Cole Camp

Last Saturday (Oct.12), I decided to make my way to Cole Camp to check out some of the Oktoberfest events. I have never been to an Oktoberfest celebration, and Cole Camp is known for its strong German heritage, so it was the perfect place to attend my first one.

Here's a look at the various goings on this weekend!

Well it's October, so that means we're gearing up for Halloween, apple orchards and all that fun stuff. But there's also another event to look forward to this month: Oktoberfest! The traditional German festival is cause for a lot of fun, and a lot of drinking! I had the chance to speak with Beer and Wine expert Jim Laughren over the phone, and he gave us a whole bunch of info on the subject. Read

I'm not a golfer. The last time I played golf was in 2009, and the last time before that was...never. It's not really my thing. I'm just more into sports where what you do actually affects your opponent. However, I'm always down to go try something new, and this was for a good cause, so I figured I'd give it a try.

There's certainly a lot going on this weekend!  Here's an overview of what you can see and do.

Many people in our area love the outdoors. Since we have so many great agricultural groups and organizations, this kind of stuff goes hand in hand. One event that's coming up this Saturday will be the best of those two worlds.

I decided to do some father/son bonding and decided to head to Cole Camp with my son, Gabriel. You may know that I grew up in Germany, so I think the German heritage in Cole Camp is something that brings me to my youth. I always love seeing the sign "Cole Camp is Wunderbar" as you drive down Highway 65 from Sedalia.

When I was a kid, the libraries here in town were some of my favorite places to be.  I'd walk down Third Street and stop by both branches and spend hours reading magazines,  browsing books and listening to records.  I don't know if that's something kids do these days, but there are a lot of great things that are in store for the kids and the adults at the Boonslick Regional Library.
