Shine only event! Join neighborhood kids for our second park meet-up this Friday, May 22nd from 5-7pm. The weather looks great and Glebe Park, unlike the meadow :(, is open! We're encouraging elementary and middle-school neighbors to hang in an independent, unstructured, (device-free) way and will meet at the basketball courts at Glebe Park - 4211 N. Old Glebe Road. We will have some sports equipment, my boys will likely have scooters and bikes, and we will bring a few other fun things for them to do. Feel free to forward this to any and all neighbors that may be interested - all are welcome! Kathleen & Rachelle

Informal Sunday Play Club

May 24, 2026
10:00 AM EDT - 12:00 PM EDT
Independence And Play
Drop by Bruce Park to let the kids enjoy unstructured, mixed-age play! Adults take an intentional backseat "supervisory only" role. This is not a drop-off playgroup, however, each adult is welcome to coordinate with another adult if they want to leave their child under someone else's supervision. Kid Pledge: 1. I will play respectfully. 2. I will not deliberately hit or physically hurt another child. 3. I understand I need to get permission to leave the area. 4. I agree to listen to the adults. They’ll only get involved when they need to, and then it’s my job to listen. Parent Pledge: 1. I understand that not all kids will be happy all the time at Play Club. 2. I agree that the adults will not intervene in the children’s disagreements. 3. If my child deliberately hurts someone, they need to take a break. 4. I understand that this is a chance for my child to become more resilient, resourceful, and mature.
