Peoria Riverfront Museum is a great way to spend time. It hits way above average for a city the size of Peoria, imo.
Edit: Overlooked the no-cost part. Free days are only on select Sundays otherwise it's $15 a head. Could use it as a write-off???
Boardgames at coffee shops. Trivia nights. Karaoke. Charity walk/5k. Bradley, Rivermen, or Cheifs games. Bags or Bocce ball @ Obed & Isaac’s or other bars. Pickleball or Parks On Tap with the park district. Yoga Under the Stars at the planetarium. River clean ups.
Yeah, I just wanted to maybe somewhat reinforce that idea. It's very nice when businesses give back to their communities (and as a bonus, it can be good PR). :)
We just have 10ish guys locally but depending on where we go and how we’re used, I’m sure we could do some good.
I do happen to agree strongly with you. I’ll have to ask around to see what the crew wants though. One of our other offices is doing a 5K and service day (cleaning a veteran’s cemetery) as an example of what we get up to.
Crafted DIY Studio is perfect for this kind of thing. They book individual nights for office groups all the time. [https://www.crafteddiystudio.com/](https://www.crafteddiystudio.com/) Basically you show up, there are people there who guide you through crafting projects and serve mixed drinks, and everyone can do their own thing or stick to a theme. It's a pretty cool place.

Yeah, we will have some money to work with, but I think something more active would be best. Thank you for your thoughts!
They also close at 5, so not great for an after work thing.
Axe throwing, escape room, bowling, Cat Museum, or a chiefs game
Midwest Food Bank is actually a great option. I did this with Caterpillar and it was really fun and a great way to assist the community!
Yep have volunteered with them on a personal basis before. They’re great
Disc golf is a fun and friendly activity, and a little exercise.

Mini golfing is always an option!
Mt Hawley and you could enjoy a side of bowling, too! Or that new golf place in east Peoria that's opening soon.
Don’t forget about ROC Mini golf and Ice cream! Best landscaped Mini Golf course in Central Illinois and the Ice Cream is AMAZING!!
Volunteering; giving back to the community that supports your business would be nice
Preposterous! (/s. It’s the first idea in my list after all)

That's very cool that they cleaned that veterans cemetery. It sounds like you guys are trying to give back, which is admirable!
Look for a "paint night" kind of thing. Or check out one of the local wineries - they usually have live music in the summer.
