Weekend Family Fun | July 11-12, 2020

Make this a Summer to Remember! Join us for our 2020 Adventure. Scroll down for more information. It's still open for everyone!

Welcome to July in the Twin Cities! We’re still finding much of our time spent at home or close to it. Amidst the disappointment of having many of our treasured summer traditions cancelled (see you in 2021, Minnesota State Fair!) we’re seeking out ways to salvage the season and enjoy time outdoors with our family. Read on for park ideas, nature play, beaches open this summer and a do-it-yourself Fourth of July:

The question every parent wants an answer to is: “Will Minnesota go back to school in the fall of 2020?” We want to know, too. We are setting up this place to keep track of the latest information. As we all know, Minnesota schools moved to distance learning in March of 2020 and finished out the school year with that model.

Our Summer Adventure is perfect for the whole family.

Each week, we will send you an email with that week's activity challenge. Make sure to sign up at the bottom of this page to be formally entered into the contest. Each family (one entry per week) who completes the adventure and enters with a photo by Sunday at noon is entered to win that week's prize. If the activity is out on location, please let us know where you're adventuring!

Anyone who finishes 6 out of the 10 weekly adventures by August 24, 2020, is eligible to be placed in a drawing to win our fabulous Grand Prize. The last week to win an adventure weekly prize is August 10-16, 2020. We are giving you an extra week to complete a total of six summer adventures for the Grand Prize.

Raise your hand if you’re more than ready for a road trip this summer! A venture to Duluth often tops our list when we want to escape town for the weekend. While we can’t guarantee you’ll be able to fit this Top 10 list into your own weekend plans, it sure will be fun to try!

Fill up your tires, strap on a helmet and get ready to hit the trail! Minneapolis is a wonderful city to explore by bike, filled with parks, lakes, and an exciting downtown riverfront. Planning to bring the kids along? Perfect. Biking is a fun and healthy way for families to spend time together outdoors. We’ve sketched out four of our favorite Minneapolis bike trails that incorporate classic cityscapes with kid-pleasing attractions.

When looking for Woodbury Family Fun at local parks, we had to approach it a bit differently than with other municipalities. Woodbury plans new neighborhoods with a designated park space.
