Westminster This Weekend: Holy Cow, Options Abound!
Your local businesses and organizations are making it impossible to stay home this weekend!
No excuses Westminster! You belong out and about this weekend, enjoying yourself and supporting locally owned businesses and local theater groups. We have it all, right here in our own little town.
It's officially Westminster Restaurant Week!
Twelve of downtown's best restaurants will provide fixed price meal specials. Unique breakfast treats are available at Heinz Bakery, delicious lunch breaks abound at Giulianova's, J Cafe and Birdie's Cafe, and incredible, multiple course dinners are offered at Maggie's, Johansson Dining House and Papa Joe's.
Families with children are welcome at these restaurants, but the City of Westminster Parks & Recreation is also offering a “Parent’s Night Out” on Saturday April 21, an event for kids up to age 12. Call (410) 848-9161 for details.
Visit www.westgov.com/restaurantweek, where you'll find specific links to each restaurant's specials. You can also visit the Downtown Facebook page at www.facebook.com/downtownwestminster.

Little Community Theater presents the comedy Blame It on the Pony Express! at St. Paul’s UCC as a dinner show on Friday and Saturday. September Song presents two performances of Broadway in Recital: A Musical Revue at the Carroll Arts Center on Saturday.
