Cold Front Hits Canal Park

Cold Front Hits Canal Park

There's a lot going on this weekend in Duluth. Thursday marked the start of Cold Front Duluth. There was Duluth's largest coffee break Thursday morning which had everything you'd expect for a Duluth outdoor coffee break in February. Coffee from my favorite Duluth Coffee Co, doughnuts from The Greenery, and few fire pits to help fight that actually cold front that moved in with -3. Which, with the wind felt more like -10.

Major Larson was there to kick the festivities off with a proclamation. Proclaiming that "February 2018 is cold front February month in the City of Duluth."


After we all went back to work Grandma's Sports Garden had a great Happy Hour starting at 4pm.

Friday the fun starts back up at 4pm in the parking lot between The Inn on Lake Superior and the Comfort Suites. If you have been dying to try out a fat tire bike, this is your weekend. Since there will be Demos thanks to Day Tripper. There's going to a DJ spinning for us for some tunes. We may have to dance a bit to stay warm. Or there is (for those who are old enough to partake) the Grandma's Beer Tent! Which is also heated by the way!

Above is what this lot normally looks like, and you probably have driven by it a bunch of times and not noticed it. This weekend, you will notice! There's also going to be a curling sheet, and a "luge chute" for those who would like to slide. My favorite has to be the ice skate track along the Lakewalk! I haven't ice skated in years, but I really want to do this. And don't worry if you don't fit into your old pair, the City's Park Department will have a bunch of extra skates for you to use if you'd like.

Saturday has a full list of events as well. For the full list of events check out their web site Cold Front Duluth Events

So if you are finally done with that show you've been binge watching, head down to Canal Park. Toss a rock, ride a fat bike, have some s'mores and hang out the Duluth way! It's going to be a blast!
