Celebrate National Day of Unplugging in the Treasure Valley

Technology has done great things for us. It’s made our lives a lot more convenient, and has also kept us more connected to each other than ever before. Unfortunately, you’ve probably noticed that it can be a bit disruptive and keep us from fully engaging and living in the moment if we aren’t careful.

Live Music Boise

Cutting out technology temporarily and living the old-fashioned way is starting to become a growing trend. Even apps on the phones themselves have jumped on board with timers and locking functions to help us unplug. There’s a national holiday too: National Day of Unplugging. On March 6th, celebrate by putting the phone down and spending some time out in the Treasure Valley. Here are a few ideas.

Experience the Local Music Scene

Boise has a ton to offer, including top-tier local and touring acts performing nightly across town. From the small dive bars to the arenas, there’s a venue for every type of artist, including some of the best jazz live music Boise offers at Chandlers. When you go to the show, don’t hold your phone up and block the view of the people behind you. Instead, just sit back and watch as you soak in the sounds and sights—and, if you’re at Chandlers, enjoy fine dining as well.


Go for a Long Stroll

Between the Boise River Greenbelt and the downtown area, Boise is surprisingly walkable. The weather is finally starting to feel more like spring, and National Day of Unplugging is the perfect excuse to leave the phone at home and just go for a stroll with friends and family. Are you ready for a different kind of “livestream”? Find a spot on one of the many benches lining the Boise River Greenbelt and enjoy the beautiful day as the river current passes by.


Discover New Parts of the Area

Even if you’ve lived in the Treasure Valley for years, you might be surprised how many local attractions you’ve yet to see. Living and working in the Treasure Valley often confines us to the same areas without ever venturing out to explore. With so many attractions like the World Center for Birds of Prey, the Old Idaho Penitentiary, the Boise Depot, or even just the hiking trails that line the foothills, it’s worth seeing these sites.


Enjoy a Phone-Free Meal

One of the places where phones should be off-limits is the dining table. Even so, it’s hard to walk into any restaurant and not see at least a few people glued to their devices. If you’ve been guilty of being distracted by texts and emails while dining, leave your phone in the car and just let the best seafood Boise offers be the entire experience. You’ll have a far more memorable time with a friend or loved one than if you had let distractions impede the conversation and dining experience.
