Falls Park on the Reedy

<table><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Take your children. Take your family. Take your friends from out of town. It's "Freedom!" It's "Sparkle!" It's "Adventure!" It's a mix of Greenville and art! </td></tr></tbody></table><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"> </td><td colspan="1" rowspan="3">Greenville's bronze mice are spaced here and there, on one side of Main Street or the other, all the way from the Hyatt to the Westin Poinsett Hotel. Searching for them is a great way to get your exercise, learn about Greenville, see the art, even listen to music if you're downtown at the right time. To find the mice, you'll need the Mice on Main book or a set of clues--or both, if you plan to find them all. Here are some hints we created just for you. 1. Begin your search on North Main outside of the hotel restaurant where a fountain makes a wall of water. You'll find the father mouse, Marvin, reading his book. He can't hide--take a good look! 2. Mother Maggie is just across, sitting where she can see Marvin. When she looks down the street, she can see their five baby mice, placed here and there, all so sweet. 3. Cross the street and walk a bit. You'll see Marvin, Jr. at the top of the stairs where coffee lovers and computer gurus meet and poets love to count their feet. 4. Marcley's somewhere near the One Main Street plaza. Look around. You'll find him there. 5. Millie's a high "high-tech" girl. You'll really have to search, but give it a whirl. 6. Watch out! Mitch does his skateboarding in the bank's alley. You'll be lucky to find him; don't dally. 7. Across the street there's healthy stuff along the way. That's where Melissa loves to play. 8. You'll find Aunt Mifflin where there's money. She's looking at the flowers, honey. 9. Mifflin's husband, Uncle Miles, loves to eat Italian. He's by the rain spout. If you've found him, give a shout! That's what a mouse hunt is all about!</td></tr></tbody></table>

Mice on Main 

This is where it alllllll began. Tom saw Kendra for the first time on that fateful day in 2008, and a slow-boiling but everlasting romance was born.If you want to see where Tom and Kendra spend most of their days, or if you'd like to get your sweat on while your in town and the hotel gym just isn't cutting it, swing by the Life Center and mention the Garrett-Rorabaugh wedding at the front desk. You'll be asked to complete a guest waiver, but your $10 guest fee will be waived.Operating hours: Thurs 5 am-9:30 pm / Fri 5 am-8 pm / Sat 8 am-6 pm / Sun 1-6 pm
