This week, The Large Flowerheads will be playing covers of tunes from the 1960's. In addition, Take-a-Taco, Vince's Cheesesteaks, and Mon and Mel's Sweet Scoops will be on site with delicious food to enjoy. Tacos are my love language, so this event is right up my alley!

This week, the movie is Grease and will begin at 9:00. Introduce your kids to a classic in a fun location! Don't forget to throw a few lawn chairs and a blanket in the car for a comfortable place to sit. (Friday, June 11th)
4. Check Out Da Vinci Science Center's Newest Exhibit, Expedition: Dinosaur, Rise of the Mammals
(https://www.davincisciencecenter.org/expedition-dinosaur-rise-of-the-mammals/)
I'm feeling optimistic, but chances are there will be at least some rain this weekend. Luckily, Da Vinci is opening it's newest exhibit! Tickets are $14.95 or FREE for members. You will need to reserve an entry time due to Da Vinci's COVID safety precautions. My kids have been begging me to take them to this exhibit and they are so excited to finally go. I'll report back soon with our experience! (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, June 11-13)
5. Head to The Market in Downtown Allentown for Delicious Food and Ice Cream (https://www.downtownallentownmarket.com)
Here's another option to get you out of the house, even if the weather takes a turn for the worse. Visiting The Market in downtown Allentown has been on my family's list of things to do for quite a while now. There are several merchants to choose from for lunch or dinner, and you can finish the night off with some delicious ice cream from Batch Microcreamery.
