About the event

Lawn games and leisure sports are a wonderful way to appreciate the longer days and warm weather. They are approachable for many age ranges and skill levels and are a fun addition to any picnic or family game night! Expand your repertoire of outdoor activities as we explore, strategize, and play leisure sports together. Join us each session to learn the rules, history, and etiquette of a new lawn game.

Join us in learning the game of horseshoes. Horseshoe pitching is a classic lawn sport with courts available here at Lake Crabtree. Come discover one of the only times that “close counts.”

All minors must be accompanied by a registered adult.
