Freimann Family Thursdays

The Freimann Family Thursday series kicks off tomorrow night, June 5, 2008 in downtown Freimann Square.  From an email sent by the Downtown Improvement District:

Are you finding trips to the lake becoming harder to justify at $4.20 per gallon? Finding it more difficult to go out to eat with escalating food prices? Tired of the average movie experience for a family costing well beyond $50? Wouldn’t it be great if there was just one thing that was FUN AND FREE?

Please welcome the return of Fort Wayne’s favorite FREE family activity, Freimann Family Thursdays presented by Comcast!

With the weather in check and our 2nd Annual Balloon Release ready for opening night on Thursday, June 5th at 6:00 p.m., this is one event you won’t want to miss!
