That’s a wrap on Teen Tuesdays for the summer! For our final Teen Tuesday of the season, we took it on the road for Teen Tuesdays on Tour! We headed down to Tucson with a few Phoenix teens who wanted to join the fun and spent the day at Main Event bowling, playing games, and enjoying one last summer hangout.

Hard to believe summer is already coming to an end, but we couldn’t have asked for a better way to wrap up another great season. Thank you to everyone who joined us this summer; we loved spending Tuesdays with you!

P.S. We had to reference Camp HONOR’s crowd favorite “Girls Trip” skit from MBA if we’re going on a road trip!
