2. Food Truck Thursdays

A sure sign of spring - food trucks are back! Head to the Hilltop Athletic Association in Kingston to sample all your favorite food trucks - or find a new favorite. There will be different live music every week, new trucks, and fun for the whole family. Thursday, 4:30-8:00pm

3. Plymouth Town Forest Story Walk Kick Off

Head to Plymouth Town Forest behind PCIS for the kickoff of the new StoryWalk! Follow along with The Earth Book by Todd Parr while learning about the property and wildlife you can find there! This is a partnership between Plymouth Public Schools, Plymouth Open Space Committee, Sustainable Plymouth and Town of Plymouth.

The StoryWalk will be up from Saturday, May 4  until Sunday, June 2. It will be available to the public on weekdays after 4pm and anytime on weekends! Please advise that it will not be available to access during school hours. Saturday, 10:00-11:00am

5. Touch a Truck AND Spring Scamper at the Plymouth YMCA 

Double your Sunday Fun Day with two great events for a wonderful cause! Join the YMCA rain or shine! All proceeds from both events benefit the Old Colony Y Camp Clark’s Annual Campaign. Kids of all ages will enjoy climbing, exploring, and learning about many large and unique vehicles in a fun and safe environment. Bounce house, food for purchase, and many other
activities are available! Lace up your running shoes for Redbrook's Spring Scamper Fun Run (9:00 AM) and 5k (9:30 AM)! Both runs/walks will begin and end at The Kennard Barn, where awards will be given and then festivities will continue afterward on the Redbrook Green and at the Old Colony YMCA. Sunday, all day
