FREE Weekend Activities for March 17 & 18, 2018

Need plans for the weekend?  Here are the free events for this weekend.

Also, be sure to check out your local library for fun things to do.  There is some great programming at our local libraries – and it’s almost always free.

Don’t forget, Saturday is St. Patrick’s Day so their might be some free fun happening for that.  (We’re going to our city’s St. Patrick’s Day parade!)
