This weekend in Racine, WI

An alternative to the KRBC club ride, this weekly social spin gathers at Anna's, then rolls to Honey Bee Cafe in Zion for conversation over breakfast and coffee. The return follows a different route, bringing the outing to roughly 30 miles, with an average pace near 14 mph. Some riders like to arrive early to grab a bite and chat, and there is occasionally a slower group that sets off a little before the main roll. It is a comfortable choice for anyone who prefers a gentler tempo than a typical Class C KRBC ride and for those who keep riding outdoors throughout the year.

Returning for its ninth year, the Elmwood Park Car and Bike Show offers a full day of cool rides, family friendly fun, and plenty to experience. Enjoy music from a live DJ throughout the event, a food truck with tasty options, and raffles with prizes. Participants can pre-register for $10 or sign up the day of the show for $15, while spectators are admitted at no cost. Custom trophies will be awarded, and the first 50 registered cars receive goodie bags. The event runs rain or shine.

A Saturday marketplace that continues a tradition, with new crops arriving each week. Early arrival offers the widest selection. A current list of vendors is shared on Facebook.

Savor a day of food and music at a food truck festival featuring a wide range of vendors set up just outside the Market.

Vendors are welcome to participate at no cost. For details, call 262-456-1003 or email Midwestmarket2210@gmail.com.

Artsy Afternoons offers a monthly, hands-on art experience that nurtures creativity and invites playful exploration. Participants try out fresh techniques, work with a range of materials, and make one-of-a-kind pieces inspired by artwork, artists, and themes from the museum. Every meeting centers on a new project, so returning creators always have something different to tackle. All supplies are included, and beginners are welcome. Bring curiosity and a creative spirit.

A free puppy play hour at Central Bark Oak Creek offers a friendly setting for young dogs to burn energy, practice social skills, and meet other pups. Geared toward puppies 8 to 16 weeks old, it encourages gentle, positive interaction and confidence building. Space is limited, and spots can be reserved in advance.

An evening pop-up market transforms the plaza outside the Kenosha Creative Space with handmade goods from local vendors, arts and crafts stations for all ages, food trucks, music, and karaoke. The atmosphere is family friendly and admission is free.

Old School Fuel returns to Chartroom Food & Spirits for the season’s final waterfront show, an outdoor patio performance packed with high energy, classic hard rock, and a lively crowd. The set features favorites by AC/DC, Ozzy Osbourne, Mötley Crüe, and more, with songs like Back in Black, Crazy Train, Dr. Feelgood, Paranoid, Whole Lotta Love, Born to Be Wild, Radar Love, and All Right Now. Expect rock hits from start to finish, cold drinks and great food, and a waterfront atmosphere. There is no cover, and boat access is available nearby.

Would You Kindly? brings an alternative rock set to Kenosha Tap "K Tap". This award-winning, female-fronted band from Kenosha performs original songs and features rock violin. Arriving early can help with bar seating, and food and drinks will be available. There is no cover charge.

Celebrate pets and the people who love them at the 6th annual West Allis Pawtoberfest inside the West Allis Farmers Market facilities. The event includes a wide range of pet supply and service vendors, nonprofit pet related exhibitors, and a stage hosting demonstrations and contests, along with a basket raffle, food trucks, and a beer garden. Organized as a fundraiser by the After Hours Rotary Club of West Allis, it primarily benefits local animal rescues, and a portion of proceeds also supports other animal related nonprofit organizations.

Readers gather for a monthly discussion that champions the right to read, with this session centered on "I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter" by Erika L. Sanchez. The September meeting was rescheduled because of a conflict. The club continues selecting new titles throughout the year and takes a break in December for the holidays.

Bleachers will be at Landmark Credit Union Live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
