January 2010 Archives

The Fantastic Caverns of Springfield have fondly become known as America's only ride thru cave, or as RoadsideAmerica.com likes to refer to them, "the lazy man's dream."

However on February 2, Groundhog's Day, supporters of the local Relay For Life have the opportunity to participate in Springfield's 2010 Groundhog Mosey, a mile-long walking tour of the local Fantastic Caverns.

Groundhog Mosey will begin at 6 a.m. lasting last until about 8 a.m. The two-hour long time frame will provide participants with the chance to walk around the Caverns at their own pace, an opportunity that has not been allowed since the riding tour was created in the 1960's.

The event is going to cost participants $25, which will include a long sleeve t-shirt as well as an oatmeal breakfast bar provided by the Springfield Doubletree Hotel. With any further donations, participants can have their picture taken with Greta the Ground hog.

All proceeds will benefit the 2010 Relay For Life of Springfield. Participants can either register at www.relayforlife.org/springfieldmo or by mailing an enclosed check made payable to Relay For Life to the following address:
