I'm Bored!

As the weather has been getting nicer I've been getting a case of cabin fever. I'm ready to get out and do something!! I've been listening to my mom and dad talk and they said that gas prices are really high and it's hurting a lot of families financially. This got me to thinking about things we can all do that are close by and not that expensive. Here's what I came up with...

Go to Menominee Park. It's filled with fun things to do like the zoo, bumper & paddle boats, playground, beach, a train ride and lots of picnic areas.

The Gallery Walk which is the 1st Saturday of every month. You get to see what downtown has to offer while looking at art.

Live at Lunch which is on Wednesday's downtown near the sundial. You can eat lunch while listening to area bands.

The Farmer's Market. This is every Saturday once summer begins. Dad likes to buy mom flowers here because they're cheap but very pretty!

Area softball games. You can find a softball game most nights of the week at many of our area parks. There's nothing like America's past time!

WaterFest on Thursday's! Listen to live music and people watch!

The Speedzone. They have auto racing every Friday night. Mom thinks it's loud but dad likes the cars.

Ripon Good Cookies. Take a trip to Ripon for a taste of cookie heaven!

Tour a cheese factory. Get to know why Wisconsin is the dairy state. You can take a short trip to Freemont and tour Union Star Cheese Factory.

Go fishing. The Fox Valley area is surrounded by beautiful bodies of water. Take advantage of it!

Here are a few websites filled with many more ideas for what to do this summer. Here ya go!
