Great Ideas to GO!
Get Outdoors Weekend
April 13-15, 2012
Getting outdoors isn't difficult or expensive. Anyone can do it, with nothing more than a pair of shoes and a sense of adventure. Grab a friend and explore your outdoors, be it at home, down the block or across the province!
- Walk your dog (or borrow your neighbors)
- Visit a playground
- Ride your bike, rollerblade or go skateboarding
- Play tag!
- Go birdwatching!
- Grab some friends and play a game:
- Soccer, Frisbee, football, street hockey, whatever you like!
- Explore your backyard and get in the spring spirit by taking out all your lawn furniture.
- Work in your garden
- Go hiking!
- Visit a local nature centre or connect with a local nature Club
- Move your gym routine outdoors
