Imagine you’re sitting at home with close friends and family around the campfire on a cool fall night, roasting marshmallows for s’mores. You can see the leaves falling, as the cool breezes brushes past your skin and the bonfire keeps you nice and toasty. You’re comfortable and you’re enjoying time with loved ones with the weather that feels like home. These moments are only some of the amazing moments that spending fall in Wis. will bring you.

There are so many things that spending fall in Kenosha and Racine allow you to do and so many memories that can be created from them.
