Today, Ambassadors met for coffee and treats at McNallys Foods. We discussed our must stop places in town where we take visitors. The list was huge and spanned activities for all ages and interests! It also wasn’t all encompassing of ALL the great things Grinnell has to offer but it was definitely a start!
Some downtown favorites were:
• McNally’s for coffee & lunch
• Grin City Bakery
• Central Park splash pad & playground
• Hotel Grinnell patio & scrabble
• Solera
• FRONTIER CAFE
Rainy day stops included:
• Grinnell College Athletics events
• Drake Community Library
• Shopping at Anna Kayte's Boutique & Beckman Gallery & Gifts
• West Side Family Restaurant
To get active people enjoyed going:
• Arbor Lake
• Lions Park
• Grinnell Mutual Aquatic Center
• Disk golf at Nyanza
• Skate park
It was great to hear the feedback Ambassadors get from their visitors about how much they love coming to Grinnell. Did you favorite place make the list? If not, let us know below!
