Springfield Visiting Springfield Massachusetts

Hi there people of Springfield

I'm going to Springfield this weekend, long memorial weekend for two nights. What are some activities to do? I know about the Basketball Hall of Fame, Forest Park, Dr Seuss. Where else are there to visit?

I don't mind if it's greater area of springfield. I'm coming from New York.

Thanks so much.

West of Springfield you have the Berkshires, which have some cute artsy towns (Lenox, Stockbridge, etc.). If you are into art, visit the Norman Rockwell museum near Stockbridge. The website www.berkshirelinks.com has a list of things to see and do in the area.

I've never been hiking around there, but I know that there is a mountain named Mount Tom that I have seen articles about.

Not sure if it is your thing but Six Flaggs will be opening daily on June 22nd. The Quabbin resvoir is close by for some good scenery. Old Sturbridge village is not to far away either. Have a great trip.
