May the Fourth Be With You

Collegedale Parks and Recreation is bringing back their “May the Fourth be With You” event on Saturday, May 4. The event is for all ages and families to join other fans of the movie Star Wars in an evening of fun activities. Participants will learn agility and basic combat, test their skills, enjoy crafts, take photos and purchase themed beverages. “Those who attend this event can receive instruction from Greg Roy’s Martial Arts, meet and greet with characters, make crafts with the Collegedale Public Library and purchase themed drinks from Appaloosa Moon,” said Christina Clark, Collegedale Parks and Recreation supervisor. This event is free and no registration is required to attend. Participants will need to report to the Collegedale Commons at 4750 Swinyar Dr. on May 4 from 4-7 p.m. “We are happy to announce that we have opened this event to all ages and families,” said Ms. Clark. “Once again, we will be looking to hand out the title of Best Costume and hope that everyone joins in dressing in their best Star Wars outfit.” For additional information, contact Collegedale Parks and Recreation at 423-468-1971 or email [email protected].
