There is so much to do in Meadville. There is an ice skating rink, a public pool, two movie theaters, restaurants, a couple bars, and a bowling alley. There are definitely activities to keep everyone busy on a Saturday night. We always have a blast on the weekends.

There are some fun parks I bring my kids to alot. There is also a trail that I love walking my two dogs on. Some people walk the trail, others ride their bikes on it. It is such a beautiful area to pack a lunch and spend the day. I have always loved living in Meadville, PA. Read Less
