Rainy Weather Alters Community Day Plans — Cow Chip Bingo Still on at 12:30 PM
Feasterville Trevose, PA · September 26, 2026
Keep the rain boots near the door this morning. Soggy turf has scrambled the weekend's marquee outdoor gathering, but plenty of local routines and resilient traditions are carrying on regardless.
The Lead
Unsettled autumn weather has forced Lower Southampton Township officials to cancel today’s annual Community Day at Russell Elliott Memorial Park. The anticipated festival, originally slated to run through the afternoon with live music, car showcases, first responder honors, and family amusements, was called off late yesterday as persistent rain threatened to soak the park’s turf fields.
However, one longstanding tradition is pushing ahead under the gray skies: the annual Cow Chip Bingo contest will still take place on site at 12:30 PM to determine this year's raffle winners. Park staff will record the grid results and post the winning numbers on official township channels shortly after noon. While organizers expressed disappointment over shelving the rides and food trucks, planning now turns toward rescheduling community celebrations for clearer weather later in the season.
