Off topic:
We've been trying to figure out what to do with our spare time other than outlet mall shopping/eating places. What would you do for fun, especially in Richmond? I'm asking for our student team members and adults. |

Re: VCU Regional??
The CAA men's basketball championship tournament is going on at the Richmond Coliseum March 7-10. I know I will be there.
If that isn't your thing, there is a bowling alley ~10 min west on Broad street from the Siegel Center also. Movie theatre another 5 min after that. |

Re: VCU Regional??
Don't forget VCU's school of engineering usually has an open house on Thursday night and then you have the team social on Friday at the Virginia
Science Museum. |

Re: VCU Regional??
thanks, we were planning to attend both. I like the bowling and movie idea also. Is it worth driving an hour or so south or west? Any sights to see?

If you go east you can hit the Air and Space Museum down in Hampton, that's just over one hour down 64. West, about an hour and a half away is Charlottesville, and I'm not too sure what there is south of town. |

Re: VCU Regional??
Richmond is rich in History. There are many sites in the area related to the settling of Virginia to the Civil War to the Civil Rights Movement. Williamsburg is roughly an hour away. If you want to take a side trip, Thomas Jefferson's University of Virginia and Monticello are 1.5 hours away and Washington D.C. is 2 hours away.

On nice weather days, Belle Isle is a terrific place for outside running around and general relaxing. Access is via bridge hung under Belvedere Street is and right by the VCU campus. Many students go there on nice spring days, or swimming in warmer summer days. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belle_Isle_(Virginia) Maymont Park is also fun, there is a small zoo there in addition to the gardens. http://www.maymont.org/ The CAA basketball tournament is Friday-Monday, with games downtown at the Richmond Coliseum. http://www.caasports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=43048&SPID=3455&DB_OEM_ID=8 500&ATCLID=1402043 About an hour and a half west is Charlottesville, with Monticello. Would make a nice half day trip. http://www.monticello.org/ About an hour east is Williamsburg and a bit past that is Jamestown. http://www.history.org/ http://www.historyisfun.org/ Headed north, you have DC about two hours away on the way to Annapolis with all that DC has to offer. That is what comes to mind right now. If you had any other suggestions or details I could likely find something else fun. Cheers Wetzel (Born in that pink hospital) |
