Friday Fun: How to Enjoy Your Three Day Weekend

Another week has passed, and another weekend is rapidly approaching. However, this weekend is a little more interesting than your typical weekend because Monday is Martin Luther King Jr. Day. As a result, if you’re one of those lucky souls that works a typical 9 to 5 shift Monday through Friday, you may have just landed yourself a three-day weekend. The only problem now is that you need to actually figure out how you’re going to spend your extra day off.

Well, if you’re looking for something to do this weekend and you’re having trouble coming up with any ideas, here are a couple of ways that you can spend your extra free time. First, if you’re a car lover living in or visiting the New England Area, you may want to check out the New England International Car Show. The New England International Car Show is the largest automobile exhibition in the Northeastern United States, and it features exotic, green, specialty, and soon-to-be-released vehicles from over 30 different manufacturers. In fact, the show not only features some of the newest and most impressive vehicles commercially available but also features guest appearances by a number of local stars, including Aaron Hernandez, Alfonzo Dennard, JoJo White, and several others. Some of the manufacturers at the New England International Car Show will even let you test drive their vehicles for free, so the show can be a lot of fun for a list of reasons.

Secondly, if cars really aren’t your forte, you may want to check out some of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day events that are taking place in your local area. In most cases, your local newspaper or your favorite local news website will have a list of art exhibitions, community breakfasts, lectures, parades, and a number of other similar free or inexpensive events honoring Martin Luther King Jr. throughout the weekend.
