Saturday, September 14, 2024 • Sheboygan, Wisconsin
Come to Wondernite and stay for a remarkable members-only experience on Saturday. Join us on the edge of Lake Michigan for an amazing day filled with fun, inspiration, and comradery in a very unique location: Kim and Jason’s backyard! There will be yummy food, yard games, a mastermind discussion, and a movie under the stars as a full moon rises above the magnificent lake!
Oh yeah, and you’ll also have the rare opportunity to tour Jason’s art studio and see his latest works in progress! 😮
If you’ve ever attended an Escape Adulthood Summit, you’re going to love this! The Wonder & Whimsy Society has often been described as the family you choose. We’ve created this intimate event as a way to gather that family in person and deepen the relationships that have been cultivated online throughout the year. We’ve built in some of the best parts of a Summit with some new elements an experience like this allows. It’s like a family reunion and backyard BBQ on steroids!
Agenda of Activities
🌼 Wonderhunt with Kim
We’ll kick things off at one of Kim’s favorite places to Wonderhunt. You’ll get some of her best tips, a chance to explore nature with friends, and the opportunity to enjoy early autumn in Wisconsin! You’ll need a camera (a smartphone works), but no actual photography skills are required.
🥗 Lunch Bunch Mixer
You’ll be grouped with 4 or 5 other members for a relaxing lunch at a surprise location in Sheboygan. This an awesome way to meet new people and enjoy some delicious food!
🧸 Show & Tell
After lunch, we’ll all convene in Kim & Jason’s backyard for the remainder of the day. Bring something that reminds you of your childhood because we’ll be doing a group Show & Tell, like in kindergarten.
🛝 Recess
There will be plenty of downtime built-in to chill out, play games, and have great conversations.
🎨 Studio Tour with Jason
Everyone will get a chance to tour Jason’s personal art studio and see his latest works in progress.
🍔 Good Eats
Dinner and snacks will be provided by some of the best vendors Sheboygan has to offer!
🔥 Bonfire and S’mores
After dinner, we’ll fire up the bonfire and toast some marshmallows. Sample a smorgasbord of treats and assemble your very own gourmet s’mores!
🍿 Moonlight Movie Night
As our day winds down and the moon rises over Lake Michigan, we’ll pop some popcorn and fire up a classic Adultitis-fighting movie to watch together.
