Everett Top 5: Fall Frugal Activities
Editor's note: updated 10/11/18.
In case you're busy budgeting for the holidays, check out these five fall frugal activities you can still enjoy in Everett on a budget.
#1) Enjoy the color
This ones obviously simple, but the turning leaves won't be here forever. Enjoy one of these fine Fall days by simply bundling up and taking a stroll on one of the trails Christopher Bragg has been writing about.
Cost: Free
#2) Disc Golf at Silver Lake
After you look at the leaves long enough you're probably going to get bored. Why not add some activity to the mix and play a round of disc golf? Thornton A. Sullivan Park at Silver Lake has a great 9 "hole" disc golf course. Other than scrounging up your discs to play with, it'll cost you a whopping zilch. Of course, when you accidentally throw your disc straight into the lake it might cost you a little embarrassment.
Cost: Zero (other than bringing your own golf discs).
#3) Check out the Imagine Children’s Museum
Need something affordable to do with the kiddos? Thursdays from 3-5 at the Imagine Children's Museum are only $6. Kids under 1 are free. (They have a free Friday every month, too)
Cost: Free (If you plan your calendar right)
#4) Test your wits while you wet your whistle
Also known as Tuesday trivia night. $2 per person, Tuesdays at 8 p.m. at The Irishman or Emory's. Or save your $2 and check out Scuttlebutt Taproom and Restaurant’s (they do trivia at both locations) free trivia every Tuesday at 7pm. The Independent Beer Bar also does free trivia the last Wednesday of each month.
Cost: Free-$2
#5) Dollar Bonanza Bowling at Evergreen Lanes
Some of these rainy fall nights can be a little depressing. Sounds like prime bowling time to us. Thursday nights after 9:30 p.m. all games, shoes, coffee, soda, hot dogs, french fries, nachos, and 10 oz. domestic beers are all only $1.29 each. Be extra cheap like us, and BYOBS (Bring your own bowling shoes).
Cost: $1.29-? (Depends on how many hot dogs you eat)
