I have a new obsession. Jason Kelce, the Philadelphia Eagles center. Our hometown hero for twelve straight seasons, having started 149 consecutive games as of last year’s Super Bowl. You might ask, why now? He has been a staple in the Eagles’ organization for over a decade, so why the hype now?

South Wayne PorchFest 2023
Saturday, September 23rd
11:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Our event is a great day for everyone. A day of Live Music played on the porches of South Wayne. Free and Open to the public.
At 11:30, The Radnor Pep Band marches through the "music streets". At Noon, we start off strong with 13 different acts - a children's entertainer, jazz, folk, rock, a capella, Americana, classical strings, singer-songwriters, and New Orleans Jazz.
The music and variety – another 49 musical acts - last all day. As we say, "We have everything from a capella to zydeco." The streets are closed to motor vehicles so everyone is free to walk from house to house and hear something that is bound to catch their ear and hopefully their heart.
