Things To Do In Dayton (9/30 – 10/4)

September 29, 2009 By Dayton Most Metro 2 Comments

Dayton Featured EventsIt is looking like another very busy week in the Dayton Region! Here are some featured events from the DMM Event Calendar…

Starting with Wednesday 9/30 we have The Original Students of Stand-Up – an improv comedy night at the Dayton Dirt Collective (they do more than assault ear-drums with loud-ass music there? Who woulda thunk it?) Of course, if you need a local music fix that night then check out The Buddha Den NTRO/XPO at Oregon Express – a free weekly event featuring two acts every Wednesday night.  And if you want to get involved with an emerging cycle advocacy group then hook up with the same folks that bring us Courteous Mass at Brixx for the first Grassroots Cycling Meet-up.

Then on Thursday 10/1 get ready for city politics with the Updayton Candidates Forum at c{space – will Gary Leitzell and Rhine McLin get into a wrestling match? Will Esrati go full ninja? (which would actually be cool) Come bring your questions to what may be the biggest candidate’s forum of this Dayton election season and get to know who will be leading our city into the next four years – and tell them that we want longer recess and NO MORE HOMEWORK!!! Oh, and if you want your ear-drums assaulted then just head on over to the Dayton Dirt Collective for some Thursday Noise Aktion (whew, we thought they were going comedy club on us!)

Friday 10/2 is going to be another crazy night in Dayton… yes kids, it is First Friday! First up for you emerging artist fans (emerging artists, not emerging fans) we have the Creative Soul of Dayton Reception at the Armory Building in the OD (that cool red brick building on Patterson just south of the tracks) where regional artists will be presenting their art and competing for prizes. If urban bike riding is more your thing then get your wheels out and join the Courteous Mass as we (yes I’ll be there) ride from downtown to Eastwood MetroPark where GearFest will be getting started (more on that below). And just after that there is more urban adventure happening with Dayton’s first Urban Excursion – a local take on the Amazing Race. And finally if you’re down in Centerville and itching for some pre-Masquerage action then check out Pour Haus as they present Masquerage on the Fringe – a crazy time indeed!

On Saturday 10/3 (if you can recover from Friday) get your butt up and your walking shoes out for a cause – the JDRF 5K Walk to Cure Diabetes at Island MetroPark. And speaking of MetroParks – if you are an outdoor adventurer or might like to see what it is all about then you MUST go to the annual GearFest at Eastwood MetroPark (remember these words: Dayton, Ohio – The Outdoor Recreation Capital of the Midwest!)  Oh, and yes it is now October so time for some seasonal fun – first there is that Harvest Party @ Garden Station – if you haven’t seen this amazing transformation of a formerly vacant & overgrown city lot then this is a good time to check it out.  And for some of your first Halloween family fun of the season head out to Young’s Dairy in Yellow Springs for Pumpkin Pick’n & Corn Mazes during the day and Young’s Dairy Haunted Wagon Rides at night. Finally, if local music is your thing then you MUST head to the Oregon District for the annual Dayton Music Fest where you can see 32 bands at 8 clubs for only $10!!!

Finally to close out the week on Sunday 10/4, we suggest you just chill after the crazy week you just had in Dayton by enjoying some peaceful films at the ScreenPeace Film Festival with screenings at The Neon in Downtown Dayton and The Little Art Theatre in Yellow Springs.

These are just some featured events from the DMM Calendar – go over there for even more things happening this week and beyond. And if you have an event you’d like to promote or just want to help us become the number one event calendar in the Dayton Region (we’d like to believe we already are) then be sure to submit your events. Especially if you know of things happening on Mondays or Tuesdays for the benefit of our Facebook Fan Michael H. because he works weekends and deserves to have fun too!

Cheers!
