Site Description
This year the satellite site for the Wisconsin and Minnesota area will be in Woodbury, Minnesota, an eastern suburb of St. Paul and only 13 miles from the Wisconsin border. “Satellite site” means that services will be provided via webcast from one of the other Feast sites. While we will be a small site, there will be plenty of good fellowship.
Services will be held at the Residence Inn (205 Radio Drive, Woodbury, MN), and we have a block of rooms set aside so that brethren can stay on-site.
This Residence Inn is an extended-stay hotel and is a short drive from historic downtown Stillwater. It offers a free shuttle service, Monday to Friday, within a 5-mile radius. Local attractions include Lake Elmo Park Reserve, many good restaurants and retailers. Cub Foods, Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s are a short distance away. There are many attractions in the greater Twin Cities area as well, including Como Zoo and the Mall of America.
A complimentary breakfast buffet is provided each morning, and each room includes in-suite kitchens so you can prepare your own meals.
The hotel includes a business center, free Wi-Fi, and on-site laundry. Pets are allowed. You may also enjoy the outdoor fire pit and are welcome to utilize the patio grill.
Monday to Wednesday you are invited to enjoy the Residence Inn Mix Social Hour for snacks, drinks and good conversation.
