Lake George

Lake George is a beautiful place to take your children to play in the splash pads, go on a family picnic, run or rollerblade around, or you can even rent paddle boats or canoes to float around on it.  The only downfall.... swimming is prohibited!

Some other really cool things they do there is they host events like summertime at Lake George where they have live bands every wednesday night during the summer.

This last weekend I attended a Walk to Defeat ALS where we did laps around Lake George in memory or in honor of people that have been diagnosed with this terrible incurable disease.  I walked in honor of my father and it was amazing to see all of the support that came from all over.  We raised 38,000 is just that one walk. It felt great to be a part of that.

If you have never been to Lake George, I feel that it is about time you check it out!

SCSU Mainstreet

Today was the Annual Mainstreet on campus at St. Cloud State University.  It was a huge success and was crawling with students.  There were tons of giveaways and I myself came home with a bag full of free things.

Mainstreet is a day picked out at the beginning of each year where students can come and see all the organizations we have on our campus.  There are hundreds of booths these organizations set up and have sign up sheets and giveaways to give to the students as an incentive to join.  Along with the organizations that set up camp a lot of off campus businesses such as Coborns and Wells Fargo come and give away coupons and try to gain business from the students.

Needless to say, whatever brings the students out there they definitely enjoy their time.

Riverside Trail

St. Cloud is filled with a lot of places people don't either know about or just haven't been too. Today I am featuring the trail that follows the river that people use to bike or run down for exercise. The trails are beautiful and you never know what your going to find on there.

(When I was recently roller-blading down there, I found the SCSU boys cross country team ;) )
