You can find me at the The Great Forest Park Balloon Race , which is this weekend on Art Hill in Forest Park. The event starts off with a annual "Gaslight Balloon Glow" where the balloons fill the night sky with the fire and glow. On Saturday spend the whole day at the event meeting pilots and looking at balloons close up. At 4pm the send off begins and the balloons take flight over the City of St. Louis. Don't miss out on checking out this great tradition!
The Budweiser Taste of St. Louis is also this weekend. Voted St. Louis' Best Food Event by St. Louis Magazine's A-List Readers' Choice Poll, the Taste of St. Louis will take place at the Chesterfield Amphitheater in Central Park and Chesterfield Village. Along with great food there is a music stage to host national music and runway shows.
Hopefully you will join me at the 8th annual St. Louis Garlic Fest at the Carondelet Park Boathouse in the beautiful Holly Hills neighborhood of St. Louis! We went last year and found that garlic ice cream is surprisingly refreshing and pleasant.
