Enjoy 7 Events Other Than The Super Bowl This Weekend in the Magic Valley

After a long week at work and a long football season, it all pays off this weekend with the Super Bowl being played. This weekend will be stacked with food, football, friends, and plenty going on this Sunday, but that is not the only thing happening this weekend. While the game will take over plenty of time, before and after grocery shopping, have some fun and check out some of the other events taking place this weekend.

Thursday, February 8 - CSI Women's Basketball

Football is not the only sport happening this weekend, as there is plenty of basketball to enjoy as well, including locally. The CSI women's basketball team is back in action at home this Thursday.
