Fun doesn't always have to come at a steep price!  Try bike riding to Bob Jo's or packing a picnic and heading to Elizabeth or Bishop Park.  Bowling at Indian or Parkway Lanes is an inexpensive and active way to have fun on an otherwise 'blah' night.  Save some cheese by riding your bike to LTB and using The DD's 10% off coupon.  Get creative!
