Lets talk about tea, whats your favorite?

Find a Virtual Event in Your Community - 25 minutes

Today we want to explore using and finding online calendars for places that offer virtual tours or videos. 


Questions to think about while brainstorming:

  • What types of places do you enjoy visiting (what did you enjoy before COVID)? 
  • Do you like museums or community centers? Do you prefer visiting city halls, county parks, or the mall? Where else do you like to go? 
  • What types of events do you enjoy attending? Do you like sporting events? 
  • What about plays or dance recitals? 
  • Have you ever gone to watch a movie in a park?
  • Or do you prefer festivals and parades?
  •  Anything else? 

Presenter Note: 

Review places that you attended with participants. Use these places to brainstorm with the participants on places they previously visited during face-to-face program


As a group, decide on 3-5 activities or locations that you would like to research online as a team. 

Use an Internet search engine of your choice, and explore the websites of local (or non-local!) places and events that you decided upon as a group.



Take some time to brain storm activities for your time in-house and when you're out in the community. Are there any that you can try to attend as a group? 


Here are a couple links of places around each district to help get you started. Feel free to use these or not — the choice is yours!
