Saint Paul boasts the nation’s #2-rated park system including over 180 parks and the Como Park Zoo and Conservatory.

Through festivals, tours, landmarks and cuisine, a mosaic of cultures is celebrated in Saint Paul. And sports fans will find plenty to cheer about at CHS Field, home to Triple-A St Paul Saints baseball, Allianz Field, playing field for Major League Soccer’s Minnesota United and the home ice of the NHL’s Minnesota Wild and PWHL's 2-time Walter Cup winning Minnesota Frost.

Early fall in St. Paul is mostly mild weather. Check out the weather forecast here. The evenings can cool down, as can indoor spaces with air conditioning. Trying to find a room temperature at which everyone can be comfortable is nearly impossible. Therefore, we highly recommend you bring a sweater and light jacket and dress in layers so you can adjust accordingly.
Due to differences in State requirements, WICSEC is not identifying which workshops may be eligible for CLE. ALL workshops will have a sign-in sheet to prove attendance. In order to obtain CLE credit with your state bar association, you will need to self-report your CLE hours. Please contact your state bar association with any questions.
