On Mondays you can see if you can beat the clock in The Escape Room! This exciting fast paced game is great for challenge seekers. You are locked in a room and you have 45 minutes to escape. Can you do it? Just remember to buy your tickets in advance!

We have slice night at Court Side Pizza, where you can get a slice for only 50 cents (Whoa!) If you’re not in the mood for pizza, you can check out Larry’s Dawg House for 99 cent hotdogs and corndogs: talk about cheap college food!

Thursday
After enjoying and indulging in your Wine-Down Wednesday nights, try taking a hike or walk around Stroud’s Run State Park. This is a wonderful park tucked away in the middle of a college town. It’s perfect for a mid-day stroll or even a picnic.

Saturday
I love using a Saturday to plan a theme party: you never know what to expect! This is a fun way to get to know people. Try planning theme parties like Clue (complete with role playing and costumes) or Scene It.

Sunday
After a busy week, it’s time to relax! Try going to Lake Hope Lodge for their brunch. They have a couple tables outside that overlook the lake. It’s a very tranquil way to end the week! The brunch is from 10AM-2PM. They have a buffet style brunch; I guarantee you won’t be disappointed!
