1. Head down to Gasoline Alley’s Farmer Market this weekend and treat your family to some delicious tacos from Taco Monster or maybe a craft beer from Craft Beer Commonwealth or Troubled Monk. It is then off to shop at one of the many shops located throughout the market, don't forget to stop and get a sample at D&A Gardens and Our Roots Estate Winery.

2. The snow is melting so why not rent an electric Fat Bike or e-Scooter from the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame and go exploring in the trails behind, afterwards stay for some play in the hall, have you tried their new bubble Hockey game so cool. The City of Red Deer has their e-scooter up and running again so look out for the various scooters, located Downtown and in Capstone, just remember they are only allowed on the sidewalks and trails.
