Milkshake Valentine Show for Autism Speaks

The Valentine’s Day Spectacular concert will be at Ram’s Head Live in Downtown Baltimore, with doors opening at 1 pm, and the concert beginning at 2 pm.

Other fun things include face painting, balloon art, chocolate kisses, flowers, cartoons and videos.

A portion of the proceeds goes to Autism Speaks, which is an organization that supports the understanding, support, and advocacy so needed for families of children with autism.

What a great way to raise money and awareness while having fun with the whole family!

Baltimore Party in the Park 2010

Baltimore Party in the Park 2010 is this Sunday, October 2 from 10:30 am – 5 pm at the Padonia Park Club on Jenifer Road in Cockeysville.

The Baltimore Party in the Park is an event in support of the Nikki Perlow foundation, which was formed to honor Nikki’s memory and “provide financial, logistical and emotional support to young adults like Nikki – who struggle with the disease of addiction”. Nikki passed away from an accidental overdose in 2007.

Last year was the first Baltimore Party in the Park, and was a great success. This year, like last, the hugely popular kids’ group Milkshake will perform from 12-1:30 pm, along with southern rock group The Bridge from 2:30-4:30 pm for adults.

The “Kidz Stage” has shows all day long, and there is also a large “Kidz Zone” with an obstacle course, coloring books & jewelry making, as well as face painting, pumpkin decorating, petting zoo, and the Oriole Bird!

Yummy food will be available as well, as it will be catered by the popular Clementine Restaurant on Harford Road.

Tickets for the Party in the Park are $10 for adults and $5 for children, and can be bought in advance or at the event on Saturday.

Padonia Park is located at 12006 Jenifer Road, Cockeysville, MD 21030. The event will be at the West picnic area — but I think the cars, music, people, and smells of food will draw you there!

Some come on up just west of Timonium off West Padonia Road (past the Mays Chapel Graul’s) and enjoy a great day while supporting a worthy cause.
