What's Booming in Richmond: A Famous Squirrel, a Famous Dog, and a Famous 10K
Ever been inspired by a dog? Meet Sgt. Stubby. This little mutt went from being a lonely stray to a WWI hero. And now they’ve made a movie about him. See his story firsthand, in theaters this weekend. And hey! If you go on opening night, 5% of ticket sales go to the Richmond SPCA. Opening night Friday, April 13.
The Flying Squirrels are BACK. This is not a drill. I repeat: this is not a drill. The team is lacing up their cleats as we speak, and preparing for another season of pitches, homers, and of course, 32-ounce craft beers. This Friday is Opening Night, starting with Fred McGriff throwing out the first pitch and concluding with those legendary fireworks. And hey, all you 60-plus baseball fans: check out the Silver Squirrels plan. Friday, April 13 at 7 p.m. at the Diamond.
This weekend, take a moment of silence during the Yom HaShoah commemoration, honoring the millions of Jews who lost their lives in the Holocaust at the Virginia Holocaust Museum’s Day of Remembrance. Sunday, April 15 at 2 p.m.
Hey Chopped Junior fans! Claire wants to cook you dinner. Sunday, April 15 at 5 p.m. at the Grille at Magnolia Green.
