🚨 HEY COUSINS, KINFOLK, PLAY COUSINS & FRIENDS! 🚨
This month, our regular Hike & Chill is getting a SPECIAL EDITION twist as we celebrate FOUR YEARS of community, connection, play, and wellness with Let’s Get Social Raleigh. ✨
This celebration feels even more special because we're also celebrating officially becoming a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping adults reconnect with themselves, others, and nature through play, movement, community, and authentic human connection. 🍃
For the past four years, y’all have shown up for the recesses, hikes, game nights, conversations, healing, dancing, laughter, and community — so we wanted to create something that feels like all of that combined into one experience. 🤎
Cousins Picnic in the Park is our August Hike & Chill experience elevated with family reunion vibes, Black joy, slowed-down "being," movement, creativity, wellness, and community care.
We'll start the morning with our monthly 3-mile walk through the beautiful trails at E. Carroll Joyner Park. 🚶🏾♀️🌳
AFTER THE WALK...
We'll enjoy a community-curated picnic experience where EVERYBODY contributes to the vibe. 😎
We would love for you to bring that hobby, talent, or thing that brings you peace and share it with the community.
