This Black Friday #OptOutside and Opt to Act!

A few years ago, REI created a movement by shutting its doors on Black Friday and asking its members to Opt Outside. This year they've decided to make a difference with Opt to Act, a nationwide clean up challenge.

On November 29th at 10 am, join the Friends of Metro Parks, Hashtag 59One80Out SupplyCliff OriginalJustMe5K52HikeChallenge & REI as we Opt Outside and Opt to Act at Scioto Audubon Metro Park.

We will meet at the Grange Insurance Audubon Center, then head out to clean up a 3 mile stretch of the Scioto Greenway Trail. All are invited to join. We'll have some fun with coffee, donuts, raffles & giveaways from our hosts. We hope that  you will Opt Outside with us, but if you can’t, check out one of these other cool #OptOutside hikes hosted by the Metro Parks!
