Hope you can come out for a great event with our friends at Tabor and Revive Radio!

🎢✨ SKATING AWAY -- Come careen into summer break with a FREE family skate night this Thursday May 26th at Philadelphia's most exciting roller rink...

It's not just fun, it's personal enrichment. Roller skating is a fantastic social activity that develops coordination and balance while engaging practically every muscle. Even better: the mere act of moving together in a joyful group reinforces feelings of togetherness and acceptance. It's no coincidence that Tabor Community Partners - TCP planned this event as part of their "Strengthening Families" initiative.

Strong families = strong communities! Please join TCP and friends as we skate our hearts out for 3 hours with pizza, venders, raffles and more. Dress to express! This'll be a camera-friendly affair full of photo-ops, with several local news outlets on-hand to capture all the action. πŸ•πŸ₯€πŸ“ΈπŸŽ€

Guests can also learn more about great resources like jobs, skills, media and more. It's a multi-faceted event with something for everyone (even non-skaters). NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED for this evening of community fun. Free admission covers skate rental plus refreshments. Hope to see you there!
