Camping and Country Stampede - Manhattan, KS Last weekend I went camping. Last weekend was also Country Stampede so Tuttle Creek Lake was out

Manhattan Area Insight

  • Ask a Local Expert a question about Manhattan.
    Last weekend I went camping. Last weekend was also Country Stampede so Tuttle Creek Lake was out of the question, as was Milford Lake since the blue algae was in bloom and I wanted to swim. So, I took a short 40-minute jaunt south to Council Grove Lake. If you're looking for variety in your camping routine, I highly recommend it. Richey Cove has many of the amenities that we love, it's not too far from Manhattan, and it's not too far from Council Grove. I would encourage you to check it out sometime.

    Manhattan Gymnastics Academy offers tons of great activities for your kiddos! Along with gymnastics lessons, they host a kids night out, birthday parties, and Gym N'Learn for preschool aged children. This is a great opportunity for your child to be introduced into a fun and exciting environment to learn and exercise. Time is spent in the classroom doing crafts, circle time, and activities, while the remainder of the time is spent out in the gymnastics studio and offers children more individualized attention in gymnastics lessons. My daughter has attended here for quite some time and it has been a great introduction to prepare her for Kindergarten as well as get that pent up energy out and put it towards doing something fun and productive.

    Can you believe that summer is almost over? School will be starting next week and the city is starting to swell as people come from all corners of the globe to attend Kansas State University. Just watch as things pick up around town - traffic, activity, you name it. We're getting busy and there's a reason Manhattan is affectionately called "Manhappenin'"

    Every now and then, the heat and humidity of the Kansas summer gives way to a good ol' rainstorm. I rolled over in bed to hear the sound of raindrops hitting my roof. And it has rained all morning. It's a nice relief for now. It's cool and refreshing. Perhaps I'll go dancing. I might as well since as soon as the rain stops, it will be hot and even more humid and I'll be back to living in the AC or the pool. Until then, let it rain!

    More Road Construction
    Two phenomena occur in Manhattan, and thankfully they coincide. From the end of May until the middle of August, the population of this beloved city is nearly cut in half. I believe that's our best estimate. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Also, Manhattan suffers the attack of the orange cone. Yes, road construction. Fortunately, we have fewer people to get around town, and traffic is kept moving fairly well, but it can be a nuisance, nonetheless.

    The interchange at Fort Riley Boulevard and Seth Childs Road is being overhauled. I'm not quite sure what point they're trying to get across. I just hope the end result will be more efficient traffic flow. There's also construction on West Anderson Avenue, College Avenue, and Denison, to name a few more. One of my friends joked that Manhattan may have run out of orange cones. At least, I hope it was a joke, and I hope the orange tide will wane by the time the purple tide (K-State) comes in.

    Wonders of the Prairie
    There are days that I'm especially amazed with the place I've chosen to call home. Today was one of them. It started out hot and muggy - one of those days you step outside and your glasses instantly fog over. And then the storm clouds started to form and the thunder started to roll. An ordinary summer day in July was interrupted, my glasses cleared and I was able to see new beauty all around me. It was the contrast of the graying skies with the bright green grass and the flowers in bloom. It was the song the sky was singing to me. It was the hope of life-giving rain (and that I might get out of having to water the garden tonight). Whether it rains here or goes around us, I won't know until it happens. It is Kansas, after all. Is it fair to say I really don't want to water the garden tonight?

    K-State Natatorium
    Enjoyed a swim today at the K-State Natatorium. Had to sneak into the parking lot due to road construction on Denison Avenue, but that's okay. The cool water more than made up for it.
    I've found that most people in Manhattan don't realize what a great resource the Nat is - and it's available to the public! Anyone can join the Kansas State University Alumni Association for $40/year. That grants you access to the pools and then it's $3/visit ($1.50 for children). Between the Natatorium and Manhattan's public outdoor pools, you could be swimming year-round.

    The Little Apple
    For anyone who lives or has lived in Manhattan, you know there is just something special about there. It is a place where kids ride their bikes on the sidewalks and people wave at their neighbors passing by! Usually in communities like this there is a lack of activities to do, always having to drive into the "big city" for weekend fun, but not here! There is always so many activities to choose from you actually end up missing out on some from being double booked! If you are looking for a place for you and your family to call home, look no further and the entire town will be here waiting to welcome you with open arms!
