Events in CNY Celebrate April’s Passing

A beautiful April weekend calls for Sunday showers, but there is a whole crop of events in CNY blossoming in and around Syracuse.

It’s been fun, April. Your showers certainly have brought us May flowers early. Now, we have a beautiful upcoming weekend with several events around CNY.

To celebrate your leaving, we will jump, run or walk to the occasions. We will laugh and we might cry. We will be thoughtful and giving. We will break stretch bread and hopefully not break while stretching ourselves. We will play music and enjoy it. We will celebrate local.

Have a beautiful weekend!
