Each week we are here for families in Buncombe County with fun, family friendly things to do.  Be sure to check the calendar often as I add to it as new things come to my attention. It can be time consuming to find things to do as a family.  Hopefully, Asheville Macaroni Kid has helped! If you have an event that you would like to include on our calendar click here. I will get back with you. And if you are traveling and want to see if there is a Macaroni Kid in that area click on our National Macaroni Kid page and use the drop down box on the left side of the page where it says "Find Your Town".

See those businesses listed on the side of the newsletter?  Not only do these business offer fun, great classes and products they are also the businesses that help bring Macaroni Kid to you each week at no charge.  Each local ad is included by me and therefore I can assure you they are safe to click through. 

Just a reminder, don't miss out on the Kids Eat Free (or Cheap) and Mom Connections. I do my best to get the information correct but I recommend you call before going, just to be sure that the Kids Eat Free is still on. If you have found the link on another site please check to see that it is a current list. 

Have a great week.
Sandy
