A list of best things to do in Chester County this weekend, August 6th, 7th, and 8th




What to do this weekend with your family? Here is a list of things you can enjoy with your family this weekend. There is so much to do for families and kids, especially now that most venues are open and happy to welcome you back. 



Games of chance, amusement rides, and delicious food.
Enter the Agriculture & Family Living Contests

An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box.
A riotous ride, complete with audience participation, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a delightful den of comedic genius.



The Cochranville Fire Company will host their 2021 carnival from Tuesday, August 3rd through Saturday, August 7th, located at the fire company grounds on Limestone Rd in Cochranville.

Make memories during Aladdin, Toy Story, and The Little Mermaid as the search party becomes an all-out celebration!



Touch a Truck Day is a family-friendly event, held at the Chester County Government Services Complex on Westtown Rd.,  that allows children of all ages to explore the vehicles that fascinate them.
