As spring rolls into town, St. Paul is gearing up for a series of community events that promise to put a little hop in everyone's step. The city has announced a slew of activities, from egg hunts to roller skate parties, aimed at celebrating the warmer weather and getting folks out and about after a long winter cooped up indoors. It's all about community spirit and a little bit of seasonal rejuvenation.

Things kick off on March 23 with the Spring Holiday Carnival at Arlington Hills, where families can enjoy a festive atmosphere from noon to two in the afternoon. According to the city's official announcement, it's not just about fun and games—there's also an opportunity for locals to channel the spring cleaning ethos and contribute to neighborhood beautification efforts.

As April showers bring May flowers, the Spring Fling Campus Party at Linwood on April 18th is set to make a splash from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. With a mix of music, food, and dance, college students and community members alike have the chance to unwind in a lively environment, infusing the campus with the season's dynamic energy. It’s a textbook example of a community gathering done right, as students mingle with residents, fostering a broader sense of unity.

Strap on your skates, because on May 17, the Roller Skate Party at McDonough is ready to roll from 4 to 5:30 pm. The event is set up as a breezy throwback for skaters of all ages to whirl around the rink and flash some fancy footwork to the beat of retro tunes. The following day, May 18, will see the Spring Celebration hosted at Edgcumbe from 1 to 3 pm, rounding out the city's springtime festivities with what's expected to be a vibrant mix of merrymaking and community spirit.
