Every year we talk about the value of unplugging and getting outside and every year we stress how important that is for mental, physical and emotional heath.   It's SO important,   Now, more than ever.

We are excited to offer a week's worth of free activities in sports, arts and recreation for all ages.  We've got something for everyone.  New residents who are looking to get connected or youth trying a new activity will  both find something fun in our schedule.  All activities are free, and prizes will be awarded to those who participate in the challenges.

“Minimalism is a tool that can assist you in finding freedom. Freedom from fear. Freedom from worry. Freedom from overwhelm. Freedom from guilt. Freedom from depression. Freedom from the trappings of the consumer culture we’ve built our lives around. Real freedom.”
