Outdoor Jamboree – Please bring anything your kiddo(s) like to use on pavement. The plan is to close off the top parking lot with a line of cars + make obstacle courses out of our giant space. We also have gymnastics equipment to share (Thanks, Erin!) + I will bring sidewalk chalk. The kids can use 3-wheels, scooters, skateboards, bikes – whatever they like. If you can fit it into your car, you can bring it!
