June Fete--A Daytrip for a Good Cause

The June Fete will be held June 10-12, 2011 in Huntingdon Valley, PA.  The June Fete is more than a carnival. 


For over 95 years, this local fair has been raising money to support Abington Memorial Hospital.  What makes this fair different than others?  For starters, there is a three-ring Horse and Pony show.  The June Fete takes place on 41 acres, plenty of room for people, horses, rides and fun!


Although my kids love to watch the horses, the thing they love most is the Village Fair.  The Fair includes rides, face painting, food (and more food!), and live entertainment.  They are scheduled to have a fireworks display on Friday night and there's BINGO during the day.  There's definitely something for all ages at The June Fete.



Entrance to the Village Fair and Horse and Pony Show is $4.00, Children 5 and under are FREE.  You must purchase tickets for all rides and attractions.  You can also purchase a $35 megapass for unlimited rides.  Parking is FREE.

Finally, on Sunday June 5th, you can show your support at the 5K Run/Walk and 1.5 mile Fun Run for Kids.  The Run/Walk starts and ends at Penn State Abington Campus.  Prizes are awarded in various categories.  Participants in the Run/Walk will receive 2 FREE tickets to The June Fete Village Fair.  Check out their website for registration information.

Volunteers are needed for all events.  If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out this form.

Mark your calendar, come out to have fun, and help support Abington Memorial Hospital!

  1. This is so much fun! My family and I have been going for six years, ever since we moved to Abington. It is definitely a good choice, but bring smaller children during the day on Saturday or Sunday, it gets very crowded with teens on Friday and Saturday nights.

  2. Thanks for the tip, Emily! I hope the rain holds off so we can go Saturday afternoon.
