Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Go to Tacony Third Thursdays on the third Thursday of the month, 6 to 9 pm, at Costello Boxing Gym on Torresdale Avenue..

You can just show up.

What to expect

Tacony Third Thursdays runs from 6 to 9 pm and is aimed at the whole family. The site lists a food truck, produce and flowers, live music, family activities, and tables from local organizations and elected officials. The site does not say whether it costs anything or whether you need to sign up.

Tips for your first visit

  • You can come for part of the evening, since the event runs from 6 to 9 pm.
