Bethlehem United Church of Christ (6400 Oak Hill Road) will be hosting their 12th Annual Ice Cream Social to benefit Habitat for Humanity on Sunday, July 8 from 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM.  Each year, Bethlehem helps raise funds and builds a home in the Evansville Area with other UCC and DOC churches.  Their fundraising goal this year is $5,000 toward their portion of the house.  This is one of many activities the church does to raise funds and awareness for Habitat. 

This event features grilled hamburgers, hot dogs, picnic sides, and of course...ICE CREAM!  There are no set menu prices, but a free-will offering for Habitat for Humanity will be accepted.

The Evansville Museum will hold its annual Fourth of July Members’ Party and Family Celebration, allowing guests to enjoy the fireworks in a relaxing, stress-free environment. For 25 years, the Evansville Museum has presented this annual July 4th Members Celebration on the Museum’s back lawn.

Members can bring lawn chairs and/or blankets for an evening on the Museum’s back lawn overlooking the Ohio River. Food and drinks will be available for purchase at this event. Carl Rodenberg and his band will play jazzy/blues music  and clowns will be painting faces.

For children to get the most out of their education they need to be as healthy as possible – and getting immunized is one of the best ways to keep kids from getting sick. But for families who lack quality health insurance, finances can be an obstacle. The EVSC School-Community council, in collaboration with several other groups will sponsor free school and sports physicals, immunizations, and dental screenings for Kindergarten, 6th, and 9th grade students who are residents of Vanderburgh, Warrick, or Posey Counties and are without insurance or have insurance that doesn’t cover these services.

The Back to School Blitz is scheduled for Saturday, August 4th from 9:00am – 1:00pm at ECHO Community Health Care’s Main Campus clinic, located at 315 Mulberry Street in Evansville.
