Things To Do: St. Paul Winter Carnival
  • Tip Rating:
  • It's seasonal but if you can brave the cold, St. Paul has a carnival to celebrate winter. They have a torchlight parade and a hunt for a madalian with some cash prize award. Check out their web site and see the many different activities one can take in during The St. Paul Winter Carnival.

    My photograph is the new ice castle built for the 2004 St. Paul Winter Carneval.

  • It's seasonal but if you're in St. Paul in the Summertime and you're a fan of the Charles M. Schulz character The Peanuts, take in Peanuts on Parade.

    Every year St. Paul dedicates it's town to one character from The Peanuts cartoon strip in honor of St. Paul native, Charles M. Schulz.

    Year 1: Snoopy and Woodstock
    Year 2: Charlie Brown
    Year 3: Lucy van Pelt
    Year 4: Linus van Pelt

     Nice views of your home town. We enjoyed our recent visit there. Now your restautant tips have made me hungry so I've gotta go find some lunch.

     Greg, wonderful coverage of St. Paul. I worked there ('62-'66) and loved to eat at The Lexington on Grand. Helped with press entertainment room-St. Paul Winter Carnival, too. Long live VULCAN!!! Doug
