6th Annual Fllip Flop Regatta Whether you are a landlubber or a sailor, this event has something for everyone. Last year's Mount Gay Rum tent parties were heralded as some of the best Boston has to offer. This year will be even better, as we celebrate the Flip Flop Regatta’s 6th Anniversary! Come dance to incredible live music on the water under the Boston skyline. This event benefits the ALLY Foundation. http://www.flipflopregatta.com/ 3rd Annual Futures at Fenway The third annual "Futures at Fenway, presented by Filene's Basement" will see the Red Sox stars of tomorrow return to Fenway Park for another exciting day of baseball. On Saturday, August 9, the annual doubleheader will feature family-friendly ticket prices and kid-friendly activities. The day will begin with the Red Sox' short-season Single-A affiliate, Lowell Spinners, squaring off against the Hudson Valley Renegades (Tampa Bay organization) at 12:05 p.m. That game will be followed by the Triple-A Pawtucket Red Sox battling the Charlotte Knights (Chicago White Sox organization) in the second half of the doubleheader. In addition to autograph sessions, kids attending the event will be selected randomly throughout the day to participate in a number of exciting activities, such as participating in mascot races and taking part in other on-field activities. http://www.redsox.com Tanglewood Wine and Food Classic The Tanglewood Wine & Food Classic kicks off Thursday evening with a Gala Dinner and Wine Auction, and continues throughout the weekend with a Grand Tasting, seminars, tastings, Meet the Winemakers Reception, Cooking Demos with top local chefs and much more.
