Hello, Washington County! π
I heard someone say they have the Spring zoomies, and I think I have a case of that too. Just like my cat at midnight running around the house doing all of the things no one asked or wanted him to do. In the past two week, I’ve spread 25 bags of mulch, reseeded the entire lawn, and planted 18 new plants. My excuse is that it’s better to get this all done now before the temps are killer this summer. But, to be real, I’ll just keep finding more stuff to do until next winter.
Always check the event source before heading out, as details can change last minute. I collect events and create this list by hand, so events aren’t automatically updated if there’s a change.
β means it’s a free event to attend. If you’re enjoying a free event, show some love by supporting the venue by purchasing food, drinks, or goods!
