'Long Weekend'

^ We love those two words. For many of us, it’s an opportunity to relax. Personally, I find myself falling back to the same ol’ routine of sleeping in, throwing on Netflix, and sharing snacks with my family. Maybe I’ll take an extra trip to the gym and burn a few extra calories. But isn’t there something more exciting we can do? I asked around for several, local hot-spot tips in the Kitchener-Waterloo area. Who knows, maybe we’ll bump into each other?

The Chicopee Tube Park

Suit up for winter and prepare for an outdoor adventure! The hill is 250 ft high and has 6 chutes. Children must be 3.5 feet tall and at least 4 years old to ride. There's also a convenient 'magic carpet' lift that pulls you up to the top of the hill. It's super fun, and most importantly, they’re OPEN ON FAMILY DAY between 7am - 5pm!

Huron Natural Area

Take a deep breath and welcome the great outdoors. Discover Kitchener's largest naturalspace filled with forests, meadows, hiking trails and lookout areas. There's also a children's natural playscape! Located on Trillium Drive in the south end of the city, Huron Natural Area has something for everyone. Bring out your cameras and enjoy nature's serenity.

Here's how to get there.

 Marvel’s Black Panther (PG-13)

Just in time for Family Day weekend, what began 10 years ago with Iron Man, Marvel’s Black Panther hits theatres TODAY! Will we learn of the whereabouts of the final Infinity Stone? How will this tie into Infinity War? This is one of our most anticipated films of the year. Bring the whole family!  And don’t forget to stay until the end of the credits for the stinger!

Well, those are just a few things I’m considering with the family. The last thing I want to do is clean the house or think about work. It’s a 4-day work week coming up, and we’ve got the perfect plan for you. Check out our 4-PACK PLAN or TRY ME non-subscription pack and we’ll have it delivered Tuesday Morning so you have lunch for the whole week (order by 2pm this Sunday).

Until next time, have a wonderful long weekend! Stay warm!
