It is always nice to see all the lights during the Holidays, especially Leahy Mall with all of the trees lit. On the Con Agra campus, there is a skating rink that opens at 1 pm daily. For $5.00, you can rent skates and skate for as long as you want. A great activity for you and the kids or even a date. Warm up with some hot chocolate afterward. The closing ceremony finishes on New Years Eve, with a free fireworks show.

I had a basket full of stuff and the 100 whistling missiles were marked at 6.99. At the register you cant see what items ring up at. These missiles were ringing up and over $27. I happen to ask what they were ringing up at and was shocked. I took them to the sign and the guy ripped it off and said the register is right. I did not proceed with the purchase. Wild Willy's is expensive and their customer service is terrible. I found much better deals and nicer people at other fireworks stands. If you buy there make sure you check your receipt.

Most recently, we attended a Sunday afternoon game for Family Fun Day, and there were plenty of interactive booths and activities for kids, which made it especially enjoyable for families.

My friend and I got there right after work on Friday about 20 minutes early. The upside was that we got close parking without having to take the shuttle and were able to walk around and check out the building and grounds before it got too crowded. The downside was that the food wasn't ready to be served until about a half hour later and I was starving! When we finally did get a chance to eat, I took full advantage of sampling some of the homemade specialties including a sausage & pepper sandwich, salad, garlic bread, fried calamari, and fried dough. My friend got a thick slice of sausage pizza and a gelato. As a side note, this year they offered a gluten free menu, also. We both got cannoli, biscotti and other pastries to go. The food was excellent if a little pricey. If you have a healthy appetite like me and want to try one of everything, bring a decent amount of cash. It is their annual fundraiser, however, and a fun festival. There were musicians, dancers, live music, food demonstrations, bocce ball, fireworks, and plenty of activities for children. Fun for the whole family.
