Inexpensive Dates
(for Ages 16-18)
Create a list of 20 somewhat obscure words. Then go to the library and have a contest. Twenty minutes to collect books which contain each word (one point if the word is inside, two if on the cover, three if in the title). Winner gets to choose dessert.
Pick up your date and a chaperone and go on a canoe ride on a lazy river or canal. The chaperone's job is to row while you entertain your date and/or eat.
Go to a sports memorabilia exposition or trade show.
Spend less than one dollar for dinner and movies. Go to the grocery store to sample free food items. Then go back to your house to watch a video. Snacks that you can scrounge from around the house don't count against the dollar.
Make tiny parachutes from square pieces of cloth. Tie string from each corner, connect string ends with a little weight, and launch them with a slingshot.
Invite everyone to bring a white t-shirt to decorate. Buy some dye, string, and set to work tie-dying the shirts. A different, colorful design might be just the thing to dress up that old shirt.
Go on a hay ride (the bigger the group, the better). Check with the host before you start a straw fight. Have hot apple cider when you return.
Ride the bus or subway around the city.
Choose a topic of interest to the members of the group that requires some preparation. Ideas: Book review, spiritual discussion, political events, etc. Schedule monthly chats, with the host home to provide refreshments.
Buy a short "dimestore" romance novel and take turns reading it aloud to each other. Use your own names in place of the lead characters.
Wash your clothes together at a laundromat.
Go to a driving range to practice golf. Many golf ranges offer lessons.
Prepare a new dessert or main dish and serve it in a creative way to your parents or friends. Finish by washing the dishes together.
