Weekend Wrap-up, from Swing Dancing to the YMCA

Find out what you can do for fun this weekend

Here are five things to do this weekend:

  • Stop by the Bob Sierra YMCA in Northdale, 4029 Northdale Boulevard, to check out the water park. Or, register kids aged 4 to 7 for T-ball, basketball or flag football. The YMCA is open until 9 p.m. today. Find out more here.
  • Like swing music? Check out a dance on Saturday night at the Carrollwood Cultural Center. Find out more here.
  • Stop by Whiskey North for a drink to unwind after work.
  • Get out those canned goods on Saturday. The 19th Annual Letter Carriers Food Drive will be held - at your mailbox. The idea is to "Stamp Out Hunger" by allowing your mail carrier to collect non-perishable food donations as they deliver along their postal routes. To help out, place your donation on or near your mailbox, and your postal worker will do the rest.
  • Finally, stop by the reading group REAP, or Reading to Empower African People. They will meet at 7:30 p.m. today at Barnes & Noble in Carrollwood to talk about African American literature.
