When I was your age, I walked three miles to school barefoot…

Daily writing prompt
What were your parents doing at your age?

Technically, the Rockford Fringe does not have parents. If anything, the Rockford Fringe is “parents.”

As parents, we create events for people who enjoy challenging themselves physically and creatively. The picture above shows Angelo as he hiked for more than two miles in his bare feet in February. To be clear, he wasn’t walking barefoot to school, he was walking barefoot for fun!

Hey, you don’t have to take your shoes off to have a good time, but if you like to think for yourself and enjoy pushing yourself in unique ways, you’ll probably enjoy hanging out with the Rockford Fringe. We host all kinds of exciting events. So if you’re in northern Illinois, join us!

Right now, we’re primarily focused on our hike-n-shares. After we hike three miles through the woods, we meet at the trailhead and share something creative with each other. If you’re interested, RSVP here.

Thanks for reading…and hiking! -Connie

Reminder: You don’t have to go barefoot! It was just something Angelo wanted to try!
