Hi,
This coming Thursday is the fast of the 17th of Tammuz - Shiva Asar b'Tammuz. The fast begins in Allentown at 4:27 AM and ends at 9:17 PM.
One neither eats nor drinks, but - unlike the fasts of Tisha b'Av and Yom Kippur - one may wear leather shoes and wash normally.
(Code of Jewish Law Orach Chaim 550:2)
Have a good day,
Mordechai
