💡Back To It, Upper Merion - But Let's Make Monday Fun
A few ways to shake off the Monday blues and support local spots.

Good morning, neighbors 👋
Hope you had a great weekend and got outside to enjoy that gorgeous weather yesterday. Only 125 more days until daylight saving time (but who’s counting?). On the bright side, it’s National Sandwich Day! Just another good excuse to grab lunch and support a local spot today.
Here’s what’s happening around the area 👇
