What are you doing with the family this weekend?
Instead of an events listing this week, my on-vacation solution is to pose the question and hope that you will respond with creative activities that nobody else has thought of. The stakes are high, with some schools starting Monday and summer all but over.
If you run a venue and would like to advertise an event for this weekend, please post dates, times and prices below.
Sadly, I must also report that the tireless Jennifer Choi, who compiled our family-friendly events list each week, is no longer with The Sun. If you have an event to list for the weeks to come, please send it to me. Photos are great, too.
