Plan Your Weekend Wednesday

I have been working for DAYS on finding fun stuff to do this weekend. There is so much to offer here in Cobb so to make it easy for you, each day through Friday, I'll be sharing a few of our "Top 10 Picks for Things to Do" this weekend. These first three you need to know about now because you need to start working on it yesterday :) ! (If you have little kids you might need a babysitter or you'll need to buy tickets/reserve spots)

  1. “Cheap Date” Night: Friday (4/29) night enjoy a FREE concert with your sweetie, Glover Park Concert Series featuring “Glow Band” @ 8pm; bring a picnic dinner (beer or wine OK) or grab a pizza at Marietta Pizza Company located directly on the square at 3 Whitlock Ave. Be sure to claim your spot on the lawn before it gets too crowded! You can begin staking your claim with your chairs or blankets on the square as early as 4 pm. If your kids have the privledge of a later bedtime, you could make this a family affair! http://www.mariettaga.gov/departments/parks_rec/calendarview.aspx?id=4873
  2. Family Night at “Play: An Activity Center for Kids” Friday (4/29) 6-8pm, fun and games for the whole family: wear the kids out with playtime in the gym, make a fool of yourself in the “Chill Out Lounge” with karaoke, play ping pong, board games and more. Adults are free, $5 per child & $5 per person pizza dinner; call PLAY to reserve your spots: 770-650-0122. This place may not technically be in Cobb but my kids and I love this place and it's just a stone's throw in Roswell at 10930 Crabapple Rd., 30075; http://www.playanactivitycenter.com/
  3. Royal Tea at the East Cobb Library: You might remember a couple weeks ago there was a ton of news about possible libraries closing?? They may be safe for now but funding is always decreasing for the library system so they have gotten creative to help raise funds. If you have a princess or 2 at home, here's how you can support your library (The next best way is to use them!) This would also be a GREAT "early" Mother's Day gift for Grandma if she lives in town...buy the tickets for her and the kids and send them packing, you get the morning off - BONUS! Calling all princesses ages 3-8 to a Royal Tea to help raise money for the Cobb Library Foundation; Tickets are $35 for 2 and $10 each additional person. Purchase tickets and learn more about this very special storytime and brunch! http://www.cobbcat.org/FoundationEvents.html
Now, go get planning!
