This weekend is, in a word, busy. 

It’s got a rock opera, roller derby, Shelby Forest Spring Fest, a rescheduled vegan block party and a Lego convention. Plus a Friends of the Library book sale and a yard sale. 


A free Grind City show, a singalong brunch and a Halloween party in April


Newsletter editor Bianca Phillips joins us today to talk about all these events and more.
