Get Out: Cupcakes, Strings, Horns and the Great Outdoors
It's the weekend - almost. You've got time to play. What to do? We got ideas in our new feature, Get Out.
It's been a loooong work week and now the weekend is upon you.
You've been too busy to scout for the best options or check out what's playing, doing and happening this weekend. Patch's new Get Out feature is the solution. Each week, we collect the very best in weekend options. But we can't do it alone.
We know we can count on you to help us highlight the best ways to spend downtime with family and friends. Whether trying a new bar or crowd-surfing at a concert, your Get Out options will be right here at your fingertips.
So share your suggestions in the comments with others in Patchland and come on back each Thursday for the best of Get Out.
