    Thanks for the update! Looking into the museums this Sunday. Would love to do the pirate and princess party at Chick-Fil-A if I had off too. My daughter would be a pirate for sure. 🙂

    Thank you so much for posting these free weekend events. Your blog is always the first place I check when I’m looking for a family event for the weekend. Quite often we head to an even that we discover from your blog. Thanks!

    I heard on the radio Friday morning about the Charter Day events. So glad I did! We had a great time at Landis Valley Museum today. The weather was gorgeous too, which made for a fun family outing. Thanks for sharing this awesome event!

    Was wonder how you determine what you announce on Friday mornings and if there is a way to announce our church’s Easter egg hunt as one of the 5 fun free things to do.
