Weekly Wins: Things to Do in DC 7/18 – 7/24
We can all agree that what Bryce Harper did at the Home Run Derby on Monday was LEGENDARY. We also have some legendary offers and events this week that will be sure to please all you DC folk.
Kick off the second half of July with a free Balance Gym workout and then reward yourself with a BOGO selection from Chipotle. We’ve also got pop up dinners, brews at the zoo, wine tastings galore and even an epic cornhole tournament.
Just like always, the fun never stops rolling here in DC and be sure to share your experiences with us on social using #FrayLife!
