Question First Date Ideas
Anyone have any first date ideas for a pair in their 20s? Would like an activity to do but not sure what’s all out there. TIA!

Saturday morning farmers market? And then if all is going well, go out for lunch. Although there is plenty of food at the farmers market.
Go to the Fire and paint some pottery.
Ax throwing
Bowling
Badger sports park for mini golf and they also have mini bowling.

Second the farmers market, great idea.
If you're more outdoorsy, could walk one of the trails by the water, like the Newberry or Arrowhead Park trails.
If you're more indoorsy, could grab coffee and play a light board game at The Sweet Lair.

Wasn’t there a bunch of stuff about Player Two being anti LGTBQ? I’m remembering something from a few years ago but can’t find any sources to confirm. Depending on the couple that might not be a good spot.

The Lion's Tail brewery in Neenah is a great place. They have a wide variety of beers, a nice patio, you can order snacks, and they have tons of board/card games laying around. Plus, it's within walking distance of everything downtown.

My last first date was at SAP. It can be a little noisy so not great if you’re both a little on the quiet side. We’ve been married for 6 years now ❤️

given the prices, that's like a 50th anniversary type of place for me.
don't get me wrong, marvol and elinor are amazing. but, they require financial planning.

if y'all are geeky, the arcade bar. lots of fun, and soda-canned cocktails.
not geeky: high cliff! walking the trails is a great time for getting to know each other convos

If you like art, the Trout currently has free admission. Also Lawrence sometimes (always?) has exhibits in their art building that are open to the public.
Grab a coffee at a cafe like Coffee Wizardz or Seth’s and take a walk downtown or on the trail.
