The one thing your mom wants the most this weekend? To spend some screen-free quality time with you! Don't stress making fancy reservations or elaborate plans when we've got a weekend full of free family fun for all ages and interests, happening throughout your favorite hometown!
This week's Unplugged Friday movie presented by Methodist Mansfield Medical Center is Freaky Friday and begins about 8 p.m. Bring mom early for trivia, crafts, and photo ops! Food trucks include Nearly Famous Burgers & Wings, Chuck & Tiff's Gelu Italian Ice and the Lemonade Lounge.
On Saturday, enjoy a refreshing yoga class with mom thanks to Sunshine Yoga Shack, then go check out the Monarch Festival presented by Methodist Mansfield Medical Ctr to explore interactive butterfly exhibits, crafts, games and more at Oliver Nature Park or see the classic rides at the Historic Mansfield Car Show. Or, just stick around Geyer Commons for shopping, splash pad, lawn games, and our Satur-yay kids' craft making paper bouquets, plus visit from That's What's Up BBQ starting at 1:30 p.m.
For the big day, treat mom to an afternoon of shopping at not only our amazing cottage market, but also a pop-up street full of shops with gifts and treats just for her. There's no bigger way to show you care than shopping small! And don't forget the lunch... on Sunday we're thrilled to bring Jovanna's Cafe, Cousins Maine Lobster, Nearly Famous Burgers & Wings and the Lemonade Lounge to make sure mom gets a little bit of everything she loves!
