🎃BAR CRAWL🎃
4PM-10PM
Our crawls are often called "Make Your Own Adventure Crawls". The reason for this is that we have a ton of bars, drink specials, and other things going on, but we don't have a set agenda. The reason we don't have a “bar 1, bar 2, bar 3” format is because most of the time our crawls are so large that many of the bars are not large enough for the whole group. If 500 people show up to one bar at the same time, you would have to wait an hour just to get one drink!

THE PATRON SAINT
🎃AFTER PARTY🎃
10PM-12AM
All of our After Parties are chosen to be the best late night atmosphere, typically there is a DJ or Band. Remember when our after party starts, most of our deals and specials end with the other bars on the crawl. So don't be late and get to the after party! Don't forget your friends, and don't forget to plan a safe and sober way home!

Sat, Nov 2, 2024, 9:30 AM EDT🍁🍁 Fall Colors Hike - Shades State Park 🍁🍁
Shades State Park, Waveland, IN
It's the most beautiful time of year, so let's hike Shades State Park! In this hike we'll catch the last of the fall colors in one of the best state parks in Indiana.

We will have a morning hike at 11am on trail 10 where we'll do the Pine Hills Nature Preserve. Return to Parking lot @ 12:30 for Lunch. From 1-2:30PM hike trail 1 where we'll do prospect point. So if you can't make the morning hike, you can meet up at the parking lot by 1PM for the PM hike.

Bring your lunch & snacks along with water. Also, it could be a bit chilly, so bring extra layers.
Here is a map of Shades State Park:

If you want to carpool, we'll meet at Kroger at 10679 N Michigan Rd. Zionsville.
If you don't carpool, the meeting location will be the Pine Hills Nature preserve Parking lot. Please reach out or post in the comments if you'd like to carpool. Take the first right past the gatehouse. GPS 39.9330, -87.06172
As always, I will reschedule this if it rains on that day.
I hope to see you on this adventure! See you there!

P.S.
I (Brian) am a forester, and can answer any tree questions you may have as we hike. Why is it called Shades? What is the history of the park? What's that tree? Why is the sky blue?
Simply put, you don't want to miss this trip. It will be a great adventure, and well worth the drive.
