Girls Weekend: Cinci Style

This weekend I am hosting a girls weekend in Cincinnati with two close friends from home (Columbus). Being a marketing professional, I want to have a plan ready and create some excitement for their mini-trip to the Queen City! With the help of Metromix Cincinnati, I put together a brief itinerary with a variety of options for activities and dining. I included categorized links at the bottom for more information. This list can serve as a guide for those who also find themselves hosting a girls weekend in Cincinnati (substitute Ft. Thomas for your local area)!

Below is my e-mail to the girls:


Hello Bethany and Karyn!

Let me just begin by exclaiming how EXCITED I am for our Girls Weekend: Cincy Style! Did you really think I wouldn't come up with an itinerary? Below is a brief run-down of things I thought we could do. (I considered Bethany's response for things she'd like to do: "I love to sight see, lay out by the pool, go to artsy little places?") Now, do not be worried about spending a bunch of money. This itinerary is very flexible and can be as expensive or non-expensive as you'd like! And, just in case you're wondering Karyn, there IS a T-BELL down the road from my apartment. Check!
