There is a misconception that the midwest is full of sleepy farm towns with nothing to do.  The cities of Bloomington and Normal have a combined population of over 120,000, and the arts, entertainment, and recreation to keep all of those people busy. 

Whether its taking in a Shakespeare production under the stars, climbing inside a 65 foot grain silo, or touring the historical home of Abraham Lincoln's campaign manager, there is a little something for everyone.

We're happy to help coordinate after-training activities for a few people or a whole group.  In addition to this sampling of Bloomington/Normal hot spots, there are dozens of things to do in neighboring Peoria, Champaign, Urbana, and Springfield - all less than one hour's drive.
