Fun In Minnesota Today - Grand Old Day June 6, 2010

One of my favorite days of the year in Minnesota is Grand Old Day in St. Paul. This year will be no exception. There is the parade, sporting events, bands, and over 140 outdoor food and merchandise vendors.

Grand Old Day, St. Paul's first rite of summer, takes place along the city's historic Grand Avenue annually on the first Sunday in June. Grand Old Day is produced by the Grand Avenue Business Association as its annual fundraiser. Monies collected at the event go towards marketing the Avenue, annual events, business-to-business opportunities and avenue beautification.

This year Grand Old Day will be held June 6, 2010 from 7:45-5:00. If you don't have any plans for today be sure to check it out!
