Grab and Go Kids Planner: A Farewell Concert for Los Dryheavers
There's also a dance recital, shopping at the Farmer's Market and a rummage sale and festival in Santa Cruz.
Where/When: W Beach St & Main St. Friday, 3-7 p.m.
Why Go: This market really is more like a "mercado" which makes it more fun for the kids to go, too. It's outdoors with lots of fresh produce and prepared foods. Leave your shopping for Friday and take a stroll with the kids through the "mercado."

Pricing: $12 for adults, $8 for children 12 and under
Where/When: , 30 Maple Ave., Saturday, 7-11 p.m.
Why Go: Los Dryheavers are a local Watsonville legend and this is their farewell concert. So come and say good-by and watch their last show. Los Dryheavers is a popular local punk band that has been playing over 12 years. Also playing are Pop Bottle Bombers, P+, Los Fracasos (also their last show) from Watsonville, and Sea Wolves from Salinas. Taqueria La Fuente will be there selling tacos and other snacks.
Pricing: $6 at the door
Where/When: Corner of Thurber Lane and Soquel Drive, Santa Cruz; Saturday 7 a.m. to 7 p.m, Sunday, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Why Go: The rummage sale got rained out last weekend, so now is the chance to make up for lost time. There will be a lot there that you and your children can "rummage" for, while knowing that your money is going to support spaying and neutering programs for feral cats.
Pricing: Whatever you spend
