Join us for a fun zombie apocalypse survival scavenger hunt! Find items & complete missions in our scavenger hunt app to survive

Ready to survive? Zombie Scavengers plunges participants into a high-stakes, app-powered scavenger hunt, transforming familiar Dayton city streets into a virtual, thrilling, post-apocalyptic battleground. Teams embark on a mission to survive by using their smartphone to navigate the city that is virtually turned into a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Teams must complete tricky challenges, solve riddles, and gather (take photos of) essential supplies to stave off the virtual undead horde roaming the city. Each mission the teams complete will earn them points on the app’s leaderboard where they can see how they have done compared to other surivival teams. Players must communicate and strategize as they work together to find essential items around the city that they need to survive. Zombie Scavengers is a dynamic and engaging activity that tests problem-solving skills, teamwork, and a healthy dose of survival instinct, making it a unique and memorable adventure through the streets of Dayton.

Join Sarah inside the Temple walls under the Full Wolf Moon to celebrate the new year with an intention setting ceremony weaved into our Full Moon Dance & Drum!
As we dance beneath Grandmother Moon, we will each set our intentions for the year ahead—2026, a year of new beginnings and abundant possibilities. With every step, every heartbeat, and every beat of the drum, we will weave our desires into the fabric of time. Together, we will create a collective prayer, a symphony of words and songs, rooted in love, clarity, and the pure joy of being alive.
This is not just a gathering, this is a ceremony—a sacred ritual to honor our personal journeys, the cycles of the moon, and the vibrant energy of the new year. Bring your heart, your dreams, and your sweet self to this evening of magic, as we move, drum, and set powerful intentions for a bright and inspired 2026 under the full moon.
All are welcome to join in this heart-opening experience. No prior experience with drumming or dance is required—just an open heart and a willingness to step into the mystery of the moonlit night.
If you have your own noisemaker (drum, rattle, tambourine, etc.) please feel welcome to bring it. We will have drums, and other instruments available too!
This is not your typical drum circle. There will be some drumming for sure, probably singing, maybe belting out, and almost definitely a specially made Spotify playlist. Come with a wild and open heart!
See you at FMDD soon, Rebels!
*Doors open at 7pm to get grounded, hydrate, and commune. If you’d like to prepare yourself a warm beverage, please arrive no later than 7:15p. The official experience begins around 7:30p.
We will end around 9pm. *Sometimes the vibe is right and we just need to keep dancing, but all participants are welcome to leave as they desire.
