This weekend, the FREE benefit Concert, WOODYSTOCK, returns to Peacock Park in Coconut Grove. Free admission! Enjoy amazing live music, food from local vendors, a beer garden and kids activities.

Tylenol for orphans in Haiti. The Better Florida Foundation, in collaboration with Dade Medical College and the University of Southernmost Florida, will be collecting Children's Tylenol to send to Haiti as part of relief efforts for the recent Chikungunya Virus outbreak which has affected over 1,529 people. While rarely fatal, this virus can take several weeks - and sometimes months - to heal from. Help the children of Haiti today by donating new and unopened Children's Tylenol bottles at your campus. The last day to donate items will be Friday, June 6.
