HEAR ME OUT DEAR RUTHIE | SPONSORED BY UW CREDIT UNION

THINK OUTSIDE THE SHOT GLASS DEAR RUTHIE, I’m 23 and I’m already tired of the bar scene. My boyfriend is too. Any ideas on how a couple can find some fun in this town that doesn’t involve bars? For what it’s worth we’ve only been dating a few months, so we need some romantic time that doesn’t include a bartender!

THANKS,

Bored Benjamin

DEAR BENJI, You’re screwed. This is Milwaukee, and there’s a bar on every corner for a reason. (And that reason is that bars are friggin’ awesome!) But truly, honey, if bars aren’t your thing, there is plenty for a young couple to do in Cream City. It’s not that hard, sweetie. Take a spin class or have a spa day. Set out to create the world’s best lasagna recipe together. Volunteer as a couple. Create your own tour of local galleries. Take up gardening together…or learn karate or line dancing. Try laser tag. escape rooms, hiking or biking. You just need to think outside the shot glass. See my social calendar for even more ways have a good time in Milwaukee. Then get out there and enjoy summer!

XXOO
