Urban Recess produces events that are meant to bring women together to sweat, laugh, play, get a great workout and donate to a good women’s cause! Our events are structured
in a way that works as follows: We bring two teams of women (randomly chosen) together
to play recess games (tag, relay races, duck duck goose, kickball, etc) for friendly competition. The goal is not necessarily to win but to push yourself, laugh, work for your team and have a good time. We have taken the recess games from when you were in grade school and made them fit into what would be considered a good workout for an adult woman. The women who have been through our class series say that it has gotten them into some “serious shape!” 

We here at urban recess have also found that the experience derived from our events can often transcend the physical experience. Many women walk away with a newly acquired
skill (throwing a football, etc) and a boost in self-esteem due to the supportive atmosphere we foster at each event. In addition, our events are an excellent opportunity to network and make new friends in a positive atmosphere and for a good cause.

These events are not only a great experience for women of all fitness levels and ages, but they are for a great cause! Each event we chose a worthy women’s related organization to donate a portion of the proceeds to. For example, some of the organizations we donate to are Breast Cancer Foundation, Women’s Rights Foundation, YWCA, etc. We are open to suggestions for worthy organization that you know about that are in need of some attention or funding.

We periodically throw a fundraiser for a women's organization as a way to give back. So keep your eye on this page for a posting of the next one! If you would like to be put on the mailing list to stay informed on our next one, please email the Director at info@urbanrecess.com.

Are you tired of hosting the same BEER BUST on a Thursday evening to get your employees or co-workers to bond and foster a better more cohesive working environment? Are you over going to the same old tired bachelorette party? Bar hoping around downtown until the bride to be is securely fastened around the toilet bowl at night's end? Hosting your next family reunion? How about trying an Urban Recess event to get your people together and have a great time? We'll have you running and laughing like you were when you were a kid and feeling a lot better the next day too!

Please call the Director  at 503 * 957 * 0022 or email at info@urbanrecess.com for more details and/or to book an event.
