Hey Saint Joe! Spring has officially begun and since Spring isn’t too hot nor too cold you may be a little stumped when thinking of new fun things to do. Let’s check out some fun things you could do this season!
The first activity on the list is hiking. If you like going outdoors and enjoying nature, Spring is the perfect time to go hiking. It’s not too cold or too hot and not much of the mosquitoes and bees are out yet. All you have to do is pick one of the warner days, and then you’re set! It’s great exercise and gives you a moment to forget everything and enjoy God’s creation.
The next activity is for people who need a little taste of the 4-H fair before summertime. You could attend one of the many Spring festivals in Indiana. One that is coming up pretty soon is the Dogwood festival. The Dogwood festival has food, arts and crafts, carnivals rides, and music, just like the fair. This festival takes place in Orleans Indiana, April 19th to April 26th.
Another idea for people who like being outdoors is going to Spring Mill State Park. The State Park has various things you could do there, like cave tours, boating, mountain biking, etc. After having fun at the state park there is also an Inn to rest in after an eventful day at Spring Mill.
The final activity isn’t strictly for during the Spring time but Spring is a good time do this. The final activity is go to Schimpff’s Confectionery. Schimpff’s Confectionery is not only a museum but has candy and shows you the history behind it, gives you a tour and shows you how the candy is made. This would be a good outing for when you’re looking for something calm to do with friends, that you’ve never done before.
