A Look Ahead …

Today’s look ahead is going to strat with a look behind. Last weekend, opening weekend for Worlds of Fun, included times with the Easter Bunny.

The above photo was taken on Saturday in the new entry plaza. My family was too busy with church and larger family activities on Easter to actually make it to the park, though the park was open. So we’ve already missed one day.

This coming weekend the park is open 10-10 Saturday and 10-7 Sunday.  We expect to get to the park on Saturday, but I don’t know about Sunday. Because there are two other events I will be in on Sunday.

The first event, starting at 8:30 a.m. Sunday, is the Northland Half Marathon/5K I will be running my first half marathon at that time.  The round is described thus: “The Northland Half route has it all: Line Creek Trail, road through Riverside and pebbly Missouri River Levee. It is diverse, flat and beautiful.”

The current weather forecast for Sunday is sunny and a high of 70. Of course, the low Saturday night is 42, so the start of the race could be a bit chilly. Which is how I usually enjoy running, better than the heat.

After running for nigh on two hours in the half marathon, I will head on down to my afternoon concert. I have a 1:30 call, but the audience can show up a 3 p.m. at Faith Lutheran Church Prairie Village KS 4805 W 67th St, Prairie Village, Kansas 66208

The concert will feature antiphonal works for choir and brass, along with new works by local composers. Admission is free, with donations accepted.

Those are the events for the weekend.

So now I will end the post with the current stats for the All Season Dining Plan at Worlds of Fun.

There are some assumptions in the numbers above, but you will gradually see certain numbers grow quite large, while the per unit prices go down.
