Check the www.skatedc.org website for the next Skate DC weekend. It used to be on Memorial Day weekend each year, but they had it on my birthday weekend this year (May 5, 6 & 7). This was my first year at this event and I absolutely loved it.
They haven't set a date for it yet, and they may not finalize a date until a month or so ahead of time. Having a sister there sure is convenient! She skates, I hope?! Drag her out, too!
