February 05, 2026

Good Morning, Upper Merion Area👋

If you’re serving groundhog at your Super Bowl event this weekend, I completely understand! Even my friends who “love winter” are “over it.” But, never fear. There is plenty on tap for the weekend to help us forget about how cold it is.

Let’s go check it out!

In Today’s Spotlight

Spotlight Events

Support Upper Merion Athletics

Skip cooking and feel heroic doing it. Eat at Honeygrow on February 5 (10:30–10:30) and 20% of your meal goes straight to Upper Merion Athletics. Forks up for a good cause! 🍴

Comedy Everyone Can Enjoy

Laugh it up Saturday, February 7 at Main Line Tavern! High-energy, clean comedy from Richie Byrne—seen on Comedy Central and HBO. Big laughs, no awkward ears. 😂

SUPER BOWL LX (60)

Get ready for Super Bowl Sunday — the ultimate excuse to eat wings, score with snacks, debate the commercials like they’re Oscar nominees, scream at the ref, vote on the halftime show, throw down silly bets, play bingo during breaks, and cheer (or nap) through the big game. 🏈

A few more things I thought may interest you:

  • The Ridge at Chesterbrook is searching for musicians to add to their live music rotation.

  • UMPA is looking for 7th-12th graders to audition for You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown.

  • It looks like Bahama Breeze will soon be closing their doors.

  • Apparently Costco is trying to attain Legal Seafood’s liquor license. That would be interesting.

  • If you’re planning a trip to Chick-Fil-A, best to call first. They announced on Wednesday they’re closed until further notice due to a frozen water pipe issue. 

Thank you for reading today! See you next week!
