This Weekend: Zombie Skaters, Stream Slosh, Things That Go Vroom

Plan some fun this weekend with events in our neck of Fairfax County.


Saturday:

Zombie Skaters Hope to Weed Out the Competition: The undead will take on the living in Dulles this weekend at NOVA Roller Derby’s Zombies versus Plant bout. The region’s roller derby team based their latest match on the video game Plants versus Zombies, a popular cell phone game that—you guessed it—pits zombies against “zombie-zapping” plants.  The fun is happening at the Michael and Son Sportsplex in Dulles.

Stream Slosh
: Break out those waders — at the Walker Nature Center in Reston, $6 (or $4 for Reston Association members) will get you some nets and buckets to take a closer look at what lies beneath the rocks and the lily pads.  The fun starts at 10:30 a.m. 

Will you find a new four-legged friend ? Fins and Feathers hosts an adoption drive for pets from the Loudoun County Animal Shelter looking for a new home. The drive only lasts two hours, from 9 to 11 a.m., so get there early.

Things that go Vroom: Check out the cool two- and four-wheeled machines at the Finish The Race Car and Motorcycle Show in Sterling. There's a moon bounce and motorcycle stunt show, among other attractions, and awards for Top 10 and Top 25. 

Sunday:

Choral auditions for the Fairfax Choral Society Adult Chorus Auditions for the 2013-2014 season take place at Fairfax Presbyterian Church, 10723 Main Street, Fairfax.
