Muppets Movie at the Charles Today!

The Charles Theater will be showing the original Muppet Movie (1979) today, December 30th, at 4PM. The movie will be fully kid-friendly, so it's ok if you bring noisy little ones (even ones that need to get up and walk around a bit).  This event will help to raise money for the Bolton Hill Nursery School.  100% of ticket sales will be given to the school, and the tickets only cost $8 per person.

New Years Eve in Baltimore

At a loss for what to do this New Year's Eve? Check out the list below for the fun happenings around town.

Washington Monument Needs Your Help

The Washington Monument in Baltimore (the original one mind you), needs your help in 2014.  In January we'll see her wrapped in scaffolding for almost an entire year.  With luck, she'll be ready for the monument lighting in December, but only with your help.  Here's the website where you can donate.  I can't wait to be able to climb up to the top again!

Here are some fun facts to leave you with.

• The monument is marble outside, but has a red-brick interior.
• It's 178 ft tall.  That's like lining up 356 large blue crabs (from point to point of the shell), which would cost you more than $1800 to buy.
• There are 228 steps to get to the top, meaning you have to do 456 steps for the round trip (no elevator inside this monument).
• The monument opened in 1829, making it 184 years old.
• It's awesome, and deserves our support!
