This magician and comedian is guaranteed to be entertaining. Why? Because I said so! No, wait. Mike Rose has been performing for 20 years and brings his crazy expertise to every show. He will amaze you with technically demanding sleight of hand, although you may be laughing too hard to realize it until after the show (Mike has been known to realize many things after his shows, like the fact that he misplaced his car keys!). His show is family friendly—you can even bring grandma! Location: King Farm Park |  |
| Join Carol Finch’s “Wheels on the Bus” music show and involve the kids in singing and dancing. Her music gives a new "shake" to the fun songs we all know and love! Location: Potomac Woods |
Mac has been calling square dances since 1974 and has even called at the White House. Each year groups from all over the world have square danced, line danced and circle danced to Mac’s calling. No experience necessary: Just bring a smile, have the desire to have a good time, and leave the rest to Mac. Location: Twinbrook Community Recreation Center |  |

Of course, they play all of the most-requested mariachi pieces, too. “La Bamba” anyone?! Location: Monument Park - 550 Maryland Avenue |
