Coaches will be on hand to teach the basics you want to learn, and kids will have their own activities and games to play, including crafts, family-friendly axe throwing, and lawn games.

Keep up your strength with a visit to one of the participating food trucks or cool off at the beer garden. And if shopping’s your game, play your way through sales and specials on outdoor activity items, athleisure apparel, and more at participating merchants!
