A Little List
Everything for Hoboken parents, in one little list · Aug 12β18
|
| Good morning, Hoboken. The humidity has finally transitioned from oppressive to merely aggressive, which means we have about ten minutes of pleasant outdoor time before the inevitable end-of-summer heat dome returns. My children are currently spending their remaining unscheduled hours auditioning for the role of person who screams the loudest in a public place, so I suppose the Hoboken Green Fair is a public service for the rest of you. |
In today’s list: | • Grand Street summer carnival party | | • Free people pleasing workshop | | • Hoboken Green Fair details |
|
| Let’s get to it. |
