bayfront park

Remember the old wooden castle Playfront park in Duluth? A few similar ones still exist today if you're willing to do a little road trip for it.

It's been a long, long time coming for a normal weekend. This one sure felt good in Duluth.

The tree is up and with 150,000 new LED lights it will be brighter than ever!

They say all good things must come to an end, and that is the case for winter outdoor enthusiasts utilizing the Bayfront Family Center Warming House.

Now that the holidays are over, the kids are back in school and it's back to reality for everyone else. When everyone needs to get outside and burn off some energy, check out the free activities at the Bayfront Family Center.

It's been such a weird weather winter.  Not a lot of snow to the dismay of the snowmobile fans and any skier in the Northland.  For skaters it's been hit and miss too.  The warmer temps caused the Bayfront Family Center to close the ice rink.  There's good news and bad news, the good news, it's re-opened!  The bad news, not for long.

Isn't that the way it always goes?  The kids can't wait for school to get out for break, then they're bored.  Suddenly, you become the "activities director" and have to come up with stuff to do that is affordable, but fun.  The City of Duluth has you covered!  Skating, snowshoeing, bonfires and more!

This week is off to a fantastic, warm start.  While almost everyone enjoys the weather, ice skaters will not be among them, at least not at Bayfront Park.

The annual Duluth Kidney Walk begins at Bayfront Festival Park at 9 a.m. Saturday with check-in. The noncompetitive 3K walk begins at 10 a.m. The event also features music from local bands, food, children’s games with prizes, a health and wellness area, silent auction and complimentary massages.
