Another weekend upon us already! Summer is winding down, the days are noticeably shorter, kids are back in school. What’s going on this weekend?

Friday

• It’s the final night of Munch and Movies, taking place at Compass Park in Northwest Crossing. Tonight’s movie is "Kung Fu Panda", and it’s free to come watch. M&M starts at 6 with live music and food vendors, and the movie starts at dusk.

• The Little Woody, the barrel-aged beer festival I’ve been blogging about, takes place from noon until 10pm downtown at the Deschutes Historical Museum lawn.
