The Last Saturday

Here we are again. The last Saturday before school starts.
 

Temperatures will be moderate, although humidity will be high and the pollen count is extra high. You can’t have everything, I suppose. Many families will be busy with back to school activities this weekend but there still may be room for a bit of fun around town. 

There are quite a few food-oriented events today: 

Kupcakes & Company in Elkridge is throwing a 15 year birthday celebration.

Celia’s Cuban Cuisine is having a Salsa Bachata Day party, which is just as much about music and dancing as is it about food. 

A Home of Our Own Howard is holding a restaurant day fundraiser at Jason’s to support their programming.

And of course there are the usual Farmers’ Markets in Clarksville and Ellicott City.

Head over to Savage Mill for the Family Plena Workshop  with the amazing folks from Cultura Plenera.

Make some music with the Columbia Pro Cantare at their Summer Sing Along.

Enjoy a program of big band swing music with the Patuxent Jazz Band.

If a movie is more your speed, you can catch The Princess Bride this evening at The Win Bin.

The usual disclaimer: this is only a sampling. Take a look at your Facebook Events section and the Visit Howard County events listing for more. The Baltimore Banner has been running a weekly “what to do this weekend” article for Howard County readers and, over on Instagram, The Columbia Mom has a pretty comprehensive weekend list. 

My listings are notoriously weak on sports, “night life”, and alcohol-centric venues. So…just because you don’t see it here doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. On any given weekend there’s just about something for everyone in our community. 

Whether you find that thought exciting or exhausting - - at least it’s available. Opportunities abound.
