Community Calendar

Join Wildlands Conservancy’s Stream Team Volunteers! We help maintain riparian buffer zones (areas planted with native trees, grasses, and shrubs) along creeks and streams in the Lehigh and Northampton Counties. This involves weeding to remove invasive plant species and inspecting and replacing tree tubes used to protect young trees.

Wildlands Conservancy's Stream Team is a great volunteer opportunity for individuals, college students, and community groups. Join us!!

Volunteers are encouraged to register for multiple dates and locations.
Fridays, June 6 – Sept. 26; Rain or shine, 8 – 11 A.M.
To sign up, register at: https://www.wildlandspa.org/streamteam/

HOOP DREAMS & FROG SCHEMES!

Forget the fairy tale you know! This fresh spin on the classic tale follows a basketball-loving princess who’d rather shoot hoops than wait around for Prince Charming. Caught between slam dunks, slam jams (yep, there’s music!), and six royal sisters’ matchmaking missions, our heroine’s world turns upside down when her game ball takes an unexpected plunge into a mysterious well.

Enter an unexpected hero: a talking frog who’s a prince under a magical spell. As friendship sparks between the princess and her amphibian ally, the dynamic duo dishes out assists, keeps it real with family, and learns that being true to yourself is the greatest win of all. With music, magic, and major attitude, the princess and the frog prince prove that sometimes your perfect match is the teammate you least expect—and that happily ever after looks different for everyone.

Based on the Grimms’ fairy tale, but with way more bounce!

Kids can get a front row seat to the action with onstage carpet seating.
PLUS: meet the characters after every show for autographs and photos.

This concert comes right after the celebration of the United States declaration of Independence. Perhaps we will be treated to the wonderful tribute to the people who worked to declare that independence and those who fought to make it a reality. The King's Brass features three trumpets, three trombones, a tuba, percussion and keyboards. The musicians know how to make those instruments just 'sing'!! The instruments blend together to create a time of innovative worship and a thrill to hear that will be enjoyed by all generations.

The King’s Brass, formed over four decades ago in Detroit, is comprised of professional musicians from across the country, who desire to use the instruments they love to lead others in praise and worship. Based out of Fort Wayne, Indiana, the group plays over 150 concerts per year from coast to coast as well as international destinations. This year, The King’s Brass celebrated its 46th Anniversary Season with trip a to the Holy Land in March 2025. We know you will thoroughly enjoy this evening's concert of sacred and patriotic classics!
