September is here, !
Gateway to Fall, but still with a lot of Summer-y weather, September holds quite a few fun and creative surprises in the Events arena. The kids head back to school (yay!) so
there is a little more time during the day for you to get out and enjoy some free time.
Don't miss some of the biggest events all year because you think the Summer is over - there are festivals and fairs to enjoy, and great causes to support.
We make sure you
don't miss any of the great Events this month, by bringing you a preview of the best of September 2018!
See You Around Town, - Ryan
