[CTMountaineer]

There's lots to do around here. Add in attractions in nearby PA and MD as well as several not mentioned here, and you'll find reasons to visit and stick around for awhile.

We have the best and biggest venues in our state in Morgantown too, numerous venues, that bring the biggest crowds here regularly. Puskar Stadium, The Coliseum, the Morgantown Event Center, The Creative Arts Center, Davis Theater, the Metropolitan Theater, and local clubs that regularly feature live entertainment of various sorts most nights of the week, and every night of the week part of the year provide lots of opportunities to see college athletics at the highest level, Broadway Plays, Symphony Concerts, Live Event Concerts, and the new WVU Art Gallery offers viewings, displays and educational offerings open to one and all. The new WVU Planetarium offers informative views of the Universe free of charge to the public. And, it just keeps getting better. The soon to be build Aquatic Center and water park at Mylan Park will be a state of the art facility that features Olympic quality swimming and diving facilities, the only such facility in West Virginia and something usually found only in very large cities, and a water playground for one and all outside the Center itself that will be open to all comers.

Thanks for this thread.

My GF, her 2 kids, and I will be daytripping to MoTown tomorrow, so they can see the City and she can determine whether it is someplace she'd like to move to

We are not outdoorsy people, so I was trying to come up with a few things to do in addition to looking at apartments and schools. Maybe we'll go to the Zoo.
