5 THINGS: Pasta Dinners, Skating and Dancing

Here are the (more than) Five Things for Saturday, February 23, 2013:

Synchronized skating open! It’s fun times at the Boss Ice Arena, as there is synchronized skating from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The cost is $10 for adults, and $5 for seniors and children ages 3 to 12.

mmm, Pasta for a good cause! The Cane Development Center is having a fundraising pasta dinner from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tickets are $10, and the event is at the Elks Lodge.

Dosey-do and what not! An English Country Dance is being held at 7:30 p.m. Admission is $10, and the event is at the South Kingstown Land Trust Barn.

Register for South Kingstown Little League or Softball! Yes, it’s time for the nation’s pastime – opening day is just around the corner. For baseball registration info, click here. For softball, click here.

Has the time or date or details of one of your events changed? If you posted the event yourself on our site, then remember – You can always change the details if you’re logged into your Patch account. Failing that, leave a comment on the item in question! The issue is that lately, people have been e-mailing me, and depending on the time of the day, it can take me anywhere from 30 minutes or 30 hours to get to the item, unfortunately. As a result, I encourage you all to be as proactive as possible!

Oh no! Maybe there seriously aren’t that many events today, given that it’s Red Army Day. As a result, our events calendar for today is a bit barren. If you’re having an event, please let us know in the comments. Also, make sure it isn’t left out in the future – Submit it via this link (as long as you’re logged into your Patch account).

Sign up for our daily newsletter! Hey, I realize we have a lot of neat features and knick-knacks on the site, so it can be confusing to keep up with it all. Want just one simple, easy to read daily digest? Sign up for our e-mail newsletter here then. It comes out between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. roughly, every single day of the week. Amazing, I know.

You can even call it a “champagne” supernova, ha! On this day in 1987, Supernova 1987a was seen in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

Jill “The Toolwoman” Taylor! Happy 62nd birthday to Patricia Richardson, best known for her role as Jill Taylor on Home Improvement.
