Weekend Agenda: Free Concert, 5K & Pirates

It's the last weekend before school starts back up, so make the most of it! 

It looks like the weather will mostly be cooperating with us with highs in the 70s for both Saturday and Sunday. (Of course, it is Rhode Island, so who really knows?)

On Friday, Aug. 23
The Providence Brigade Band is holding a free concert at the North Kingstown Free Library. Bring your blankets, chairs and even a picnic dinner for this one! In case the weather doesn't cooperate and the concert gets moved indoors – please be nice, Mother Nature – register for this program by calling 401-294-3306. The concert starts at 6 p.m.
