What's On This Weekend: Jun 1-3

We haven't crossed the summer threshold yet -- though some lucky folks have -- but either way it sure feels like the glorious days of abundant sunshine and ice cream have arrived.

Festivals and celebrations are popping up all over the place, with opportunities aplenty to grab your favorite fair foods, relax to live music and let the little ones play to their hearts' content. There's also a green-ogred musical, Wonderland tea party, Paw Patrol meet and greet and tons more fun on the weekend horizon.

Enjoy those beautiful blue skies, friends!
