Is Your Family Ready for the Life Outside Challenge?
September and October are prime months for outdoor family fun, so kick off your fall with the Life Outside Challenge! Discover the more than 128 miles of paved greenways across the St. Louis metro area during September and October, try free challenge activities, win prizes and discover new places! And, since life outside is all about fun, it couldn't be easier or more fun to participate.
What's the Life Outside Challenge?
The Life Outside Challenge is a free, fun way to get outside and try new things on the greenways all across St. Louis. Greenways are more than bike trails (although those are pretty great!). Some of the challenge activities include walking for 20 minutes, picking up 20 pieces of litter, listening for birds and making pieces of art from a leaf you find along the greenway. (Learn more about the Life Outside Challenge activities here.)
And get this:
• There's no registration, no fees, no deadlines (yes, everything is FREE!)
• Participate in as many or as few challenges as you want. If you do 10 of the challenges, you can log them and receive greenway prizes
• Take part in one of the FREE Life Outside Challenge Meetups to complete multiple challenges in one day.
Activities at the Meetups include:
• Guided Greenway walking tours
• Children's book readings
