The Scarsdale Sidewalk Sale Highlights A Big Weekend In The 88th Assembly District

Dear friends and neighbors,

The last weekend of July is upon us so it sure seems like the summer is going by too fast. Take some time, though, to slow things down this weekend and enjoy everything the cities, towns and villages in the 88th Assembly District have to offer. There’s a big sidewalk sale in Scarsdale, plenty of great music and several wonderful movies to enjoy with the whole family.

Here’s a closer look at some of the events that are taking place in the 88th. Have a good weekend and remember that if you have an event you’d like me to include in the coming weeks, send the information to Paulina@Assembly.State.NY.US.
