May 16, 2015 Morning Activities (at your leisure and pace)
Invite a former classmate to get to know the new town you grew up in or time on your own.
Puyallup Riverwalk Trail- Did you know Puyallup has a paved trail along the river that stretches to Mt. Rainier? May would be a perfect time to stroll along the Puyallup Riverwalk Trail. If you're into running or hiking, take the trail east towards Sumner and Orting the paved path runs over the old railroad that used to extend to Mt. Rainier. It meanders through the back of former daffodil farms and against the bank of the Puyallup River. Click the link above that takes you to the City of Puyallup and then the link to the map. (FREE optional, at your leisure)
Anthem Coffee and Tea- Is there a Starbucks in Puyallup? The answer is yes! Puyallup's downtown Starbucks is located a drive to 303 River Road in front of Fred Meyer (formerly Hi Ho). A better choice might be local Anthem Coffee and Tea located adjacent to Pioneer Park. Get your beverage early Saturday, then head to the Farmer's Market. If you want to pick-up your poker run card at this time, go for it! (optional at your leisure)
Farmer's Market- Located in Pioneer Park, Saturdays April-September. Tour arts and crafts, grab yourself some fruit from local farmers for breakfast, locally baked breads, light lunch or simply relax a spell in front of the library steps and people watch. If it gets hot, head across Meridian to Elements Frozen Yogurt. (optional at your leisure)
