A hand-printed SLURM poster featuring a signature SLURM splat, along with the following text: SALT LAKE URBANIST MEETUPS PLAYS Jet Lag: The Game's Hide & Seek Saturday, November 15th, 2025 @ 9:30 am American Plaza, 48 W 300 S This is Hide and Seek played in the size of cities, states, or even continents: we'll be playing roughly inside Salt Lake proper for time. Seekers ask questions off a menu to the Hiders, slowly acquiring information and allowing the Hiders to draw curse cards, as they run around the map on UTA's buses and trains. Meet at 9:30 a.m. at American Plaza to group into teamsnod 2-3 & learn how to play. We'll play 10-6 or end early once all teams have hidden. Each team will need the ability to text and send photos in a group chat, share real-time location, and look things up online, so bring what you can on your phone. The game has breaks during the 45-min. hiding time; bring plenty of snacks & water plus money if you want to buy food. Schedule updates & more SLURM: bit.ly/slurm-ut

SLURM October 18th! Meet us at American Plaza (with a bike!) at noon for a 17 mile ride with only 2 stoplights.
SLURM Poster in the style of the previous 2 events. On the top 3rd are some hand painted road signs. The rest reads as follows: SALT LAKE URBANIST MEETUPS PRESENTS: A Seventeen-Mile Loop of Salt Lake With Only Two Stoplights Saturday, October 18th @ 12p.m. American Plaza, 48 W 300 S A STUDY into the finer details of traffic laws: SLURMers on this route will enjoy total right-of-way over vehicle traffic everywhere except at a few stop signs, and they will experience firsthand a broad range of Salt Lake City crosswalks, including a couple of new ones. At the start of the ride, we will designate volunteer "corkers" to shepherd the group through crosswalks--this is an all-abilities, casual ride. Meet 12p.m. at American Plaza with your bike, or grab a Greenbike day pass. We will roll out around 12:15. Route & more SLURM: bit.ly/slurm-ut

SLURM digital splat logo, in case you miss it SLURM flyer in a similar style to last month's, the splat has not been printed on the flyer yet. The text is as follows: SALT LAKE URBANIST MEETUPS PRESENTS "BUS SERVICE!? IN MY SOUTH VALLEY?" Friday, September 12th, 2025 @ 6pm UTA's April Change Day brought--for the first time in some years-- a big increase in bus service, including three new routes: the 126, 219, and 417! They're a bit goofy and all weekday-only hourly, but let's take them for a spin! ITINERARY. 6:00 p.m. Meet at American Plaza downtown 6:27-7:00 Blue Line from Gallivan to Sandy Civic 7:09-7:29 Route 219 to EOL [end of line] at 2200 W & 14400 S Walk 2.1 - 3.5 mi. to a 126 stop 8:59-9:20 Route 126 to Daybreak Parkway 9:30-10:14 Red Line back to Courthouse Feel free to join mid-route!

3.5/10, tastes like Sysco name brand chicken strips from the air fryer
Alex and Kyle hitting their strips together, like a toast.

SLURM August 9th! Meet us at American Plaza at Noon for a trek to the Jordan Landing Cinemark to try what some say are among the best chicken tendies in Utah, maybe ever. Details in the flyer below!
A scanned image of a press-printed flyer for August's SLURM (kyle did this). A SLURM Splat takes up the top half of the page, with the following text contained in a box on the lower half: SALT LAKE URBANIST MEETUPS PRESENTS "CHICKEN STRIPS WITH SLURM" Saturday, Aug. 9th, 2025 @ 12pm A 2022 SLTrib article named the chicken tendies at the Jordan Landing Cinemark some of the best in Utah--- and not even in a real restaurant. Find out with us what exactly the deal is and how dubious the transit there is! ITINERARY. 12:00 p.m. Meet at American Plaza downtown 12:36-1:13 Red Line from Gallivan to Jordan Valley 1:24-1:24 Route 240 to Jordan Landing (later) Return via Red Line as convenient Feel free to join mid-route if that's better for you!

Reposting our evil plan from last year for those out of the know.
A hastily made edit showing plans for SLURM: Meeting here (American Plaza, south end) -> taking this (TRAX Green Line) -> to the best UTA station (North Temple) -> to catch (FrontRunner) -> to here (Provo Central) -> so we can hang out here (Downtown Provo) -> then head here (Provo Amtrak) -> to ride (Amtrak California Zephyr) -> home!
