AT THE FLEET 
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
if you want something done well... DIY      

Calling all makers and crafters! The fourth annual Maker Faire is coming to Balboa Park and the Fleet October 6-7, and if you can build it (or you admire those who do), you should come. This hands-on festival of fun lets tinkerers of all ages dream, build, style and make. Get your tickets today and come take part in the Greatest Show (& Tell) on Earth.

BOOGIE, WOOGIE, WOOGIE!    

It's Electric is a shocking new addition to the Fleet's permanent collection. Come discover the fascinating facets of electricity! Catch a sneak peek of the exhibition starting October 13; the full exhibition officially opens October 27. To see electricity in action, make sure to catch the San Diego Musical Theatre's presentation of Young Frankenstein at the Horton Grand Theatre on October 24.

FOUR HOURS OF FREEDOM?! 

Does the thought of shelling out your hard-earned money so a babysitter can park your kids in front of the TV for hours sound appealing? We didn't think so. Instead, Kids' Night Out at the Fleet on October 20 allows them to participate in a scavenger hunt, see an IMAX ® movie, engage in hands-on activities and enjoy a pizza dinner. Oh, and ditch the jammies: have your kiddos come dressed in their Halloween costumes!
