The ‘hunt’ is on & ceilidh

COVINGTON, Ky. – First of all, Covington Parks & Rec’s Annual Easter Egg Hunt is back! So, get the kiddos ready for the big hunt (tho truth be told, it’s more like a “gather”).

Weath...

Wildflowers, song & family drama

COVINGTON, Ky. – This recent cold spell has given us cabin fever. If you, like us, NEED to get outside this weekend, The Cov has plenty of events to grab your interest. For example, you can help tend to a pollinator garden … take a stroll and savor history, beer, and tasty food … and learn about wildflowers on a guided tour in Devou. Of course, “inside” is goo...

O’Madness, moons & Cyclones

COVINGTON, Ky. – We’re releasing this weekend’s narrative events calendar a day early because tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, and we don’t want you to miss out on all the festivities.

Quilts & rattlesnake venom

COVINGTON, Ky. – At first blush, those two topics might seem incongruent. One evokes coziness and comfort while the other spurs a watch-where-you-step shudder. But read on. Each plays a role in this weekend’s list of fun and entertainment in The Cov.

Mardi Gras, 'naked' trees & trivia

COVINGTON, Ky. – Did you know that the first recorded Mardi Gras street parade in New Orleans took place in 1837? Decades later, six men organized a rather clandestine Mistick Krewe of Comus and held a parade with the theme, “The Demon Actors in Milton’s Paradise Lost” and held a lavish ball. Demons on parade. Now that’s something to behold. Some theories maintain ...

‘Black’ wines, Sara Mackie & Pysanka

COVINGTON, Ky. – The Super Bowl is over. Too soon for March Madness. Valentines’ Day came and went. The weather, in a word, is gloomy. The ground’s too frozen to till, and the water is too cold to paddle (for most of us). However, there’s no need to despair at home. Here in the The Cov, even a light weekend calendar has fun to be had, starting tonight: 'Black&#...
