to extend our sincere appreciation to all of this year's sponsors for their generous support. Your contributions help make RiverFest possible and allow us to continue growing and improving this community celebration.

A special thank you to our Title Sponsor, Cornerstone Law Firm, for helping make this year's RiverFest one to remember.

And, as always, a huge thank you to our Premiere Sponsor, Reading Blue Mountain & Northern Railroad, whose generous support year after year for RiverFest and Muhlenberg Township is always greatly appreciated.

Thank you to our sponsors, vendors, performers, volunteers, staff, and everyone who helped make this year's RiverFest such a tremendous success.

Most importantly, thank you to the community for continuing to show up and support RiverFest year after year. We are already looking forward to the next one!

Thank you, Muhlenberg Township, for making 10 years of RiverFest a celebration to remember.
