Introducing: Taylor Baldry’s Recess Games with Grown-up Club
Join Grown-up Club in reliving your glory days through recess-style games, such as Kick the Can and Capture the Flag. Meet on the grassy knoll and get ready for an evening of dodging, capturing, and sweatbanding.
Aims to: take you back to the springtime of your youth. This event is presented by Grown-up Club, which works to connect and empower wayward adults through a diverse monthly event series.
Looks like: a group of plucky adolescents trapped in less-spry adult bodies running around the grounds of the Walker.
Will remind you of: a simpler time. A time when anything was possible. Also, it will rekindle your love of classic schoolyard games.
Useful if: you want a greater sense of belonging; if you experience shame about not fully enjoying the summer; if you enjoy lightly-competitive outdoor physical activities and sweatbands; if you like free events!
Find Recess Games at Open Field Thursdays, June 26 & July 31 from 6-8 PM
