Palmer Days Kicks Off with Movie Wednesday

Palmer Township Community Days kicks off Wednesday night in grand fashion -- with a movie.

Event organizer said this year's feature is "A Dolphin's Tale."

Even with the storm this afternoon, organizers said the movie will be held rain or shine underneath the festival tent.

Board of Supervisors Chairman Dave Colver said the movie is a great way to launch the annual event, celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.

Palmer Community Days takes place from Wednesday through Sunday and features an appearance by the Phillie Phanatic Thursday and fireworks Saturday.

"The Movies in the Park is great," Colver said. "We have a giant screen and hand out free popcorn and bottled water to people."

Colver said last year's movie attracted 400 people.
