Park Slope Agenda: Pet-Picking And Pirate School

Good morning, Park Slope. Here's what's going on this weekend in the neighborhood.

Saturday

• FIDO in Prospect Park offers free goodies for dogs and their owners as well as provides information pertaining to off-leash activities and issues. Meet in the Meadow beside the Picnic House. Enter at Prospect Park West and 3rd Street. Rain or shine.

• Enjoy morning Tai Chi and Qigong in Prospect Park at 9:30 a.m. with Brooklyn Kung Fu & Tai Chi Academy.

• Spend a summer afternoon under the shade of the trees learning Nine-Man Morris, a board game that dates back to colonial times, at the Lefferts House at Prospect Park. You can even make your very own playing board to take home with you.

• Nine-time Grammy winner Eddie Palmieri, the Spanish Harlem-born granddaddy of salsa and Latin jazz piano, returns to Celebrate Brooklyn with an orchestra in tow to ignite the dance floor. Starts at 7:30 p.m.
