 Lower Merion and Narberth - Stuff you should know Memorial Day Edition Memorial Day is the unofficial start to Summer around here, so we thought it was time for a quick update. Here are a few LM and Narberth events and activities happening this weekend and in early June:

Lower Merion and Narberth - Stuff you should know New Year 2024 Edition! We get all sorts of different questions about Lower Merion and Narberth, so we put together a few quick items of interest every month or so. If you have a friend who needs this info emailed to them, have them use this link  Christmas Tree Collection Lower Merion Township will begin the collection of trees (which must be placed curbside) during the first two weeks in January, on your regular refuse collection day. Residents may also dispose of Christmas trees at the Public Works Complex located at 1300 N Woodbine Avenue in Penn Valley, Monday through Friday 8am-3pm and Saturday 9am-2:30pm. All ornaments, stands and other decorations must be removed. Narberth residents can put their Christmas trees on the curb on Tuesdays nights in January. They will be collected with the regular Wednesday brush pickups in January. All ornaments, stands and other decorations must be removed.  Remember to bring reusable bags! Narberth and Lower Merion both have ordinances restricting the use of plastic bags by stores. LM’s new ordinance goes into effect on January 21.  LM trash holiday schedule In Lower Merion, a refuse and recycling holiday collection schedule will be in effect for January 1st through 5th, due to the New Year's Day holiday and also January 15th through 19th, due to the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. There will be no refuse or recycling collection on Monday, January 1 or Monday, January 15. More info here:  Narberth Trash/Recycle Changes Narberth's new trash and recycling company, J.P. Mascaro, has already started pickups on the old schedule. Starting on February 6, the new schedule moves trash and bulk pickup from Fridays to Tuesdays. Brush is still Wednesdays, and recycling is still Thursdays. More details here.  Narberth now recycles more items Borough residents can add more (unbagged) items to their recycling bins for Thursday collections. More details here.  That's a lot of trash info! Sometimes it's tough for residents to keep up with all the trash and recycling rules and schedules, which is why we include so much in these updates. We also keep a trash & recycling info web page updated with everything LM and Narberth residents need to know. And lastly, a couple of non-trash items to mention:  The Borough has a new Manager Matt West was the Borough's director of technology and Assistant Manager a few years back and recently served as Interim Manager. Now he has been appointed as Narberth's Borough Manager. Say hello next time you're in Borough Hall!  Quizzo Championship - February 3

Pumpkin Painting at the Library  Scarecrow Building at the Library  Witches of Narberth Cindy and I have a massive pile of candy, decorations, and a witch costume on our dining room table, and that can only mean one thing - The Witches of Narberth! For anyone who's new around here, this is a free scavenger hunt that sends kids all over Narberth's downtown, searching for witches with Halloween treats. Find all the witches, and you get a prize at the end! Details at narberthonline.com.  Halloween Bike Ride Join Narberth Cycling Club for our 7th annual Halloween costume "PEDAL PARTY"! We are gathering at 5pm on the Narberth Ave "bridge approach" (the section of Narberth Ave between the old Little Gym building & the stop light at Haverford Ave). After a quick review of road safety rules, we'll depart for a 3-mile costumed bike ride to check out Halloween houses while we jam out to spooky tunes. The crowd-sourced route & full event details will be posted below in "discussion" tab as the event gets closer. Feel free to invite neighbors and friends! ********PLEASE NOTE******** (1) Bike Helmets & front/rear bike lights are required. (2) This is an all-ages, all-levels, no-drop ride, but NO BIKES WITH TRAINING WHEELS & NO BALANCE BIKES are allowed for ensuring the safety of the large group of bicyclists. (3) Costumes are strongly encouraged!  Narberth Halloween Parade Volunteers from Girl Scout Troop 7048 are helping us out with this year's Parade. They will also be fundraising by selling pretzels and apple cider down by Borough Hall, at the end of the parade. Please bring a few bucks to support them. There should be a few giveaways at the end too, like crayons, pencils, coloring books, etc, from the Narberth Police, the Narberth Public Works Department and the HSAs from BC and Welsh Valley. As usual, the great volunteers from our Narberth Fire Department will lead the way with an engine or two. At the back of the parade, watch out for a Haverford Ave Halloween-style performance from the Dance Xpress dancers!  E-Cycle Event - October 28 LM and Narberth residents can bring unwanted electronics to the dump on Saturday morning. (I know this has nothing to do with Halloween, but it does happen to be scheduled this weekend!) Details here.  |
