Get Healthy – June 2022

Up Blue Creek with a Paddle
Kayaking is one of the most popular water activities, and one of the easiest to learn. Take your first steps (well, first paddles) in learning how to kayak at one of the Metroparks’ Try It! classes this month, at the former Nona France Quarry at Blue Creek Metropark. Each one-hour course includes instruction and beginner-friendly activities for the novice kayaker. For adults and children 8 and up. $12. Sunday, June 5, 12:30-1:30pm. Friday, June 24, 7:30-8:30pm and 9-10:15pm. For more information, visit metroparkstoledo.org.

I just wanna bang on the drum all day
Build a sense of inner wellness, community and some banging rhythm on the second and fourth Sunday of every month with The Maumee Valley Unitarian Universalist Congregation, which has relaunched its Drum Circle Sundays, with guests of all ages encouraged to drop in. The second Sundays will be led by Deek Hermes, who will offer instruction and encouragement to drummers of all skill levels, while the fourth Sundays are led by Lynn Israel, who hosts a more loose, “jam session” style event. 5-6pm. 20189 N. Dixie Hwy., Bowling Green. 419-353-8353. mvuuc.org
