It's no secret that Memorial Day weekend means the unofficial kick-off to summer, and while you won't find invites to neighborhood backyard barbecues here, we do have a list of some events going on this weekend that are open to the public. And don't forget to check out one of the many parades and ceremonies going on in the area this weekend as well. Stay tuned for a list of those on Friday.
