No matter your age, interests or budget, you’ll find something fun to do in St. Louis this weekend.
St. Louis has experienced an impressive resurgence over the last decade, including a revitalized urban core, a burgeoning entrepreneurial spirit and scores of new cultural, recreational and entertainment options for residents and visitors alike. The sense of momentum is palpable, yet some perceptions of St. Louis have not kept pace with the reality of the renaissance our community is experiencing.
The St. Louis Civic Pride Foundation is amplifying STL’s transformation by taking our case to businesses, schools, social clubs and residents through a variety of tactics including civic pride training, educational curricula, events, marketing and social media. Our goal is nothing short of a cultural transformation to create a culture of confidence and competitiveness to propel our growth and quality of life.
To join our movement and get involved with the St. Louis Civic Pride Foundation, contact Brian Hall at bhall@explorestlouis.com.
The Explorer Series, curated by the St. Louis Civic Pride Foundation, showcases and amplifies many of the great aspects of our community and presents them in an entertaining and engaging fashion. This series of networking and educational events takes place six times a year, providing our hosts with an opportunity to brief attendees on their organizations while encouraging participants to help spread the word!
