What a nice looking Wednesday! Maybe a bit chilly, but love that sunshine! |
On Monday I was on Minnesota Live on KSTP-TV talking about this week being the kickoff of garage sale season with over 40 entries on our Minnesota City Wide Garage Sale List! It was fun chatting with Megan Newquist and Chief Meteorologist Ken Barlow, who confirmed that the weather DOES look good for the weekend. If you want to see it, you can find the show segment on the KSTP site.
You can also still see Monday's newsletter here for more about the Minneapolis Rodeo with a ticket discount and your chance to win FREE tickets, Rick's Bike Sale with 450 refurbished bikes, Weisman Art Museum and more.
If you enjoy this newsletter, I would love if you would forward it to a friend, co-worker or family member! If they also like it and want to receive the newsletter to their own email inbox, they can subscribe HERE.
I'll meet you back here again for the Friday newsletter. In the meantime you can keep up with us on Facebook or the website! Thank you for reading. It's appreciated!

Minnehaha Creek Duck Race Saturday
One rubber duck is cute. Hundreds or thousands of them all floating down the creek at once is pretty amazing!
This Saturday is the fifth annual Minnehaha Duck Race. Hosted by the Field Regina Northrop Neighborhood Group, sponsors can "adopt" a duck and everyone can watch them travel down Minnehaha.
There are other fun events going on around the race including free face painting, an inflatable obstacle course for kids, food trucks, a firetruck visit and fun activities and tables from local organizations, Minneapolis Animal Care & Control (including adoptable pups!), MPD Mounted Police and more.

Fraser Festival is a sensory-friendly festival taking place this Saturday, May 2nd in St. Paul. ALL are welcome and the event is FREE!
The event encourages everyone to come as they are, welcoming people of all ages, abilities, neurodiversities, cultures, and backgrounds and offers accommodations for those with sensory processing differences.
They have lots of fun planned with music, movement, games, food, and entertainment in zones that engage each of the body’s eight senses - the 5 most of us already know PLUS proprioception (coordination), vestibular (balance/movement), and interoception (feeling).
