Get Out: Five Ideas For Your Weekend

This weekend, we remember.

This weekend offers multiple opportunities for reflection. Listen to patriotic music, hear testimony from a local firefighter who was a 9/11 first responder, and light a candle for those we remember.

The Redlands Footlighters also have a new comedy out and the Loma Linda Senior Center is hosting a dance.

Our goal is to make the Get Out planner as reliable as possible, but keep in mind, some events change at the last minute. We advise calling ahead just in case.

Needless to say, madness ensues. "You Can't Take it With You" won the 1937 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
