Weekend Fun for Everyone!

It’s another weekend full of fun in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. If you are into sports we have just what you are looking for. If you are looking at getting your weekly exercise in while supporting a great cause, Cedar Rapids has it. Or if you’re looking at supporting a great cause while enjoying some sweet treats, Cedar Rapids is the place to be.


Start off your Saturday by joining hundreds of others at the Westdale Mall from 10:00am-noon to participate in the Juvenile Diabetes Walk to find a Cure. This annual event raises funds and awareness about this deadly disease in hopes that someday we may find a cure.

Once you get done walking enjoy the afternoon shopping or going out to lunch with friends, but don’t forget to stop by Eby Fieldhouse on the Coe College campus to watch the Iowa Conference Tournament Championship game as the Coe College Women’s Basketball team takes on Simpson at 4:00pm. It’s bound to be exciting.


After the game stop by Upper and Lower Gage on the Coe College Campus for the 10th annual Delta Dessert Gala and grab a sweet treat to support a great cause.
All of the proceeds from the annual Dessert Gala will be donated to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Iowa Heart Connection to help raise funds in hopes to make a difference in the lives of many children currently living with cancer.

And if you’re still looking for something to do after the Dessert Gala, head over to the Cedar Rapids Ice Arena and rock the stable by cheering the Cedar Rapids Roughrider’s on to victory as they take on Fargo at 7:05pm.


Saturday is a full day of fun in Cedar Rapids. So get out there and enjoy it!
