Happy Thursday, everyone! It is officially March 🏀Madness, when every bar has the games on, everyone has a bracket, and even the people who don’t watch basketball somehow get pulled into it. It’s one of the best excuses of the year to head out, grab a drink, and hang out a little longer than you planned.
So if you’re looking for something to do between games, we’ve got plenty happening around our area this weekend.
If you’re looking for a fun night out that also supports a great cause, check out this food & wine pairing benefiting Mary’s Place by the Sea. The event will take place at Val’s Tavern on March 26.
This 21+ event has limited seating, so be sure to grab your tickets before it sells out! 🍷
