Are you looking for things to do?

We’ve got some ideas for you! These activities are designed for you to do on your own, with your family, or while social distancing with others. If you would like some structure, you can do activities on their assigned days. However, feel free to do them whenever you would like! Our goal was to give you some ideas to spice up your summer.

Let us know which programs you do - we’d love to hear about it and see your photos!

Here’s how we’ve loosely structured it:

• Mindful Mondays - start your week out by calming and focusing your mind

• Crafting and Cooking Tuesdays - get creative with fun crafts and recipes

• Workout Wednesdays - get your body moving, go outside, be active

• Thoughtful Thursdays - do service, be kind, activate your mind

• Free Fridays - join us for a lunch hangout, do activities you missed during the week, anything you want!

  • Lunch Hangouts every Friday - password required. Text (828) 263-1770 or email staff@mountainalliance.org to receive the password. No registration required.

• Live Streams - there are a few events that seemed interesting that we have added in

  • Anything listed with a time other than 12am is a live stream or event that is time sensitive.
