Fun Weekend Events

Wednesday July 15, 2009
It's Wednesday, which means I'm looking forward to the weekend! I'm sure you are too. Here are some fun things going on this weekend, you can comment if you want to add something else to the list.
  • Don't forget about movies in the park on Wednesday. This week is "Curious George."
  • Thursday brings "Santorini, Greece" at Forty Two in the Clinton Center. For $27.95 you can get a 3 course meal and cultural entertainment frmo Greece. Call 501-537-0042 for reservations. The Clinton center is also having a fun space event in conjunction with super summer Saturdays and their new summer space camp. The demonstrations are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday.
  • Friday is a fun bluegrass concert at the Old State House Museum. Posey Hill will be playing and they are described as, "a blend of bluegrass, old-time country, folk and contemporary acoustic music." The concert starts at 5:30 p.m. If bluegrass isn't your style, the Peabody Rivertop has a hip hop concert with DJ Tre’ Day. There's a $5 cover.
  • The FOCAL booksale is being held at the main library (100 Rock street) Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They have around 200,000 books for sale. Go early to get the best ones.
  • This weekend is the Eureka Springs Fat Tire Festival and Heber Springs' Wakefest too.

Here’s the kind of fun we had a few years ago. As you can tell, a bicycler of ANY level can have fun at the Eureka Springs (Arkansas) Fat Tire Festival.
