What To Do This Weekend

It's here! May-Two-Four!! You wanna know what to do? Do I really have to tell you??

GO CAMPING!!

Of course, if you haven't already made arrangements, well then, good luck with that...

Oh, you can't head out of town.... that stinks. But, I have some weekend fun ideas to cheer you up :-)

• Get the whole family together to plant a little veggie garden - buy the seeds, plant 'em, label 'em and watch 'em grow over the summer.
• Head over to the Fill-A-Truck event at the Canadian Diabetes HQ on Topsail Rd. Bring the gently used clothing/items from your spring cleaning to donate to the Truck, and enjoy some refreshments and family activities as well (details in calendar)
• Head to Berg's for an ice cream. Boot it over to Manuals River for a walk while you enjoy your cone.
• Picnic in Bowring Park - classic!
• Invite the neighbourhood kids over for a water gun fight in your backyard. Don't let on that you have a gun too until about ten minutes in, then sneak up on an unexpecting soul, preferably one of your own imps ;-)
• Browse Saturday's paper for garage sales... everyone is out of town = less competition for any goodies/steals you find!
• Have a BBQ (check out these BBQ food safety tips from HSW).
• Try on all your summer clothes (or get the kids to try on theirs), then shop to fill in any gaps ;-)
• Don't forget about the Fluvarium's Kids Club, or the family activities at the Botanical Gardens, see calendar for details. 

Have a great long weekend!!

For details on events in & around town, check my events calendar regularly - it is on the bottom of EVERY page :-) The Tely Go Guide published in Arts & Life section every Thursday is also a good source. 

If you have something to add to the Calendar, please let me know! Complete details can be found here and I welcome being added to any "Events Distribution list" your facility might have :-)
