  Elmwood Park Zoo Hosts Annual "Boo At The Zoo" Event

  Each year the amazing Elmwood Park Zoo in Norristown, PA hosts its annual "Boo at the Zoo" event in October, and this year was no exception. We were able to join the fun on site on Saturday, October 29 and it was a sensational day. Mother Nature was beyond kind to us, and everyone who came out to enjoy this fun day. We loved the temperature in the mid 60's and the bright sunshine we had all day. Organizers encouraged participants to bring out their little ghouls and ghosts for this annual Halloween event as the entire Zoo gets transformed for a "kooky, spooky Halloween celebration." And that they did. This family-oriented event attracted hundreds of children and their families. It was such fun to see all the fun and unique costumes that came by to visit with us. Many of the moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas were also in costume, which made things extra fun. If you haven't visited this beautiful little zoo, we encourage you to do so. The zoo's mission is to foster an appreciation for wildlife and the environment that ...

  EGGS-traordinary Fun at Maymont Park's Dominion Energy Family Easter Event

  This past Saturday brought the return of sunnier skies, warmer temperatures, and Easter activities, signaling Spring is in the air, and here to stay. Egg-cited guests of all ages came by the thousands to enjoy the annual Dominion Energy Family Easter Event at Maymont Park. This event, which has grown by leaps and bounds from year-to-year, was spread out between the Carriage House Lawn to the Robins Nature Center, to Maymont Farm. With over 100 acres to eggs-plore, guests could be seen enjoying fun activities and hands-on crafts throughout the park. They also enjoyed tempting treats from local food vendors as they listened to live entertainment supplied on three different stages. Younger guests were able to win prize-filled eggs in a Golden Egg Hunt, solving riddles along the way to find the locations of where the golden eggs were hidden. Patient First was posted in the middle of all the action, where families and friends gathered by our tent prior to seeing a certain VIP-- the Easter Bunny! We offered blood pressure screenings throughout the event and handed out promotional ...

  Lehigh Valley's Musikfest Event Never Disappoints

  Musikfest is the largest annual event in the Lehigh Valley, and once again we were able to be part of the fun! This 10-day August event is the country's largest free music festival, and it generally draws more than 1 million people to Bethlehem, PA annually. Locals love this event because it provides 10 days of great music, with enough variety to appeal to everybody; and, it also provides a huge economic impact to the city and the entire Lehigh Valley area since it attracts people from all over Pennsylvania, many of our nearby states and others from near and far. We opened the event on the first day this year - preview day - and it drew nearly 7,000 ticketed guests for the evening's headliner performance. Although we are only there for a single, day, organizers always go above and beyond to be accommodating and welcoming to us, and this year was no different. Thanks to our friends there, we were set up in a prime location to be seen by and interact with concert goers. We were right along the walkway to the ...

  Hanover Township Independence Day Event Was Spectacular

  The Hanover Township Independence Day event was just that ... Spectacular! We kicked off the Fourth of July holiday weekend by returning to one of our favorite event locations in the Lehigh Valley – Hanover Township Park at the Hanover Township Community Center in Bethlehem, PA. Even though thunderstorms were in the forecast, Mother Nature was kind to us and we enjoyed a great outdoor event that was warm, sunny and dry.  This location is literally right down the street from our Bethlehem center and we have enjoyed many events there over the years. Each time we return they welcome Patient First back with friendly, open arms. Patient First was the first sponsor to return to the Community Center as things opened up after forced shut-downs due to the pandemic. We are already looking forward to the next opportunity we'll have to participate in an event at there.

  Family Fun Times in Woodbury, New Jersey

  FAF Coalition / Lot 323 Brings Fun to Woodbury Community We participated in the FAF Coalition/Lot 323 event in Woodbury, NJ previously a few years ago, and it has always been a fun time with large attendance. Our return to the event his year was so much fun. It is amazing to see great things happening on summer Friday evenings, all organized and hosted by a group of outstanding volunteers who bring together food, games for children and families, music, vendors of all types … including us!  The FAF Coalition champions initiatives rich in arts, culture, and sustainable design as a catalyst for community development and economic revitalization. It executes those initiatives by creating engaging places and innovative experiences that transform the lives of the community, like the Lot 323 event.

  Home At Last Dog Rescue's Howloween Event Was A Huge Hit

  Home at Last Dog Rescue based in Lansdale, PA celebrated its 10th annual Howloween 5K and 1 mile Dog Walk this year, and Patient First was fortunate to participate as an event sponsor for the first time this year. We are already eagerly anticipating returning to the 2025 event, and hopefully getting even more engaged with this great organization in the year ahead. It was such a fun time! We were so lucky to score a day of perfect Fall weather, and participants came out in droves -- many in costumes (dogs included) to have fun during this Halloween themed event. Parkside Place Park in North Wales, PA hosted the event, and it was a perfect location to accommodate such a large and well-attended event. We joined many other vendors and enjoyed a day of interacting with a lot of fun people and their dogs. And yes, we all wanted to take a least one of the adoptable dogs home with us. So many canines of all shapes and sizes and ages were being "shown off" by the foster parents of these ...
