Turfway Park in Florence continues to celebrate 50 years of racing and community involvement.  Tonight (Friday) the Budweiser Clydesdales will be on hand to wow the crowds – as well as $1 dogs!  And tomorrow the Kentucky Cup runs.  Hopefully the rain rain will go away and come back some other day!   Even if you’re not into gambling, the horses are beautiful and the atmosphere is so much fun!  Details Here

I’ve heard of towns going to the dogs, but Loveland goes to the FROGS this Saturday!  The Second Annual Frog Festival hits the streets of historic Loveland and you won’t want to miss it.  At least if it rains, you won’t see the frogs complaining!  More info here

And who doesn’t love a cute, cuddly Guinea Pig? Celebrate that love on Sunday at the This Little Piggy and Me Pig-Nic at Winton Woods from 10am to 2pm.   Face painting, silent auction, pet psychic, pet costume contest, bake sale and more.  Go here for more pig-tails (I crack myself up!)

Phyllis: Coney Island is hosting their annual Fall-o-ween Festival this weekend (and next) Saturday and Sunday from 1-8pm daily.  Adult admission is $10 (only $7 if you purchase online by Friday) and child admission is $7.  Additionally season passholders can save $2 on adult admission by showing their 2009 pass.

This really is a fun halloween event and what kid (or parent) doesn’t like Coney Island?  The festivities include theatrical entertainment, a trick or treat trail, pumkin painting, halloween crafts, farm animals(we saw alpacas last year) and if you are still there at 8pm a laser light show.
