Contact the Winona Convention and Visitors Bureau and ask for our detailed bicycling and canoeing guide. Skateboarders have their own park at the East Recreation Center. In concert with the water theme, golf courses in the Winona area include water hazards, too. The private Winona Country Club is tournament-caliber with many hills. Jr. Non-members can play if they live more than 30 miles away.
All courses have a pro shop, club rental, restaurant and refreshments.
After you've played those three, Winona is close to a dozen courses within easy driving distance. As the warmest area in Minnesota, golfing can be comfortable in March as well as November. Swimming at Winona's Bob Welch Aquatic Center offers more than a typical municipal pool. The pool is 18,000 square feet with an olympic-size swimming area, a diving area with two boards, and a large shallow area with a waterfall and spray fountain for children. A deck with concessions overlooks the pool.
