We’ve got sunshine in the forecast and spring fun every direction we look
Families can choose from a myriad of events and activities this week in Champaign-Urbana
Let’s put this chilly spring weather we’ve had in April behind us and get excited for MAY! Because May brings so many things – the last days of school, opening days at the pools, new schedules and routines, and just a general switch-up in the pace of things for a three month season of the year. And in a few short weeks, we’ll be there once again!
This weekend is a good time to get in some solid spring fun. We’ll highlight a few of those events below. And summer is right around the corner! We have a lot to look forward to and we can’t wait to share it with you!
