“We wanted to test out an evening market,” said board president Christen Thompson. “We’re going to play the movie ‘Free Guy’ afterwards in the park. It’s a good family movie (starring) Ryan Reynolds. We have a big inflatable screen. We’ve done movies over at Texas ballfield before, but we are going to do that (in the park) this time. This is a newer movie, so we hope it brings people out.”

For the community yard sale, a fee will be charged per space in the park. Those who are having yard sales at their homes may be included in a map for a fee. To register or for more details, search for “Birdsboro Parks and Recreation” on Facebook and choose “Events.”

Those who shop at the market will find a variety of plants, flowers, fresh fruits and vegetables, canned and pickled goods, baked items, honey, tea, pet products, jewelry,
