Jump Into A Mad Good Time With The Weekender
The Weekender gets a little crazy with National Mad Hatter Day to bring you the best in weekend fun. There is so much going on it is getting hard to narrow down the list of activities each weekend for you. Be sure to email us here if you want your event included in The Weekender. Luckily the Vikings play Sunday morning in London so you can thank Kevin O'Connell for the 4-0 start on National Coaches Day on Sunday, then get out for some late morning and afternoon fun in the nice fall weather. Friday is World Smile Day so remember to share your smile as you are out so the world will smile with you.
