Well you know what you should be doing on Monday (see Memorial Day special section inside this edition), so I’m going to tell you what to do this Saturday. Sure, you could grill out and get your burger and hot dog on, but that’s so unoriginal. How about staggering around D.C. like the undead in search of beer and brains at The DC Zombie Crawl?

First, the hordes will meet on the National Mall where you can get your zombie makeup done up right by professional artists and then it’s time to wander (slowly, mind you– you’re a zombie) around the Mall. After a little zombie fraternization, those 21 and over will Metro over to Adams Morgan to continue the party with no covers and drink specials for participants. All this undead revelry is for a good cause as Zombie Crawl donations will go towards the Stillbrave Childhood Cancer Foundation.

What: The DC Zombie Crawl
