From our Events Calendar, which is brimming with all kinds of spring and get-outdoors kinds of events in East Cobb, we’ll lead off with a major indoor activity that runs the full weekend:
It’s Wheeler Theatre’s production of “Annie the Musical,” which kicks off Friday night and includes a Saturday night performance as well as Saturday and Sunday matinees at the school’s performing arts center (375 Holt Road).
Tonight’s sold-out dinner theatre involves the Wheeler Fresh Collaborative, who are students in the STEM magnet program helping provide food to those in need.
On Saturday from 9-12 they’ll be having a plant sale at the Wheeler greenhouse, featuring a wide variety of flowers, as well as fresh herbs, ranging from $1-$10;
From 10-1 Saturday the East Cobb YMCA (1050 E. Piedmont Road) is holding a free Healthy Kids Festival that includes a fun run, family stretch class and Zumba to get them ready for an active, positive summer; vouchers for free swimming lessons also will be given out;
The St. Baldrick Foundation is holding another childhood cancer fundraiser in East Cobb on Saturday, from 1-5 at The Wing Cafe and Tap House (2145 Roswell Road, in the East Lake Shopping Center), with those taking part getting their heads shaved; there also will be a kids’ table and other activities;
The latest Sunday Funday free, family-friendly concert at East Cobb Park (3322 Roswell Road) takes place from 4-6 Sunday. You’re invited to bring a picnic meal and blanket and chairs if you wish and take in the sounds of the Loose Shoes Band, a Sunday Funday regular;
For more formal music lovers, the final performance of the St. Catherine’s Concert Series 2018-19 is from 4-6 Sunday, featuring The Summit Trio. They’re three KSU musicians performing works for the piano, violin and cello. The concert is free in the sanctuary of St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church (571 Holt Road), but donations are accepted.
