Get Out This Weekend for Bowling, Running and Music

Check out O'Fallon Patch's new planner to help you make your weekend plans.

 

You've probably seen our O'Fallon Patch two planners, designed to help plan family friendly and grown-up weekend plans. Starting today we're combining the two to provide one-stop shopping for finding activities that appeal to kids and adults. Look for this new "Get Out" planner every Thursday at 6 a.m. Each one will feature at least five fun events, destinations and activities in or around O'Fallon. Sometimes we'll add a bonus item that may be a bit further afield, because there are times when  a great event is worth the drive!
