The Jenkintown Recreation Board is excited to announce this year’s Scare on the Square, our annual celebration of all that is tricky and treat-y in Jenkintown! Please join us Saturday, October 29 from 2 – 4 p.m. in Town Square, where we’ll have fun activities for young ghouls and goblins, including games, bobbing for apples, a mummy wrapping contest, crafts, and treats for all to enjoy. Don’t forget to wear your costume!
We are moving today’s chili festivities to the Independent Fire Company at 609 Greenwood Ave. It’s just down the street from Town Square. The schedule remains the same. Cooks should arrive by 1PM to setup. We plan to open for business at 1:30PM.

This week is Fire Prevention Week, and the Fire Departments of Jenkintown are hosting an event on Thursday, Oct. 13th, from 6:30 – 8:30 pm. This event will be held on Greenwood Avenue between Leedom Street and York Road. This portion of Greenwood Avenue will be closed to allow for this event. It’s a great opportunity to teach kids about fire prevention, and a chance to meet and say thanks to our volunteers who work so hard for our community. For more information, please see the flyer here.
Please note both public parking lots will be open but only accessible from Leedom Street.
