The Week Ahead: Crafts, A Play, And Lots of Golf
A look at some events in Melrose this upcoming week.
If you play golf, consider yourself in luck.
You have two golf tournaments to chose from this week - including the Hallmark Health Second Annual Golf for Women's Health Event, and the Horace Mann 8th Annual Golf Tournament - and both seem like they are going to be lots of fun. If you're not much of a golfer, you could see a high school play, go to an open house, or go to an arts and crafts exhibit.
Always check our calendar for the full slate of events and you can even add your own events to the calendar with a Melrose Patch account or by signing into Melrose Patch with your Facebook account.
