Event details
Come play in the woods for Unplug Illinois Day! This statewide initiative encourages people to unplug from their electronic devices and plug into play, creativity, friendship, adventure and family. Grab some neighbors, friends and family to get outside with us for field day games and activities you loved growing up and minute-to-win-it challenges that will have the whole crew laughing! Make it a competition or play just for fun! Try your luck at games like three-legged race, bucket toss, shoe kick, cookie challenge, giant Jenga and more. Come ready to enjoy the outdoors free of screens and take a break from the hustle of a busy season.
Each registered participant will receive a free hot dog, beverage and side from Lil’ Deb’s food truck plus a raffle ticket for a chance to take home your choice of prizes to keep you connected with your loved ones!
Events like Field Day Unplugged are made possible with the support of volunteers. For information on how to assist at programs like this, view our volunteer webpage.
