Urban Expansion: Glow sticks on a high ropes course

As I was eating lunch at Yats with my in-town-from-Chicago friend Ann last weekend, I saw a group of fit young people in green shirts that said something about a challenge course.

Being chatty and curious, I had to ask about it.  They all were grabbing a bite to eat after a morning working a high ropes course on Butler University's campus (10 minutes from my apartment.)  Since I kept asking questions, one mentioned that they were hosting a free community day on the course with glow sticks for a night climb on Friday.

I've finally been in town long enough to know a couple people who would be as excited about high ropes courses at night as I am, so I've just gotten back and have several glowing accessories to show for it.


Growing up in a summer camp-y community and an outdoorsy family, it wasn't my first ropes course, but it was the first time since early during undergrad and definitely the first time 25 feet up at  night.

Feels good to do something that made me nervous (other than parking) for the first time in a while.
