Bucks County is under an Excessive Heat Warning through Sunday evening. Pennridge FISH has opened a cooling center at their annex on West Chestnut Street to give adults a safe place to escape the heat. There is real, immediate work our community can plug into.
The center needs DVDs, puzzles, nicely used games, adult coloring books, used books, cases of water, and Gatorade. Drop off at 800 W. Chestnut Street, Perkasie during regular FISH hours: Monday and Wednesday 3-5 PM, Thursday 6-8 PM, Friday and Saturday 9-11 AM. Use the back door by the kitchen and ring the bell. Let the volunteer know your donation is for the cooling center.
FISH is staffing the cooling center with volunteers throughout the warning. If you can give a few hours, call FISH at 215-257-7616.
Wednesday – Sunday, 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Pennridge FISH Org., Inc. – Annex Building

Use the side entrance near the silver handicapped ramp.
Snacks, cold beverages, games, books, puzzles, and movies will be available. This pilot program is open to adults 18 and older living in the Pennridge School District. Pets cannot be accommodated at this time.

Voters braved brutal heat to make their voices heard, and we are proud of every candidate who put themselves on the line.
Congratulations to our nominees: Mark Pinsley for State Senate (16th District), Bob Harvie for Congress (PA-1), Tim Hayes for State Rep (143rd), and Les Mavus for State Rep (145th, not pictured).
Special thanks to Pennridge’s own Bradley Merkl-Gump, who ran a great campaign focused on public education and working families. And recognition for Upper Bucks’ Lucia Simonelli, who exceeded expectations as a first-time grassroots candidate and elevated the conversation.
