Wake Me Up When September Ends - Emo Fun Run & Social Hour!

Lace up your black Converse and smudge on that eyeliner bc our social club is closing out September with an emo-themed fun run! All levels welcome!

We’ll jog, walk, or dramatically shuffle down the trail to the soundtrack of Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and Green Day (because, obviously). After the run, stick around for a social hour where we’ll reminisce about the golden age of angst over drinks at Poison Girl. Whether you’re running for fitness, friendship, or just to scream-sing "Bring Me To Life" in good company, this is the perfect way to end September with new connections and nostalgic feels!

Event Details:

Tuesday, September 30th!

Run/Walk Start Time: 7pm

All levels welcome!
