ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- Fall is finally in the air, and it’s the perfect weekend to get out and enjoy it. From outdoor adventures to local shopping and even bowling for a cause, there’s something for everyone. It’s time to See St. Joseph.

First up, lace up your boots and join local nature guide Ann Marie for a Fall Foliage Hike at River Bluff Trails Park, located at 4101 Huntoon Road.

The hike will begin at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 25. Bring shoes fit for hilly gravel trails, a water bottle and some binoculars if you have them. This family-friendly hike is open to all ages and trail experience levels.

Be ready to spend about an hour on the bluff trails. Pets are asked to stay home to give everyone the best chance to spot local wildlife.

Next, shop, sip and support local during the She Means Business Shop Crawl, happening from 5 to 9:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 24.

The event is happening at 3855 Frederick Avenue, in honor of National Women’s Small Business Month. A $30 registration gets shoppers exclusive discounts at some of their favorite local spots, including: Polished Pretty by Em, Hazel's Coffee Company, Juniper Lane and more. Shoppers will also get a She Means Business event T-shirt and refreshments. The first 50 people to register will also get a swag bag loaded with goodies from each shop! Check in at each store and be entered to win a grand prize.

Finally, strike up some fun for a cause!

The 12th Annual Strike Out Cancer Bowling Event rolls into Belt Entertainment this weekend with two separate days of bowling. The event will run from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 24, and from 1 to 3 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 26.

Teams can include four to six bowlers, and it’s $25 per person, which covers bowling and shoe rental.

Every dollar raised goes to help cancer patients in the St. Joseph area cover costs like medication, lodging, transportation and more. To register, visit the Strike Out Cancer St. Joe MO Facebook page.

Three ways to explore, shop local and give back all in one unforgettable weekend. Tune in every Thursday to News-Press NOW for more ways to See St. Joseph!
