Concrete Playground

You've put in the hard yards: gone home early Friday night, or spent a night in, and now you wake bright and early on a Saturday morning. You're fresh and ready to make the most of your city. You're ready to do good. So, what next?

Well, my suggestion would be that you head along to CarriageWorks. There'll be loads of people doing the same, attending workshops on things like gardening, bike safety tips and public art. This Saturday, you have three to choose from. 'Earthly Delights', which promises to help you train tricky soil, 'Getting Weedy', pointing out common weeds that can be used as food or medicine, and 'Reverse Robots', partnering with Reverse Garbage to enable you to create the ultimate robot mask.

And if you do happen to weaken on your plan thanks to the temptations of Friday night, the good news is that this is a monthly do. Which means there's only so many excuses you can make before going along and digging in.
