Are you looking for something fun to do? Something free? Something that can be done in a day? Well, I know a place just for you. Menominee Park Zoo, located in Oshkosh, is right near Lake Winnebago.

Summer is right around the corner, and I’ve got a suggestion for you! Visit Bay Beach Amusement Park! If you haven’t been to Bay Beach, you need to go. If it’s been a while, what are you waiting for?
