   Why Go: The Sentimental Journey Orchestra is made up of people from all walks of life and all age groups. There's a 40-year span between the youngest and oldest band members, according to the orchestra's website. The one common thread among them is an abiding love of the sound made by the classic Big Band.

   Why Go: Are you looking for something great to read and don't know where to start? Let us help you fall in love with a book or two! We will provide a timer and variety of books. All you need to do is get to know them a little better and decide which ones you would like to take home. Light snacks will be provided.
5. 
   When/Where: Saturday at 11am at Picadilly
   Why Go: This could be a bust, particularly if you're not in the Navy. But it could also end up being totally awesome for that very same reason.
