Family Fun

Instead of asking "What is there to do?", your family will be asking "How can we do it all?". As you may know by now, Knox County is for everyone. The curious explorer, thrill seekers and any family member in between.

Here are a few must-dos for the folks in your family; and when you can't decide on one, extend your stay and do them all!

Curious Explorers

  • Disc golf at Thayer Ridge Park Disc Golf Course.

  • Spend an afternoon combining science and play at SPI Spot.

  • Visit the South Main Plaza Dog Fountain, featuring painted sculptures of 18 dogs, one cat, a pony and an apple. Challenge: Can you find the two pairs of birds at the fountain?

  • Join the Knox County Park District in a Geocache journey to discover caches placed in our Knox County Parks.

Foodie Fanatics

  • Bring your sweet tooth to Almost Famous Sweets & Sodas.

  • See if your family can finish the nearly 24-inch, infamous "Homestead Pancake" at Homestead Family Restaurant.

  • Grab your spoons and order the "Feed Trough" at Round Hill Dairy. Five scoops of ice cream, six toppings of your choice, whipped cream and cherries.
