Did you grow up in Royersford, or the surrounding area's?

Are there some things that will forever remind you of the area?

Whether you left for college, or left to go thrive in a career, Royersford will always have a place in your heart.

Here are some signs you most certainly grew up in Royersford.

1. Annamarie’s is your favorite place to get breakfast.

Although the line may be out the door on the weekend, the pancakes are bigger than your face and to DIE for.

2. Your favorite childhood park is Manderach Park.

Even though its in the town right next to Royersford, it is one of the biggest parks with huge slides, a tire swing, recreational fields, and a track.

3. Suzy Jo Donuts

Probably one of the best donuts you will ever have. It has moved from its original location in Royersford where it was since 2004, to right down the street in Limerick, behind Dairy Queen and The Peanut Bar.

4. The Royersford Wawa is the best place to “meet up.”

No matter where you live in the area, everyone knows where Royersford Wawa is. So if you need to meet someone to follow them somewhere, Rofo Wawa is the spot.

5. If it's between 7 a.m. – 7:30 a.m. or 2:20 p.m. – 2:30 p.m., there is no way in hell you are getting past Spring-Ford Senior High-school.

The traffic is ridiculous with all the students that can drive to and from school, and everyone trying to get in and out.

6. Lakeside Amusement Park

No matter how young or old you are, you have heard of the amusement park that used to be in Royersford. It was located right on Township Line Road, right where the Kohls and Giant now stand. The amusement park is a historical past of Royersford, and its history lives on.

7. The Sacred Heart Fair.

Every year the Sacred Heart Fair is in the heart of Royersford, right at Sacred Heart Church, and even though it may be small, you bet that every one and their mother is at that fair.


8. Applebee’s half-priced appetizers.

If you live in Royersford, or the surrounding towns (Limerick, Collegeville, Spring City). You have found yourself at Applebee’s after 9 o’clock for half priced apps with all your friends. Either if it was before or after a sporting event, it is the best deal around.

9. You always went to the Royersford Halloween Parade.



Whether you were in it or not, you were there. You wanted to bring your little siblings all dressed up and wanted to pick up a few pieces of candy.

10. Nelsons ice cream will forever be your favorite.

There is no chance that you have tried better ice cream than your homemade Nelsons, in the heart of Royersford. You have definitely stood in line to get this delicious ice cream.

11. When you heard there was going to be a Sonic coming you almost sh*t your pants.

Why? Because what’s better than an food and milkshake drive-in, and people coming to your car on rollerblades. Also, happy hour didn’t kill your pocket.

12. The fire truck that comes around every year with Santa on it.

You’ll hear him coming, don’t miss out on your candy cane!

13. French Quarter Bistro

Yummy food, great brews. What else do you need? Right down Royersford's very own main street. French Quarter Bistro's atmosphere and food is delightful.

14. Brooke Elementary’s Olympic Day.

One of the funniest days of the year, whether your helping out or a little kiddie participating.

15. Toms Bar

You're hometown bar that had been around since 62' ! Since it's right near Spring-Ford School District, you're sure to run into some old teachers and friends.

16. Rita's First Day of Spring.

Get your free water ice! The line is outrageous, but the water ice is worth it!

17. Countdown at Christ Church of the Valley (Movie Church).

Whether it was countdown for New Years Eve, a fundraising party, or a birthday party.
We all have gone to the movie church, and it's pretty awesome there.

18. 7/11.

Don’t forget about where all the kids who smoked cigs in high school used to hang before and after school.


19. The Schuylkill River.


You've either fished, boated, tree swung, or swam in the river at some point.


20. Friday Night football games.

Whether you’re a student or alumni, you’ll never forgot going to football games on Fridays in the Stadium. You also can’t forget those cheese fries.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
