POTTSTOWN >> Pottstown celebrated its first Community Field Day Saturday and the turnout was impressive.
Community members gathered at Chestnut Street Park Saturday to take part in healthy activities and learn more about the organizations in their neighborhoods. Information tables from area groups including Community Health and Dental, West-Mont Christian Academy, The Tri-County YWCA, Genesis Housing and Mosaic Community Land and Trust all made an appearance at the event.
As families visited tables, children enjoyed sidewalk chalk, obstacles and other fun games. As the day went on, children were able to complete a variety of physical activities at different designated stations in the park. Once they completed eight, they could receive a prize.
The event lasted from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. and offered fun ways for families to stay fit and experience their community.
