We’re gearing up for the unofficial kick off to Summer this weekend. It’s a long 3-day weekend for a lot of people, and we hope you enjoy and stay safe. For some, they’ll be traveling. But, with high gas prices, a lot of people will still be in town. But that’s okay, because we have a lot of things going on in and around the CSRA this weekend. We’ve put together a list below for you, and while we did our best to list everything, there’s probably a few we missed! Email us with any additional events!
