A few additional showers you might try include the alpha Scorpids (May 03),
alpha Capricornids (July 30), Kappa Cygnids (August 18), and Geminids (Dec
14). Of course there is also the Virginids, but I couldn't give you a best
date to observe.

There are more dates that would probably also be good to observe, these are
the ones I could think of off the top of my head.

Hope this helps!
