Recreational opportunities at Itasca State Park 

Temperatures are expected to remain in the double digits throughout the week, which means that now would be a good time to get outside, and enjoy the fresh air. If you want to get outside, but don’t know what you want to do, Connie Cox of Itasca State Park says they have plenty of recreational services available. 

Cox says now’s a good time to do some exploring in the park, as some animals are starting to come out for spring. 

In a time of year where many can start to feel cooped up in their homes, Cox says a trip to the park could also be very beneficial to your physical and mental health.
