35 Free/Low-Cost Date Night Ideas in AZ

With families as the epicenter of our legacy here at Lee’s ATA Martial Arts, we recognize that frankly, we wouldn’t be here without you, the parents! You sacrifice for your children every day and that in itself is worthy of praise. You pick them up from school, get them dressed, haul all of their gear around, and then you even sit through their class and keep up with Parent Meetings, Tournaments and Testing Cycles. Being a Karate parent is not an easy task, so we applaud you for simply even showing up.

That being said, if we want your support on the things we believe to be beneficial for your child, we want to make sure we are servicing not just your child, but your entire family. If we want to see our communities, our cities, and our neighborhoods changed for the better, this begins in the home, with our families. Thus enters a little something we like to call Parent’s Night Out!

Parent’s Night Out is a pre-planned date night opportunity for parents.

This is one of the few times that we discourage you from coming in and sitting to wait for your child to be finished with class. We don’t want that this time. We want you to drop them off at the door and go have a night out on the town!

Here are all of our upcoming PNO’s:
(Also known as “Ninja Nights” at some locations)

We know that dating isn’t always easy. It requires planning: a babysitter, an actual date and location, and of course the funds to do so. But guess what? We’re here to take some of that work off of your plate so we’ve compiled a list of Friday night date ideas complementary to our scheduled Parent’s Nights Out.

These Friday Night Date Night Ideas range from FREE, to LOW COST, to “MORE BUT WORTH IT.”
