FIUTS Friday-Explore Washington Park Arboretum & Ginger Beer

Did you know the Washington Park Arboretum expands across 230 acres and includes a vibrant collection of more than 40,000 plants from around the world? During this leisurely afternoon visit, you'll have the opportunity to explore trails and wildlife of your choosing with fellow FIUTS friends. After visiting the Washington Park Arboretum, participants will travel together to Rachel's Ginger Beer at the University Village Shopping Center. There, you will have the opportunity to try different ginger beer flavors like original, mango, white peach, and pink guava. All are welcome!

What is ginger beer? Ginger beer is a non-alcoholic beverage made with a blend of ginger, water and sugar. For those 21+ with valid photo ID, there is an option to add alcohol and make your ginger beer a "Moscow Mule" at Rachel's Ginger Beer.
