It's that time of year again - our office is busy preparing for many warm-weather activities! Grinnell Games, presented by Grinnell State Bank, is just 59 days away! Make sure to mark your calendar for June 16th - 18th to bring your family out for another great weekend of activities. Returning events include the popular 5k Warrior Run on Friday night, co-ed sand volleyball tournament and UV Splash run/walk on Saturday, and the 5K run on Sunday morning.
We've also added two new events to this year's lineup. Saturday's activities will kick off with a Sprint Triathlon which will start with a swim in the Natatorium at Grinnell College, a bike ride out on the trails near Rock Creek State Park, and a run through downtown Grinnell. You can complete the whole thing yourself or sign up as a team of 3 to tackle this event!
Saturday afternoon, take a bike ride through downtown Grinnell, as a part of another new event, "Tour de Grinnell". This family-fun ride will bring you to some of Grinnell's favorite shops and treat you to a scenic tour of the latest art installations in town.
In addition to these great events, a Movie Under the Stars will be held Friday night, the Lil Warrior Run returns Saturday morning followed by free field day activities Saturday afternoon and Sunday.
