Weekly Outings - Team Trivia!

Looking for something fun to do on a week night when you aren't really feeling the wild and crazy bar scene? Try a local trivia night! I have been going to one on Wednesday nights at Tin Roof Nashville with my co-workers and it has been a blast! The one at Tin Roof is sponsored by a company called Team Trivia that sets up trivia nights at bars all over the United States. Check out the company website for a location near you!

If you are a Butler student or live in the Indianapolis area, you are lucky! I am going to do all the hard work for you and tell you all the trivia hotspots close to campus. (And there are quite a few! YAY!)

925 E Westfield Blvd.
Indianapolis, IN 46220

**NOTE: Notice all of the locations for Team Trivia nights are at bars, so most likely there will be a "Trivia Special" - $5 pitchers anyone? I think so!

Another great thing about Team Trivia game nights is that, most of the time, there are prizes (gift certificates, cash prizes, etc.) for places 1st-3rd. Did I mention that it is free to play? So, grab a group of friends and enjoy each other's company while exercising your brain with a friendly game of trivia - and who knows, maybe you will kick some butt and actually win something!

Grab your coolers - it's time to go ca-brewing!

Ca-brewing - the art of simultaneously canoeing and drinking.

Embracing the torrential downpour and making the most of our day in the great outdoors!


This weekend I went back to Indianapolis and some of my friends had planned a canoeing trip for Saturday during the day. I joined them on this adventure and couldn't be more happy that I did! Although we didn't have the best weather, it was still an amazing trip and I am definitely happy that I went.

We went to Blue's Canoe Livery (about 45 miles from Indianapolis). This is where we rented our canoes and grabbed some life vests. From there, a schoolbus took us to the water where we went down a seven mile trail. It took us about 5 hours to complete the seven miles, but we stopped at the half-way point to take a break and do a little bridge jumping (probably not the safest thing we have ever done, but we are all still alive and healthy!) You could probably get the course done in an 1.5-2 hours if you try really hard. It ended up costing about $20 per person and was worth every penny!

Grab your bathing suits, coolers and best friends and enjoy a day full of laughter, exercise and memories that will last forever!
