Radar: To Do in PHX 7.7-7.10
We’re here to ease you into some out of your comfort zone events. This week’s digital radar is your guide for events that are for everyone everywhere. Choose between some light rugby that won’t bruise your body or your ego or skip that and just eat as much BBQ as possible. Meet your friends at the crossroads or make some new friends with some improv. Whatever your tastes are, feel certain that Phoenix is your place for active living. Note: Some descriptions courtesy of event hosts and edited for clarity.
