Westwood Shopping Center sidewalk sale and Family Fun this Saturday, July 11 in Bethesda
Westwood Shopping Center is hosting a Sidewalk Sale this Saturday, July 11 from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Enjoy free ice cream and music, and several food trucks will be on hand.
Of course, there will also be a sale going on. Alas, RadioShack has closed. But other local favorites like Anglo Dutch Pools and Toys and Westwood Pet Center are waiting to see you on Saturday.
I saw the last one and it was quite pitiful. A few food trucks and tables set up where the car dealers currently park their spare cars (by Rite Aid) and no one around.
If they want to draw peopel, they should set up a stage, put out some chairs, and have live music to go with it. Heck, there's enough space in that parking lot -- bring in some carnival rides, too. Do it on a Friday evening. They do something like this (well, the music part) as Rockville Town Center every Friday and hundreds turn out.

Third world fun!
ReplyDeleteNo loud music and stage on Friday nights, please. We like it quiet. thank you very much.
ReplyDelete10:06: I agree that carnival rides would be a good idea. They do that at the lot in Wheaton Plaza occasionally still today.
ReplyDeleteA carnival? We need the parking!
