Wallingford Church Hosts Strawberry Palooza Saturday

First United Methodist Church Wallingford (FUMC) is hosting a sweet event this Saturday. FUMC’s Strawberry Palooza will be held on June 21, 2014 from 4-8pm at the church, 941 Old Rock Hill Road, Wallingford.

Come and enjoy a night full of good food, good fun, great music and of course strawberries! Kids will love the bounce house and there will be games and prizes too!

As if you needed a reason to eat more strawberries, Web MD lists a few reasons why eating strawberries not only tastes delicious, but is good for you too! Here are a few:

  • protects your heart
  • Increases HDL (good) cholesterol
  • Lowers your blood pressure
  • Guards against cancer
  • High levels of antioxidants 
  • Sodium-free, fat-free, cholesterol-free, low-calorie food

In addition to the heart-shaped, heart-healthy strawberries that will be served, hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, lemonade and ice tea will also be available. For more information about Strawberry Palooza, contact Linsey Walters 203-804-2398.
