Like I said - I haven't painted since I was a kid and I was nervous (silly me) because I'm so untalented and have ZERO training or talent. But I painted a picture and I feel like I learned a few things. Mostly, it killed the apprehension inside of me. Now I feel like I can let the artist in me out and I now have some confidence. They provide everything (canvas, paint and brushes) - you only need to bring yourself and maybe a friend There's wine and egg rolls for those who want to snack and paint. The classes are small and are for all ages. I can't stress enough HOW MUCH I think people should do this! It was a great, new thing to do.

Well, I'll start out that I'm not a huge fan of outdoor fairs in swampy, humid Minnesota in the…read moresummer, but I also end up going to a lot of them. Anoka's county fair is a good one... maybe not the best, but a good one. (My favorite so far is the Steele county fair.) Better than the Ramsey county fair. You get the same feel of the State Fair on a smaller and more manageable scale: the smelly animals, the greasy, overpriced food, Midway rides and rigged carnival games, and plenty of crap for sale. Plus, if you go on the right (or wrong) day and time, you'll hear the loud sounds of a demo derby or tractor pull. The upside is that if you're not into roaring engine sounds and the aroma of diesel fuel, the grounds are actually big enough to get a bit away from that. So it sounds like I'm not a fan, but yet somehow I am. I do like this stuff in limited doses. There are also some musical acts as well-- we saw a good rock band, and I wish I could remember their name. Good story! Pro tip: word on the street (and their website) is that you need to get a seat right away for the demo derby. Pro tip 2: you probably won't find me there. Free parking is the in the giant lot across from the main entrance. From the south, turn left at the lights after the bend. From the north, turn right at the lights. Look for people in bright vests and throngs of people waiting to cross the street. There are probably better mappy app directions, but I'll leave those almost rural style directions for now (and forever). Have fun!!! PS: Holiday in Lights in early December is a better way to experience the Anoka fairgrounds, in my opinion, plus it's free admission / free parking, and nachos / popcorn / cider for free or for a donation. That is, if you can tolerate Santa, Jesus, inflatable Minions, and Christmas music at distorted levels over the PA system. I can. It has a small-town winter wonderland feel to it, somewhat vintage as well. Plus it's not 90 freakin' degrees out.

The theaters can use some deep cleaning. My seat wouldn't recline but we narrowed it down to maybe it wasn't even plugged in. However it was already dark in the theater so I gave up efforts. After the movie ended I looked behind the chair and it was indeed not plugged in but also very disgusting behind/under those seats. Also they are worn down. I hate that they don't have a welcoming lobby just a big waste of space. They had so many employees upfront at the ticketing area when they could have been cleaning.

After horseback riding with 8 and 11 at the Bunker Park Stables, we came to the Fun Lab for lunch…read moreand some gaming. There is a lot to do here and some of it is more experiential than most locations with games. They had laser tag, for instance, which the kids just loved. They had dodge-em cars which were very popular as well, but the games were not as good as we have experienced at Dave & Buster's in Edina or at the Burrough out in Victoria. Their game card is very confusing. You buy a $50 card, but it only has 25 points on it. But it gives you unlimited use of some of the experiential games. So we wasted a lot of time upfront trying to figure that out. Front desk staff was helpful, but in general, the supervising teenagers there were aloof and just doing their jobs. They have a small grill and the food was surprisingly good. My husband had an excellent hamburger with french fries and the kids and I each had small individual size pizzas which were very good. I asked the kids to rate it while we were in the car and they gave it five stars. But when they compared it to Dave & Buster's, they gave it no stars to Dave & Buster's 10 stars. I give it overall four stars and I'm taking a Star away because the bathrooms were dirty and 3 out of 4 bathrooms none of the water was working in the sinks so we couldn't wash our hands. They win on Dodge cars, laser tag, and decent snacks.

It shocked me how few people were in the bar at this time, because it's usually packed but it was lucky for us as we got really good seats.

They also have out free shots to everyone after every touchdown which I thought was so nice. They were purple too, it was awesome. I ordered the Caesar wrap and it was really good!!

Very high priced! And to me, was not worth this kind of money. It seemed very organized and it was smooth. We didn't wait very long to be seated. It felt spacious, but that could've been because we are the end of it. The desserts were very scarce at this time. Not being replenished either. I missed having mashed potatoes and gravy. No corn or beans. Prime rib was the best. A big yuck complaint of mine, yet tables were not wiped off after each guest!!! Very unsanitary and disgusting and gross!!! All they did was lay a cloth napkin over their table cloth . Yuck. It was gross. We had food crumbs leftover from the party of people before us. There was a long black beard type hair on the table! There was a spill. It had spots of grime. I just didn't want to even touch the table at all. I didn't want to set my plate on my napkin covering all this nasty from before me! Ish! It was very dirty. Even on a cloth tablecloth you have to wash it off. So, gross tables and the price was just too high. We will try somewhere else next year.

The shows are always thought provoking and intimate. The main stage is always surrounded by seating with viewers close enough to reach out and touch the cast members.

The theater offers concessions and beverages to consume during the shows, however this has been suspended during the pandemic. From the street the theater is part of a strip mall on Osseo and isn't anything remarkable. Parking is plentiful and fairly well lit.
