Happy last day of July, and hello August!

The 6th annual Townie Cup is this weekend – join the fun!

This weekend, the 6th annual Townie Cup will take over Eden Street Park in Charlestown! Caught in Charlestown is a proud sponsor of this lively, competitive inline roller hockey tournament you don’t want to miss. Over the past six years, the Townie Cup has become much more than a tournament—it’s a celebration of community, local talent, and giving back.

Thanks to the generosity of local businesses and residents, last year’s event raised $6,000, with $1,000 donated to each of the following organizations:

• Charlestown Youth Hockey
• Charlestown Girls Softball
• Charlestown Soccer
• Charlestown Football
• Charlestown Lacrosse
• Charlestown Baseball

Plus, the Wicked Delish food truck will be there both Saturday 11am-7pm and Sunday 11am-5pm! Go grab one of their fresh smashed burgers, delicious fries fried in beef tallow, and all your Wicked Delish favorites! Whether you’re at the tournament or just looking for an incredible meal, they’ve got you covered.

Run, don’t want to Tradesman in Hood Park… EVERYTHING on the menu is just $10 in August. Food. Drinks. Pizza. Cocktails. All month long. This special is dine-in only, so make your reservations now!!

It’s our way of saying thank you to the Charlestown community for all of your support—but everyone is welcome to join us!

Swim and splash at the BCYF Clougherty Pool

Yay, Summer is here! The Boston Centers for Youth and Family’s Clougherty Pool officially opened on June 20th. All Boston residents can create a free BCYF membership here! Some things to keep in mind:

• Due to capacity limits to enhance visitor safety, visitors must register for a swim time slot through our registration system. Registration will go live 24 hours before the following day’s sessions and will remain open until all spots are taken or until the session begins, whichever comes first.
• Sessions will be time-limited and visitors are asked to register for and attend one session per day. If visitors register for more than one session per day, we reserve the right to cancel their registration if there is a waitlist of individuals looking to attend.
• Visitors are asked to arrive not more than 10 minutes before the start of their session.
• Capacity guidelines limit the number of visitors per session.
• Preference will be given to Boston residents.
