Hey Phoenixville,
Not sure what happened to summer, but happy Labor Day! I'll keep the intro short because there's a lot to get to, so let's get into it.
Here's what's happening.
Featured Event
Not Pizza is throwing a big outdoor party in the parking lot of the Phoenixville Foundry on Friday. Expect fresh pizza, Not Pizza vodka drinks, Sly Fox, and plenty of fun. No tickets needed, just show up hungry. All ages are welcome, though you will need to be 21 or older to drink.
Not Pizza Pizza Party (4 PM, Friday, The Foundry Parking Lot,2 N Main St)
City Updates
Check out a few positive updates from this month's borough council meeting below (and as a quick reminder, this is an unofficial community recap put together by me and not affiliated with the borough)
Firebird Festival 2026 Details
The Firebird Festival is officially set for this year! Mark your calendars for Saturday, December 12th. The Firebird is returning to Reservoir Park from 4:00 to 9:30 PM. This year’s build features an incredible new artist design showing a phoenix in a pouring steel pot to honor our town's history. It’s going to be a gorgeous burn!
100 New Trees for the Borough
The Tree Advisory Commission is gearing up to plant 100 trees around the borough this fall, and they are actively looking for location suggestions! If your neighborhood or a local spot needs some fresh shade, reach out to the TAC email ([email protected]) to let them know.
Cohen Park Naming
The home of the Phoenix Wheel officially has a name. Borough Council just unanimously voted to name the beautiful park space at 381 Bridge Street "Cohen Park." The next time you're walking the trail to check out the historic Phoenix Wheel, you'll know exactly what to call it.
Reeves Park Memorial Refresh
A beautiful update is coming to the corner of Reeves Park. The Civil War memorial housing the historic Griffin Gun is getting a community-driven refresh. Thanks to Diversity in Action Phoenixville, the space may soon feature new juried artwork, educational history, native plantings, and a sitting bench to make it a true gathering space.

Every sales leader knows the feeling. You walk into a pipeline review with a number you believe in, and twenty minutes later, you're defending every line item to a CEO who just wants to know what's actually going to close.
HubSpot Sales Hub ends that conversation. Every deal, every rep's activity, and every buyer signal are all in one place and updated automatically. So your forecast is built on what's actually happening. And when you present that number, you can stand behind it.
