We’ve got TWO fun things coming up: 🧘‍♀️ Skool Wellness IRL - a holiday-themed hangout with a short wellness chat + plenty of time to meet awesome humans. 🍽️ Volunteer Night at Open Arms MN in partnership with The JOY Project - come pack meals, spread joy, and make a real impact together. Both are in the Events/Calendar tab - go peek and RSVP with a DM to me if you haven’t yet. 🙌 Now I want to hear from YOU… What kind of IRL events would you love to see more of in 2026? 👉 POLL QUESTION: Which event should we plan next? Drop your vote in the poll + any wild/fun/crazy-but-awesome ideas below. This is OUR Minnesota community! Let’s build it together, one joyful meetup at a time. 🌟

We did it!!!!!! We brought online Skool into IRL!!! We weren’t the first (or second or even third) to take Skool offline, but we’re following the incredible example set by those who did - bringing this community to life in FRIGID MN! 🥶🥶🥶 Our Wild Goose Chase was our first adventure, but it was so much more than a meet-up. It was connection. It was laughter. It was proof that Skool isn’t just an online platform - it’s a living, breathing community. @Jeffrey Saathoff and @Stephanie Saathoff were amazing hosts!!!! (Oh and if you need a super cool hat for winter you NEED to see Stephanie’s creations!) And I want to thank @Goose Dunlavey and @Tony Loew for leading the way and helping to start to movement in so many cities across the world! So - here’s to the movement. Here’s to the people. And here’s to Skool - where community comes alive. 💛 AND - if you are in Minneapolis on Thursday join us at Pizza Luce in Roseville. So many more memories to make!

@Camille Kurtenbach - I hope you have the best day ever celebrating you!!!!! 🥳❤️🥳 AND …… if you are here and have not yet dropped your birthday ….. why not? We love to celebrate birthdays around here. Let me know when it is so I can get it on the calendar!!!!!

If every one of us invited just ONE person to this group today… we could literally double in size by tonight. 💥 Now, I know my fellow Minnesotans are still friends with someone from elementary school (probably your locker buddy or someone from the lake cabin next door 😆). So tag ‘em, text ‘em, or tell ‘em at hockey practice. It’s time to bring ‘em in! I’m talking to you @Jason Fish @Tony Loew @Sharon Prahl and @Jen Coenen (who IS my friend from elementary school!!!!!) And for everyone else, I bet you know a few folks who could use a little more joy, connection, and good ol’ Minnesota Nice in their lives. And here in talking to @Goose Dunlavey @Brennan Thompson @Shannon Koss!!! Let’s do it!!! Let’s double today! Because around here, the more the merrier (and probably the louder the laughter). 💛✨

Grab your mittens and your hotdish - because it’s time to meet our neighbors! We’re building a joyful, connected, real-deal Minnesota community… and that means we want to know YOU. Drop your answers below 👇 ☕ Favorite cozy MN coffee shop? ❄️ How do you survive winter? (Asking for a friend!) 🎶 What’s your go-to “windows down” summer song? 🎂 When’s your birthday?! (Because OF COURSE we celebrate birthdays in Minnesota!) 🌮 Hotdish or tacos? 💛 What’s one thing that brings you JOY lately? Bonus points if you include a fun pic - snow, pets, paddleboards, or Prince tributes all count. Let’s sprinkle a little MN magic and get to know the incredible humans who make this state (and this group) so awesome!
