Celebrate Redwood Falls’ ninth annual NightFalls event

Celebrate Redwood Falls (CRWF) is responding to the unanticipated success of last year’s NightFalls Drive-thru event by combining the popular roadway lighting and previous years’ lighting of the falls and trails to make this year better than ever. In addition to the light displays along the road, the event will include over three miles of lighted trails throughout Ramsey Park. Three designated sections of trails will contain cutouts of animals, fairies and dinosaurs to discover while walking through the woods! Ramsey Park includes two waterfalls and both Ramsey Falls and the Falls of the Redwood will have lighting to highlight the natural beauty of these distinctive waterfalls.

A Day for Mother

Mother's Day is the one day a year when Mother gets to put her feet up and is waited on hand and foot by her minion. Father brings her an iced coffee, just the way she likes it. The children deliver the remote control, blankets, and a snack. Uninterrupted, Mother watches an entire episode of BBC-produced British period piece on PBS. It is pure bliss.
