2022
Upcoming Day Trips from Duluth

I love providing opportunities to go to places and events in the Northland, to learn, and build community.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ANY OF THESE TRIPS. LETS GET THE COUNTS TO 20+ people.

2022

No trips are offered at this time.
The 2022 fall theater trips to the Guthrie and Orpheum Theaters were cancelled due to too few registrations.

Unless there is a big group that wants to go to an arts event, the trips will no longer be offered. I've worked with many solo trip goers on trips and people contact me after deadlines have passed but overall the number of participants needed by the registration date haven't been happening since covid began.

Thank you to those who have gone on the day trips. Over 150 people have gone on the over 30 day trips held since 2016.

The day trips save you gas, save you from driving and parking hassles, add fun experiences to your day/life.

2022 The St Croix Vineyard Sept 11 trip didn't make but my husband and I went to it and here are some photos. We also went to the Belwin Conservancy to see the prairie restoration project and bison in Aftron. Anyone who wanted to got to try out grape stomping. We also sampled wine and ciders. We also got to tour the vineyard, learn about growing grapes and making wine. This vineyard was only 1 of 2 when they opened in the 1990s.
