If you were born in 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, or 2010 — 2022 is your year. Tomorrow, Feb. 1 marks the start of the Lunar New Year, celebrated by Asian countries + around the world.
Did you know? Each year on the lunar calendar is represented by one of twelve animals — on a twelve year cycle — and 2022 is the Year of the Tiger. The Tiger is said to represent strength, power, and bravery — and Tiger years are said to be a time of big changes through risk-taking and adventure. 🐅
If the mention of “big changes” makes you a bit uncomfortable, you’re not alone. While change isn’t always easy, we’re here to help make this year’s adventures and risk-taking a bit more fun.
Channel your inner Tiger + put your strength to the test at Train Yard 317 or North Mass Boulder. Take your playdates at Carey Grove Park up a notch by utilizing the free exercise equipment. Want to flex those mental muscles? Attend a trivia night at White Rabbit Cabaret or try your hand at a local escape room.
There’s nothing quite like the bravery you feel while facing your fears. If you’re looking for some more daunting tasks, hang out among the trees at Go Ape in the spring, keep everyone laughing during improv classes at CSz Indianapolis, or serenade strangers at Maru Studio Karaoke.
And, if you’re really looking to test the limits, sign up for the 500 Festival Mini-Marathon Challenges. If your name ends up on the yard of bricks, don’t forget about your pals at INDYtoday in all your newly-found fame.
