We’ve got TWO fun things coming up: 🧘‍♀️ Skool Wellness IRL - a holiday-themed hangout with a short wellness chat + plenty of time to meet awesome humans. 🍽️ Volunteer Night at Open Arms MN in partnership with The JOY Project - come pack meals, spread joy, and make a real impact together. Both are in the Events/Calendar tab - go peek and RSVP with a DM to me if you haven’t yet. 🙌 Now I want to hear from YOU… What kind of IRL events would you love to see more of in 2026? 👉 POLL QUESTION: Which event should we plan next? Drop your vote in the poll + any wild/fun/crazy-but-awesome ideas below. This is OUR Minnesota community! Let’s build it together, one joyful meetup at a time. 🌟

We’ve got our eyes on a big goal - to make Minnesota a proud stop on the Goose World Tour 2026! And what better way to kick things off than with three epic IRL events in December! 🎨 Rochester - The Wild Goose Chase December 7 at 1:00 pm Our first IRL meetup hunting down Rochester’s whimsical goose statues. Will we find the “real” one on the first trip? Come explore, laugh, and snap some pics with us. 🍕 Roseville - Holiday IRL at Pizza Luce December 11 at 6:00 pm Pizza, community, and big MN Skool energy. We’ll hang out, talk Skool + JOY, and dream up what’s next for our Minnesota crew. 🎁 Cottage Grove - Annual Toy Drive in Partnership with The JOY Project December 12 at 1:00 pm Volunteer with us at the Annual Toy Drive and help us serve local families while we sprinkle joy like glitter all over Washington County. And we’re just getting started - two more IRL events are already in the works for January. 👀 Watch out, Duluth - we’re coming for you! 📅 Check the MN IRL Skool calendar for full details and links for each event. This is how we put Minnesota on the Skool map - one goose, one slice, and one act of kindness at a time. 💛

From cozy coffee shops to handmade mittens, our state is packed with local gems that make Minnesota magic sparkle a little brighter. ✨ So today’s mission: shop small, sip local, and shout out your favorites! ☕🧤🍰 👇 Drop a tag or link to your go-to MN small biz - coffee shop, boutique, gym, or your cousin’s candle hustle.
