MINI GOLF
Pick up a club and move outdoors to minigolf. It might take a swing (or five) to get your ball up the grain auger at the Farmyard Minigolf Course at Rocky Meadows Country Getaway.

BIG THINGS!
Take your picture at the huge Pyrogy in the Village of Glendon. The Pyrogy stands 25 feet tall, 12 feet wide, and weighs 6,000 pounds. Grab a bite at the food truck on the other side of the park and check out the zipline in the playground right behind the giant dumpling.
But don’t stop there — cross another one of the Alberta BIGS off your list by visiting the Bonnyville and District Museum where a giant carving of Angus Shaw keeps an eye on the artifacts of the Bonnyville area. See more about the museum on Page 60.
